By Molly Given and Kayla Cavanagh — Written on May 13, 2022
It's Friday the 13th and we all know what that means — unlucky occurrences like tripping over your shoelaces, knocking over glasses, and waking up after your alarm are just a few of the possible horrors the superstitious among us believe are likely to happen on this infamously bad luck ridden day.
What better way is there to counter anything bad these days than by turning the situation on its head with some funny memes?
If you want to counteract the potential bad luck associated with Friday the 13th, there are plenty of superstitious remedies people have come up with. Salt, a lucky rabbit's foot, a blessed crystal are just a few items people have used to ward off evil spirits.
But really, there is no telling what works and what doesn't. The power of the mind is probably your best bet, as positive thinking can go a long way.
