Here is where we write down all the bad luck we had today. Then on Monday we'll do the same and see if there's a correlation.

So far:

1. Missed the train to work (but I do that every day and I wasn't late).

2. Didn't have time for breakfast.

Wogan Lenin (dog latin), Friday, 13 January 2006 09:57 (twenty years ago)

AHHHHHH! You missed the other thread!

1. Stabbed to death by knife wielding manic in hockey mask

2. ...

My horoscope says I'm going to have a pretty rotten day today, full of misunderstandings, unhappiness, and being ignored by friends.

Maybe I should have stayed in bed today.

C J (C J), Friday, 13 January 2006 10:06 (twenty years ago)

I am a bit ill, but I was more ill yesterday so technically it's actually an improvement. I'll work on it.

Markelby (Mark C), Friday, 13 January 2006 10:10 (twenty years ago)

So far my day is pretty fucking awesome.

Sick Mouthy (Nick Southall), Friday, 13 January 2006 10:11 (twenty years ago)

I had difficulty getting up. I doubt this is really that much to do with the date, though.

tissp! (the impossible shortest specia), Friday, 13 January 2006 10:15 (twenty years ago)

xpost but did she know it was Fri 13th?

mark grout (mark grout), Friday, 13 January 2006 10:16 (twenty years ago)

Markelby you lucky sod, i'm feeling worse today.

Ste (Fuzzy), Friday, 13 January 2006 10:18 (twenty years ago)

I failed to get house seats for the Tintin stage show - does that count?

Markelby (Mark C), Friday, 13 January 2006 10:51 (twenty years ago)

F word. I have a job interview today.

Eric H. (Eric H.), Friday, 13 January 2006 10:55 (twenty years ago)

bad luck: I have to go and see my friend's friends' bad band, tonight

and go to a co-worker's flatwarming but I don't mind that (apparently, myl0 will be there -- sort of mind that!)

RJG (RJG), Friday, 13 January 2006 10:57 (twenty years ago)

i overslept and i am going to work. neither of these things are bad in themselves, but AAAAAARGH!

emsk ( emsk), Friday, 13 January 2006 10:59 (twenty years ago)

I know you don't get hangovers, but you should have a rotten one. ;-)

My bad luck is that I have a hangover. Ugh.

Beauty and the Beastliness (kate), Friday, 13 January 2006 11:01 (twenty years ago)

My bus was held up by film crew vehicles for 10 minutes. I couldn't see what was going on so asked the driver to let me off. As soon as I got off the traffic cleared and the bus sped off.

I think this is just dumb on my part rather than bad luck though.

Sororah T Massacre (blueski), Friday, 13 January 2006 11:01 (twenty years ago)

haha (sorry for laughing but that is kinda funny to imagine)

Ste (Fuzzy), Friday, 13 January 2006 11:07 (twenty years ago)

Maybe they'll use it in the film.

Sororah T Massacre (blueski), Friday, 13 January 2006 11:14 (twenty years ago)

I was born on a Friday the 13th
Tupac died on a Friday the 13th
guess that means I live forever

LC, Friday, 13 January 2006 11:18 (twenty years ago)

Uh.

I was born on Friday 13th.

Sigh

Yep.

emil.y (emil.y), Friday, 13 January 2006 11:33 (twenty years ago)

LC (crying), Friday, 13 January 2006 11:38 (twenty years ago)

Happy birthday emily!

maaaaaaaaaaad unicorns babe

LC, Friday, 13 January 2006 11:49 (twenty years ago)

Hehehe. I didn't say I was born on THIS Friday 13th. (It was one in February. In 1981.) Is yours this one, or another again?

emil.y (emil.y), Friday, 13 January 2006 11:56 (twenty years ago)

But since Friday the 13th only happens about once(?) a year, wouldn't it be cooler if you'd celebrate your birthday whenever that happens?

Tuomas (Tuomas), Friday, 13 January 2006 11:58 (twenty years ago)

happy birthday

RJG (RJG), Friday, 13 January 2006 12:01 (twenty years ago)

Like the people who were born on February 29th have their birthdays only once in every four years.

Tuomas (Tuomas), Friday, 13 January 2006 12:01 (twenty years ago)

yeah! and we can dress up as VAMPYRRRRRRRRRS!

NOT!
(tackles emily, squeals something about candy and mp3s, twinkling like a Rolex on the green green grass)

LC, Friday, 13 January 2006 12:03 (twenty years ago)

Oh! and to answer your question ms. NOT TUOMAS aka B*F*F*4evr! yes I was born in another month as well and today is not my birthday

SLAYER

LC, Friday, 13 January 2006 12:13 (twenty years ago)

"Ms. Not Tuomas"?

Tuomas (Tuomas), Friday, 13 January 2006 12:14 (twenty years ago)

Right, each month has a 13th.

Each week has seven days.

So, each month has a 1 in 7 chance of having a Friday 13th.

As the distribution is spread out, there is no chance that two consecutive months can have Fridays the 13th, unless a non-leapyear February has one.

Anyway, this means that each year can have from 1 to three friday 13ths.

Bop.

mark grout (mark grout), Friday, 13 January 2006 12:15 (twenty years ago)

In that case... ALL Friday 13ths are definitely my birthday. I demand presents.

LC, Friday, 13 January 2006 12:24 (twenty years ago)

Why is the pic titled "camelhorse"? I see no camel.

Tuomas (Tuomas), Friday, 13 January 2006 12:33 (twenty years ago)

It is only the toe of the cammel.

Disciplining And Controlling My Mind (kate), Friday, 13 January 2006 12:34 (twenty years ago)

There's a bit of a camel there...

Onimo (GerryNemo), Friday, 13 January 2006 12:34 (twenty years ago)

xpost :)

Onimo (GerryNemo), Friday, 13 January 2006 12:34 (twenty years ago)

Where? I try to squint my eyes but see nothing.

Tuomas (Tuomas), Friday, 13 January 2006 12:37 (twenty years ago)

I was also born on a Friday 13th. Nothing bad has happened to me today except that it's cold, rainy, and I'm supposed to drag myself into Dublin later today to go for drinks with people from work and I just don't want to.

It's not that I don't want to meet them, I just hate actually having to go places.

accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Friday, 13 January 2006 12:37 (twenty years ago)

yeah so happy birthday to whoever it is it was my birthday on 9th but whatever
nice pic the horse has the right idea.......
hehehe

lewis (lewis), Saturday, 14 January 2006 01:11 (twenty years ago)

I don't think I got the job, in all likelihood, but at least a horseshoe didn't drop on my head right before I reported for the interview.

Tomorrow night is the full moon. Dodged a bullet.

Eric H. (Eric H.), Saturday, 14 January 2006 04:11 (twenty years ago)

I know you don't get hangovers, but you should have a rotten one. ;-)

nah, no hangover, sorry - oh i mean HURRAH! i escape hell for er a bit more time. tho i did try to pick up the veg bag on the way home (it isn't open 24hrs but you can get in if you have the code and i do) and BAH THERE WERE NONE LEFT! people stealing our napples and nonions, fuckers. also i was still a bit drunked on the way to work i think.

emsk ( emsk), Saturday, 14 January 2006 05:24 (twenty years ago)

My bad luck for the day is, since monday is a holiday and Caltrans doesn't work, I'm not working. And not getting paid for the one-day layoff sucks donkey dong.

van igloo (van smack), Saturday, 14 January 2006 05:46 (twenty years ago)

Some skinny meth-addicted hippy just sold me a bag of wadded-up green newspaper ('killer bud') for 40$. I wish I could blame Friday the 13th for my stupidity.

Vuillard, Saturday, 14 January 2006 10:39 (twenty years ago)

three years pass...

Two in a row? DAMMMMM

Twitter Shitter & The Purple Hernias (Upt0eleven), Friday, 13 March 2009 08:58 (seventeen years ago)

Very apt: discovered my grandfather has cancer today.

that's awful..i'm so sorry:(

cob nobblin' (latebloomer), Friday, 13 March 2009 10:05 (seventeen years ago)

Well, he's 83 years old. It's a slow developing cancer and he'll get meds that will not cure it but at least slow it down. Still, shit, cancer, y'know, it sucks. :-( I knew it cause my gran had mentioned something "vaguely" about hearing the word chemo.

Amber was asking where did the whole "Friday 13th" unlucky thing come from.

One theory was about how the twelve disciples, the thirteenth brought bad luck, combined with Good Friday.

I dunno.
