I avoid being superstitious about it being Friday the 13th.
Have you ever had any "que the Twilight Zone music" weird,strange or funny things happen on a Friday the 13th ?
Not especially. Have had weird days on different dates. Should I be worried about those dates now?
Bonus Question: Have you ever tried or gotten into a car that looks like yours, but wasn't ?
Sure I once walked up to the trunk of a car just like mine and tried to unlock it to put shopping bags in it. About the same time I was wondering how much it would cost to fix a trunk lock that was obviously broken I noticed a scratch in the paint and thought, "When did that happen?" Then I noticed the license plate was different.
If you park next to the same type of car especially if it is the same model & color and the other driver was there would you say "hey look we have the same car" or something along that line ?
