This wank posting thing is addictive. Moving along:

Someone decided to go into [info]scorpio_forum on LJ and post a message that consists of, more or less, "Scorpios suck, and here's why."

Needless to say, the community's not too happy.

The wank also continues briefly in a new post.

The highlight of this thread is the Scorpios getting annoyed about the OP making broad generalizations and then making statements like "a pissed off female Scorpio is like Lady Macbeth on crack." Which admittedly is a hilarious mental image, but it's also pretty wanky to say 'no generalizations' and then generalize yourself. Some of the posters also say "we're not all controlling psychos!" and then continue, "Aquarians are all inflammatory!" (The OP being an Aquarian.) Some of them are obviously joking...but some of them seem serious.

Best comment is from [info]muninx: "Everyone makes assumptions that I'm some sort of cruel, sex crazed maniac, and I'm really sick of it. I know this isolates me from 90% of this community, but the reason I'm here is to deflate some swelled Scorpion heads and to offer non-scorps like you an alternative viewpoint."

In other words, "I hate when people assume that I'm like the rest of you."

Does this mean I can now blame the fact that I turn into such a horrible, conniving bitch when I'm hungry and/or cranky that my friends have started calling me "Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde" on my astrological sign now? Sweet!

I turn into a horrible, conniving bitch when I'm hungry and I'm a Capricorn. Can I be an honorary Scorpio?

I don't get astrology. Apparently my birthday has fucked me over somehow and I'm both a Saggitarius AND a Capricorn? Does that make me a horny goat? WTF?

My head hurts, but hee for the 'please stop being on my side, you freaks.'

If you get me started on astrology, I could go on for awhile...

Though cusps are a whole wank in themselves. "You're only one sun sign, dammit!" vs. "Not true, cusps show traits of both signs!"

yeah, that sounds accurate. Except for the brains part.

Also a Virgo. I'm about to go insane, having read all of that, and seen "conceited" misspelled about 30 times.

Seriously, I can't get over people taking this astrology thing SO seriously. I especially can't get over people saying things like, "Everyone has X trait, regardless of Sun Sign," and "There are a lot of other factors that go into your personality," and so on. Then what's the point of astrology, dammit?

Everyone should be made to take enough astronomy and physics to understand why astrology is bunk.

Oh, and I'm about the messiest and least detail-oriented person I know (unless I'm editing). *snort*

Speaking as a Cancer/Gemini I can't decide what to think about this, and I can't stop crying about it.

But really, how can you take someone seriously when the first line of their post contains the words "something striked me". Obviously it wasn't a grammar book.

I really wish I could believe in astrology, since it seems cool, but I'm an Aries, and...really, really not. I have no leadership qualities and am very unaggressive. Not shy, in fact quite gregarious, but not assertive in the way Aries are supposed to be. My brother, though, is Aquarius and fits it exactly.

I don't want to know which zodiac sign you are. Yes, I mean you. No, not even if you mean it tongue in cheek or sceptical-like. Yes, I'm moving on and not reading this wank, thanks for the good advice.

I was such an astrology-whore in high school. I'm a Capricorn with an identity crisis. Capricorn is the worst sign of the zodiac. So I embrace my Gemini rising instead ;) Ambitious and responsible my ass...
