Title: Are you a gemini?
Post by: chanf on September 23, 2005, 07:11:39 am: I am wondering how many readers of Achewood are gemini's-- gemini's are known for their off/witty humor: is this true? I asked onstad, but he didn't know!

Post by: V-Adore on September 23, 2005, 02:56:30 pm: Virgo over here. I have been told, straightfacedly, that this is why I don't believe in astrology.

(My birthday was yesterday, on the cusp, so I might technically be a Vibra.)

Post by: acoxcae on September 23, 2005, 03:20:25 pm: First, and possible most important:

Happy Birthday, V!

Second, and of dubious importance:

I am a pisces. I don't feel that this has affected my sense of humor at all.

Post by: Bobby Isosceles on September 23, 2005, 06:15:01 pm: I'm a Scorpio. This means I am supposed to be a conniving, amoral sex addict. I don't believe in astrology, but I do believe in being a conniving, amoral sex addict.

Post by: slink on September 23, 2005, 07:10:54 pm: Gemini/Taurus cusp...
Apparently makes me thoughtful, creative, and a jerk...
Title: Are you a gemini?
Post by: misterqueue on September 23, 2005, 07:55:47 pm: Not that anyone knows me nor cares but I like broadcasting useless near theological month based belief systems on the net to a bunch of strangers.

Which could only mean I was a Pisces... if I believed that sort of thing.
Title: Are you a gemini?
Post by: wombat on September 23, 2005, 07:57:55 pm: Onstad replied to that question?

Not that I put any stock in this sort of thing, but I think I'm a Capricorn/Aquarius cusp, which I believe makes me an incredibly uptight creative type (Like, the kind of person who doesn't put any stock in this sort of thing and yet nevertheless knows enough to be able to answer the question...) Which is a pretty screwed up combination, let me tell you.
Title: Are you a gemini?
Post by: pmcd9 on September 23, 2005, 08:17:46 pm: I'm a Carpricorn, but I don't know what a cusp is. I do know that I am a Sundays child which explains why I am "bonny and blithe, and good and gay."

Oh, man, let us not get into the issue of "sign vs. SO's sign." The same friend who told me that I didn't believe in astrology because I was a Virgo reacted to my announcement of my SO-havingness with "his birthday is in August, right? So he's a Leo? A Leo and a Virgo -- that's so weird."

(must control retroactive fist of death...)

Post by: Limmo on September 23, 2005, 09:35:06 pm: Astrology is complete bullshit, a pre-Copernican belief system that has no bearing on anything at all.

So I don't see why comparing SO signs is such a major faux pas, as opposed to just giving your own. It's a real lateral move in terms of actual bullshit content.

Y'know?

Y'know?

Well, yes, I get you. At the time it just pissed me off quite a bit because I basically said "hey, here is this person who means a great deal to me, and I would like to share knowledge of this person of great value with you, who I consider a trusted friend" and the response was "oh, you two were born in arbitrary months? This makes your relationship strange!"

So it wasn't the sheer bullshit level, it was the inappropriate bullshit context. If that makes any sense at all.

As it is, I'm a boring ol' hoss born in '78.
Title: Are you a gemini?
Post by: Choop on September 24, 2005, 05:01:08 am: Near-cusp-Libra, Dragon.

Oddly, both seem to hold true. I don't believe in any of it, mind you, but all the same.

Happy b'lated b'dayj, V.

Post by: Lister on September 26, 2005, 04:53:50 am: I far prefer my Chinese zodiac sign (Dragon, attuned to Fire) to my plain-ol'-zodiac zodiac sign (Cancer).

Both are deadly, but only one can be blamed on cigarrettes and Sweet 'n' Low.

I'm not sure exactly what these are supposed to mean about my personality, because I tend to put more stock in personality tests that are based on things I actually do. On my own.

Taurox sounds like an interesting brand name for an energy drink made from beef broth that is lauded with taurine.

Also: for Chinese Zodiac I am a Earth Mare ( I can't type h.o.r.s.e.... this is new) and my SO is a Metal Cock. Yes, he is a Metal Cock, and he says it proudly.

Also: it is the year of the Rooster (Cock), and there are signs all over Chinatown reminding us of this. It's Chinatown.

Also: hello, I am back.

Post by: side_show on September 30, 2005, 01:06:47 am: Happy Belated Birthday, Choop!

Also, Belated Birthday update: At the Indian Restaurant the Henna artist who set up shop at a back table would not shut up as she spoke with the owner at a level that everyone else at the restaurant had to talk over. She spoke loudly of how she hated children until she was about 25. She said this over and over and over with very little variation in conversation for around 25 minutes. I was so distracted by her loud talking that I actually enjoyed my Vegetable Korma less than I should have. Her voice made food less delicious. Then I suddenly got a migraine so debilitating that we had to leave immediately, and I sat on the couch at home with my SO occasionally bringing me ice packs to put on my head. I sat there for the rest of the night, while the phone rang and different members of my family left birthday wishes for me on our answering machine as I sat right next to the machine feeling grouchy and not picking up.

Also yesterday, on Ch oop's b-day, I made the woman actor in my play cry, and I hurt my foot in a way that made it unbearable to walk.

Apparently 27 is over the hill for me.

Post by: side_show on September 30, 2005, 01:11:25 am: Belated Birthday update: Two days after the fact I realize that I failed to drink Champagne on my Champagne birthday.
