Paraskavedekatriaphobia

Yes, it’s Friday the 13th again. The 13th falls on a Friday more than any other day of the week, so get over it. It’s only valid in in English and Portuguese speaking countries, so go visit a Spanish-speaking neighborhood for the day.

If you want to blame someone, it’s the calendar of Pope Gregory XIII that created this imbalance. [He obviously didn’t have a problem with the number on any day.]

Why does everybody talk about the horrors of Friday the 13th, but nobody talks about the horrors of Saturday the 14th? 🙂

You do realize there’s a reason it isn’t discussed. 😆
