No, not the shitty ass movie.
Yes, the awesometastic day.
It is my favorite non-holiday day. This year it comes right before Valentines day, my least favorite holiday day.
Why do I like it? Because it's a lucky day, no matter what anybody tells you.
See, I've found out through the years that bad things do happen to people on Friday the 13th, but there is almost always someone who benefits from that bad luck. Vending machine eat you money? Hey, that's a free soda for me when the things quits buggering out! Had a bad breakup? Hey, that means one more single lady on the market (I do not profit from gay misfortune in this case).
Sure, some bad things happen in a vacuum. You stub your toe, nobody profits. You fail a course, nobody profits. But those are exceptions in the vast pool of misfortune!
Hell, if someone fails one of my classes, that means there is one less person for Munkus to compete with for the high grades. When grades are scaled, other people's bad luck is your own good luck!
See? It might be good luck, or it might be bad luck, but it always a lucky day. People are just pessimistic, so they are more likely to focus on their losses than their gains.
So here's to Friday the 13th! May you all have lucky days!
