Buy it.
​It's Friday the 13th.

What's good about it: There's not another Friday the 13th movie coming out.

What's bad: Awful things may happen to you, according to tradition, lore and urban legend.

If you're scared of today (and no, we're not going to attempt to look knowledgeable by cutting-and-pasting in the name of the phobia), here are 13 ways to instead embrace the day.

13. Listen to Black Sabbath's debut album, released on a Friday the 13th in 1970.

12. Ladies: Buy a 13-inch dildo (in "caucasian"!! Go team!). Guys, too, if you're into that.

11. Read the 13th book in Sue Grafton's Kinsey Millhone alphabet-mystery series, M is for Mailing It In.

10. Make a pilgrimage to Buffalo to visit the gravesite of Millard Fillmore, 13th President of the United States.
