the 13th post...



This is my 13th post.
I don't know how i survived for so long...
Never thought i would make it this far,
Never knew i could write so much. Never knew i had the patience.
Kind of scary, just like it isn't the real me. isn't it.
The number "13"
This son of a bitch has a scary tinge to it.
Since childhood we are fuckin scared of this number.
I am shit scared of  "13" and i ain't messing up with this dude

The fear of the number "13" is called TRISKAIDEKAPHOBIC and it was derived from treiskaideka, the Greek word for thirteen and phobia.
Maybe i am TRISKAIDEKAPHOBIC, maybe not...

"13" The British Navy built a ship named Friday the 13th.
On its maiden voyage, the vessel left dock on a Friday the 13th, and was never heard of again...

"13" The ill-fated Apollo 13 launched at 13:13 CST on Apr. 11, 1970. The sum of the date's digits (4-11-70) is 13 (as in 4+1+1+7+0 = 13). The explosion that crippled the spacecraft occurred on April 13th (however, not a Friday).


"13" Many hospitals have no room no.13, while most of the sky-scrapers skip the13th floor.
 
"13" Butch Cassidy, notorious American train and bank robber, was born on Friday, April 13, 1866.
 
"13" Fidel Castro was born on Friday, Aug. 13, 1926.
 
"13" President Franklin D. Roosevelt would not travel on the 13th day of any month and would never host 13 guests at a meal.
 
"13" Napoleon and Herbert Hoover were also triskaidekaphobic, with an abnormal fear of the number 13.

"13" Superstitious diners in Paris can hire a quatorzieme, or a professionallly paid 14th guest.

"13" Mark Twain once was the 13th guest at a dinner party. A friend warned him not to go. "It was bad luck," Twain later told the friend, "They only had food for 12."

"13" Woodrow Wilson considered 13 his lucky number, though his experience didn't support such faith. He arrived in Normandy, France on Friday, Dec. 13, 1918, for peace talks, only to return with a treaty he couldn't get Congress to sign. (The ship's crew wanted to dock the next day due to superstitions). He toured the United States to rally support for the treaty, and while traveling, suffered a near-fatal stroke...


"13" The number 13 suffers due to its position after 12, according to numerologists who consider the number 12 to be a complete number. Hence, we have... 
12 months in a year,
12 signs of the zodiac,
12 gods of Olympus,
12 labors of Hercules,
12 tribes of Israel,
12 apostles of Jesus,
12 days of Christmas &
12 eggs in a dozen.

 

I, thefallenhero, would like to pay a Tribute to "13"
for being so unlucky for so many people, so far...

Hence, as a mark of R.E.S.P.E.C.T. to "13" ,
no drunken typing, no narcotic thinking, no abusing google and everything else good...
no big ideas, no innovative gimmicks, no constructive criticism, no selective sarcasm. No real takes on pot-holes, no pot shots at hot shots. No bull-shit, No non-sense, No short-takes on GOOGLE AD-Sense, Sorry NO OFFENCE. No religious sentiments, no frivolous adjustments. no PR, FR, CR. whatever that means... you figure it out. phew...

And with this, i conclude this post ( i don't wanna fuck with the "13" )

HOLY fuckin crap.... this is actually my 15th post.
Then in that case....
FUCK "13".
This number has been fucking everyone since a long fuckin time.
Sometimes, when i sit down and think,
"It's high time we give it back, give it back to bad luck...
                                                                   and give it back with interest"

I fall again, but this time around, i just missed my bad luck...

thefallenhero,
for 99% shall always remain in my blood...
