Hoy es el viernes el trece!!! (today is Friday the Thriteenth!) Eeks!
E-gads (new phrase) how many people out there are still supersticious? I tell you, mostly Friday the Thriteenth goes unnoticed for me- or else I notice it on like the 20th, WAY afterwards. Why is it so unlucky anyway? I was readng this thing on AOL research and learn, and it said that it has something to do with the bible. About the 13 people at the last supper. I ask you- who cares? The bible is a vastly overrated novel. Trust me- stupid Catholic School forces me to read it. And I read lots of books, ad trust me- the bible is not the best one.
Of course, not to mention the fact that the things we have superstitions about are WAYWAYWAY stupid. I mean- a black cat walks in front of me- E-gads, shoot me in the face, gag me and call me Phil. (that was several phrases rolled into one) Oh, and I spill salt, I'm gonna die now. I think tha was just made up so that lazy people coould get out of cleaning up their spills. Oh, and let's not forget the ladder thing. Like, who cares if you walk under one? I doubt it'll kill you.
However as stupid as the superstitios are, the good luck charms are even stupider. (Yes,its a word- if enough people use it, it becomes a word, and trust me, lots of people use it.) Honestly, who carris horse shoes around??? Sounds like that one was just a reason for some packrat to keep all his horses' old shoes. And four leaf clovers- those are just a result of a genetic mutation (Daggy told me, guys) How lucky could a mutation be? Although, I can see the point of a lucky rabbit's foot. Any dead rabbit seems lucky enough to me. Maybe not the rabbit, however...
Today's Zelda wisdom: If you're afraid of Friday the Thriteenth, you have fear of the nuber thirteen, called Triskaidekaphobia.
