slo’s FRIDAY the 13th poll - Unlucky Day 1️⃣3️⃣

[AppleDumpling]

Not unlucky for me. Never give it a thought. Not the 13th, but Friday is the day I was born, married, and became a Mom.

Busy day!

13 is my lucky number and a Friday the 13th is usually a good day (or at least not a bad one).

It’s just another day for me. I do say “knock on wood” on occasion, so I guess I’m a little superstitious (or as they say on The Office, I’m not superstitious, but I am a little stitious.)

I was kind of superstitious when I was a kid and teen but even back then I realized it was a bunch of malarkey. I “believed” more for fun.

Don’t walk under a ladder, don’t step on a crack in the sidewalk, broken mirrors, etc.

As a child, I remember a parakeet died on June 13, a Friday. I wondered about the coincidence. I’m not superstitious.

 

[clappyclaps]

I'm not superstitious about Friday 13th at all, it's just a day although I like to jokingly blame the day if something goes wrong. I have had a rather interesting 6 hour journey today but I'll blame others on the road, not the date!

I am not a Templar, so no impact for me.

Superstitions seemed to have had more meaning back when I was young. Was that because we were kids, or have they just faded a bit over time?

Now I often don’t even realize it is a
Friday the 13th. Someone texted me about it this morning, so I did know about this one. But until reading about it again here, I hadn’t thought of it since then.

 

[HopperFan]

I like Friday the 13th!

I don't have superstitions, but Friday, Mar 13, 2020 (during planet alignments too) was the day we learned our school was going full remote for the pandemic. We had school that next Monday, but mainly to throw Chromebooks at the kids and tell them how to find our on-line classrooms. We teachers haven't forgotten that Friday the 13th .....you should see the side-eyes we give each other whenever the 13th falls on a Friday now.

I had a good day and had fun with a neighbor's puppy.

 

[WorldWacky]

March 13, 2020…absolutely, @CGB, day we’ll never forget. But other than that, I don’t think anything of Friday the 13th. Full moons in schools on the other hand…

Agreed, 100%!

My Maternal Grandfather was on a British Navyship during WW1 that was attacked. It was a good/lucky day for him as he survived with no serious injuries. Even luckier for his descendents. It happened several years before he married my Grandmother. Mom wasn't born until 14+ years later.
Our rehearsal dinner was on a Friday the 13th. When people asked if I was worried, I just said for my family it had been a good day in the past.

 

[mamarachel429]

I don't think it's a bad day at all but my daughter did have a crisis this past Friday t he 13th so yeah... don't think it had anything to do with bad luck

13 is my lucky number and I wore it in all the sports I played growing up.
