Get the Nathan Triska mug.Tris (greek for three) deka (greek for 10) phobe (an individual affected by a certain fear) effectivey a triskaidekaphobe fears the number thirteen, or situation that involves anything in a 13 sequence... When a group of 13 objects is divided into two, three, four or six equal groups, there is always one leftover object. it is believed that Loki in the Norse pantheon was the 13th god. This was later Christianised into saying that Satan was the 13th angel. in a lunar calender there are 13 months as there are thirteen full moons a year, however the christian calender is only 12 months long... often times elevators in taller buildings skip the number 13.... the folloing is from wikipedia.com: The composer Arnold Schoenberg suffered from triskaidekaphobia. It is said that the reason his late opera is called Moses and Aron, rather than Moses and Aaron (the correct spelling with two As) is because the latter spelling has thirteen letters in it. He was born (and, it turned out, died) on the thirteenth of the month, and thought of this as a portent. He once refused to rent a house because it had the number 13, and feared turning 76, because its digits add up to thirteen. In an interesting story, it is believed that he feared Friday, July 13, 1951, as it was the first Friday the 13th of his 76th year. He reportedly stayed in bed that day preparing for what he thought as his death day. After begging her husband to wake up and "quit his nonsense," his skeptical wife was shocked when her husband simply uttered the word "harmony" and died. His time of death was 11:47 p.m., 13 minutes until midnight. Also, note that the digits of the time of his death add to 13 (1+1+4+7). end wikipedia.com quote
sitting at a table of thirteen is especially bad as it is rumored that one of those 13 will die within the year...
you refuse to buy that house because the house number is 13, you are such a triskaidekaphobe!

were 13 people present at the
"Last Supper", Jesus and his 12
Apostles. Some say that
Judas was the 13th to
join the table & he later went on to betray Jesus. This may be the
origin of the superstition which led to "Triskaidekaphobia" i.e. fear of the number 13.

Get the Triskaidekaphobia mug.In the sovereign debt crisis, beginning approximately in 2009, in the European region which uses the Euro as currency, three institutions, the European Central Bank (ECB), the European Commission (EC), and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) have taken the responsibility of monitoring the crisis and making policy recommendations. Collectively, these three are, sometimes irreverently, called the Troika.
From the blog www.nakedcapitalism.com, March 4, 2013:
"Even though we were keen about how voter repudiation of austerity in the Italian elections last week was throwing a wrench in the Troika’s austerity plans, we also warned, based on the example of Greece, that they’d try to neutralize the results."

Get the triskadecaphobia mug.Trostamon is a word you say when you are under surprise or shock. It could also be dropped into sentences to add effect to it, or a swear word. It was made when the word was accidently said instead of "Thomas the Tank Engine" by three twelve-year-olds.
