Am I a Jinx

The dictionary says that a jinx is one who brings bad luck and to jinx someone or some thing is “To foredoom to failure or misfortune.” Unfortunately, my track record would indicate that I am one who is subject to an unlucky force, and this connotation brings on words like hex, curse, spell, voodoo, sabotage, and phrases such as evil eye, unlucky charm, kiss of death, and one I'd never heard before, “Point the bone at.” Not that I'm superstitious or anything, but if I point a finger at you, you might want to run!
