Friday 13th is coming, I tremble with fear, something bad always happens to me on that stupid day. This year i have resolved to tough it out all day in bad, at least that way i will not be prone to bad things happening. What is your views on it? Has anybody else had bad experience on this weird day. clicky

When i was a kid, an unfortunate incident occured, which resulted in me getting soaked with urine, I can still remember the nasty names the other kids used to shout at me.... wetpisskid

I usually choose my own bad luck and then get on with the day...

ie. you get up on Friday 13th to find there's no milk for your breakfast cerial (or something equally trivial) -- that's your bad luck right there. Rest of the day there's nothing to worry about

nothing ever happens on Friday the 13th

although it probably will now

Same here. I just get drunk the night before, if i have a hangover on the friday that's my bad luck.:D
I can't remember anything too bad actually happening to me on friday 13th. But then i'm someone that would consider 13 a lucky number (personally).

A couple of years ago my sister did a bungee jump in New zealand on friday the 13th, nothing out of the ordinary happened to her apart from she hurt her stomach muscles a small bit. I don't think she noticed that it was friday the 13th when she did it, I had to point it out to her when she came home and showed me the cert saying that she did it.

One Friday the thirteenth, at school, two friends of mine lost their keys and one lost their jumper.

We also saw a bird that was in the process of being eaten by another bird fly away. That was weird.

The last Friday the 13th (or maybe the one before), someone shot a roofing staple in my hand, a power surge occured at work, my pet got sick and i had to go to the hospital to get the staple removed. Think i might stay in bed this time.

well if there's 12 months in a year there's 12 thirteens. there;s 7 days in a week so id say the probablity is 7/12 that a friday the 13th will occur once a year. or just over 50%. and in two years 7/12+7/12 or 14/12 is the probablity a friday the 13th will occur.

Lol. Just to be a nerd its 1-(5/12*5/12)=119/144, or 83%.

It's all about mental attitude - If you worry too much and really believe something bad will happen, it usually will. Positve Mental Attitude, people!!
