Does anyone here read horrorscopes? Whether you believe them or not. I used to scoff a them, but I recently got one of them Starscroll things, and for some strange reason I'm absolutely obsessed with it at the moment and it's even starting to dictate my life.

 

Am I becoming one of those arty-farty-hairy-fairy people?

Never. Too painful.

Oh no. Now I'm listening to Aqua. Aqua is coool ;)

i read them, but i don't believe them. sometimes things they say come true, sometimes they don't, i really think it's just sheer probability that things do come true. if you tell someone every day they're going to meet a tall dark handsome man, or come into money or something, then chances are one day you're going to be right

 

i do however hold some belief in astrology. i am almost a textbook example of a cancerian

 

astrology and horoscopes are two totally different things

They are dodgie. Think of it like this.

 

Say "Today" can be represented as the number 100.

 

100 = 100 things happened in that day.

 

Crap'o'scopes (aka horrorscopes) say "15" things.

 

those 15 things happened in your day, theres like 85 other things to compare to as well.

 

EG 2.

 

"Johnny sucked up to his boss, and he was rude to him behind his back. Coke machine stole his $2 and didn't give out a drink. He also found out that his girl friends car needs a service, when she said it didn't"

 

horrorscope for Johnny "You're so charming with that devil-may-care grin and sparkle in your eyes. Make sure you exercise all that stuff with extra care right now, though. Someone might be taking you a little more seriously than you think"

 

You can crap-ily relate alot of that stuff to "Johnny's day" -

-You're so charming with that devil-may-care grin and sparkle in your eyes = Johnny sucked up to his boss, and he was rude to him behind his back

 

-Coke machine stole his $2 and didn't give out a drink = Someone might be taking you a little more seriously than you think (for the religious)

 

Anyone get what i mean? - you can relate anything in your day to what your horrorscope tells you.

 

*GAY*

yeah....

but if yours said, "avoid trucks" i bet youd be looking out for them on the motorway ;)

Today, mine says:

 

Promoting your brillian brainchild or a partner's clever plan gives you a competitive edge.  A long-distance linkup leads to lucky news that paves your way to future success.  Romantic signals are "Go!"

 

Woo hoo!

"There's travel in your future when your tounge freezes to back of speeding bus"

 

An exercise for the interested reader: Look up the song by Weird Al Yankovic. I think it's called "Your Horoscope for today" or something like that.
