You know how many people fear the number 13 because it's "unlucky"? Well, ever since I finished TLJ, it is one of the lucky numbers for me. Case in point: when I went to the driving theory exam today, I was assigned the seat number 13--pulled it off without a single error. So... yay to TLJ for subverting triskaidekaphobia? How do you feel about that number?

Well, in Jewish culture the number 13 symbolizes a number of good things actually and is considered by many to be a lucky number, I never feared it, nor do I believe strongly in it being a lucky number, got not special feeling about it, my preferred numbers are 6 & 7, don't ask me why, I can't explain.
Here's a little from Wikipedia about 13 in Judaism:

13 is the number of duality. 6 is supposedly the "bad" number and 7 is supposedly the "good" number. Together they make 13.

A year ago I travelled (alone) to neighbouring region - by train. It was September 13th, place 13. And nothing happened - I spent good time and returned home fresh and happy. (I visited one good professional who is a famous and kind person. )
But I'm afraid of 13, to be honest.

Yeah, I've heard from some people that this number is their lucky one (I'm not from Israel, though).
So do you think that you thinking that thinking of it gives it meaning gives what you think meaning, as well?
OMG. Sounds like cycles in programming
