You may be suffering from triskaidekaphobia. It means you fear the number 13.. If this is you.. post here!

Only because it's my brother's favorite number. He's a libertine so it doesn't really bother me.

triskaidekaphobia - noun

Thirteen people, pledged to eliminate triskaidekaphobia, fear of the number 13, today tried to reassure American sufferers by renting a 13 foot plot of land in Brooklyn for 13 cents . . . a month.

I think the constant and excessively obtuse rejoinders are only serving to embrangle the general discourse in ancillary goals. More-over, I think some people have colluded against mem simply for the pecuniary benefits; the desideratum should be to expound on a topic without befuddling the reader.

Oh, good job, Fex.

Nicely done, Verifex, but you really could have capitalized my name at the least...
