It's Friday the 13th! This can mean only two things: disaster is imminent, or you're going to get yourself a sweet discount tattoo. However you're celebrating—er, observing—this folkloric faux-holiday, you deserve to know why it's so spooky in the first place.

The origin of Friggatriskaidekaphobia (the fear of Friday the 13th) are a little muddled, but it's often associated with two ideas: that thirteen is an unlucky number, and that Friday is an unlucky day.
