Finally, another Friday the 13th!
Wait, why am I so happy for it? Duh, you hardly have it once a while. What about
leap day? Who cares about that unless you were born on that date. Sorry, leap day birthday boys and girls, but you just have one legitimate birthday two months ago.
According to
Wikipedia:
On average, there is a Friday the 13th once every 212.35 days (compared to Thursday the 13th, which occurs only once every 213.59 days).
The distribution of the 13th day over the 4,800 months is as follows:
| Day of the week | Sunday | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday | Friday | Saturday |
| Number of occurrences | 687 | 685 | 685 | 687 | 684 | 688 | 684 |
You only have one Friday the 13th nearly every 7 months on average. But for more interesting fact is Friday 13th occurs little more often than 13th on other days. Does that mean we are doomed if you believe Friday 13th is bad luck?
Well, that may be possible and
2012 Apocalypse could be like nothing at all after you read the following from same Wikipedia article:
The asteroid 99942 Apophis will make a close encounter with Earth, closer than the orbits of communication satellites, on April 13, 2029.
Furthermore on
99942 Apophis:
However, a possibility remained that during the 2029 close encounter with Earth, Apophis would pass through a gravitational keyhole, a precise region in space no more than about a half-mile wide, that would set up a future impact on April 13, 2036.
and
As of October 7, 2009, the probability of an April 13, 2036 impact is considered to be 1 in 250,000.
Boy, how can you not like this 1 in 250,000 chance? It's much better than hitting the
Jackpot of Mega Millions. 1 in 175,711,536, okay, much much more better. You don't even need to buy a lottery ticket and everyone is eligible to win it and it is automatically collected. No need to worry about your identity to be revealed or
become a mystery. Don't worry about being contacted for a interview or potential documentary. Need no fear of money that could tear your life apart or change your personality or your family. Worry not about self-titled-friends show up at doorstep telling your about their mothers falls of stairs and break bones, need a huge amount of money. With 2036 Global Jackpot, everyone is the winner, you get nothing to worry about the previous nonsense. Shame, April 13, 2036 is not a Friday.
If Apophis doesn't hit us or you can't wait, be sure to check out the
possible lotteries table that NASA put up for us. There are many more lotteries which provide much higher winning odd than
Apophis.
Truly, you don't need to concern if you don't like winning such lottery. By the time of impact if there is a definitive one, and if we humans haven't nuked the hell out of each other, we probably can already develop much more powerful space missile and kick the asteroid's ass before it even gets close to Mars's Solar System's orbit.
If we can't stop the asteroid, Skynet probably can save us while they control the ground. If Skynet can't, T-Virus may already transform us into zombies and zombies don't feel anything. So, we are totally fine.
If none of those happens, we only need to survive from World War III and wait for the alcoholic Dr. to build the first man-made warp-capable engine in April, 2063, then Vulcans will come to us! Even Captain Jean-Luc Picard and his Enterprise will be here, too. They can just use tractor beam to alter asteroid path. It's
already written. We will be fine.
Okay, what if asteroid impact before 2063? Easy, we just demand Stargate Command for free passage, all humans relocate to other planets. Problem solved.
Hold on a minute, asteroid? What the heck?
Back to the Friday. Speaking of Friday, you getta have the lamest theme songs:
Friday and
T.G.I.F. (in 80s)!
I have to say I had never watched those two music videos before. After I watched them, I realized that
Void Rays really is a parody. Then WTF, Rebecca Black is in T.G.I.F., later WTFF, Kenny G?
Finally, WTFFF is this post? I'm not even drinking.
