With a global pandemic shaking the financial markets and a military escalation between the U.S. and Iran, this has been quite a week — so it is not surprising that people are freaking out. Of course, the fact that the work week draws to a close on Friday the 13th is some next-level irony, so kudos to whatever cosmic force made that call. As you might expect, there are a fair number of people on social media — both serious and joking — who have quite a lot more to say today than they would about a “normal” Friday the 13th when it didn’t seem everything was already on fire.

Jason got it right

Just play it cool.

Nobody needed this

This person is all of us.

It’s always been Friday the 13th

Never tell me the odds

We got a comedian over here.

Somebody somewhere might be having an even worse week

I mean…at least he has a plan.

Oh, man, and it’s the first one of the decade.

Just try not to think of what the next one will be.
