Do you believe that Friday the 13th is a bad luck day?

Fun fact:

Every month that has a Sunday that falls on the 1st will have a Friday the 13th in it.

Food for thought. :wave:

I don't believe in Friday the 13th being bad luck but the 3 this year are 13 weeks apart and I thought that was odd and should get the superstitious really going.

No...I actually feel they tend to be lucky days! We've had quite a few over the past couple of months actually...interesting!

Nope, never have suffered from friggatriskaidekaphobia, (fear of Friday, the 13th), and hadn't considered it luck or unlucky.
One can lead a horse to water however, if one holds the horse's head under, that horse will drown.

I actually kind of treat Friday the 13th like Halloween again. I don't see it as a bad luck day. Just an excuse to eat junk and watch scary movies.

No I don't believe a number can control the fate of a day.  I just heard on the radio yesterday that Taylor Swifts favorite number is 13... I don't believe in lucky numbers either though.

The number 13 doesn't bother me and Friday the 13th is just like any other day to me. The San Jose couple who traveled to New York and won the Mega Millions surely doesn't think so.

I think it is all bull. I do not believe that Friday the 13th is bad luck. It's cool for making movies.

I don't believe that the day represents bad luck for me, personally....knock on wood...lol!  I do believe that people create their own self-fulfilling prophecys in that by thinking they are more likely to have something happen to them on that day, it will.  Or perhaps bad luck that would have happened to them on any day just happens to get labeled a Friday the thirteenth happening because of landing on this auspicious/superstitious holiday! In any case I wish all of you the best of luck in all that you do!
