If You Fear The Number 13 You Have Triskaidekaphobia
Do you at all times try and avoid the number 13 or just simply fear it? If you have a fear of the number 13 and absolutely HATE Friday the 13th, you suffer from Triskaidekaphobia.
Triskaidekaphobia is when someone has extreme superstition regarding the number thirteen. I can say I definitely suffer from Triskaidekaphobia because of my reactions with THAT number. I noticed when driving if I need to lower the volume and it lands on 13, I quickly turn down the dial. Not only that, a day like today sure does keep me on my toes because of my previous bad luck from the others. Fox News sure does do justice explaining the number thirteen and the bad things related with it. Next time you're at a hotel that has more than 14 floors check the buttons in the elevator. Some hotels actually jump from the 12th floor to the 14th floor leaving out that bad luck number.
You will remain anonymous if you choose to take the poll below on whether you fear the number thirteen.
