Quote:
A Friday occurring on the 13th day of any month is considered to be a day of bad luck in English, German, Polish and Portuguese-speaking cultures around the globe. Similar superstitions exist in some other traditions. In Greece or Spain, for example, Tuesday the 13th takes the same role. The fear of Friday the 13th is called paraskavedekatriaphobia, a word that is derived from the concatenation of the Greek words Παρασκευή, δεκατρείς, and φοβία, meaning Friday, thirteen, and phobia respectively; alternative spellings include paskevodekatriaphobia or paraskevidekatriaphobia, and is a specialized form of triskaidekaphobia, a phobia (fear) of the number thirteen. Friday the 13th is also called "black friday" in many countries.
Wiki

Also some unfortunate events happend with me that day. One of my relative went into a coma, he died the following day . I filled up my vehical with petrol arround 10:30 PM and gave a credit card, they guy at pertrol station said the swipe machine is broken , went to the ATM and even that was broken managed to find another AMT. All these events happend on Friday the 13th

That was my point. A date is just a bunch of numbers. Human beings can twist the information about however they please to see patterns, but the date is just the date (and honestly, our concept of "date and time" bears no meaning to nature...the earth was spinning around the sun long before we thought up a numbering system to support the concept of "dates"...so it's all somewhat irrelevant).
