I'm seriously starting to get annoyed at how many people ask me for my astrological sign - not out of some kind of circuitous attempt at flirting, but as a serious attempt at gleening actual information about me.

The next question is always "what's your rising sign?". I don't even know what the fuck that is (nor do I care to).

People's capacity, in this culture, to believe downright stupid shit is phenomenal - from obtuse conspiracy theories to daft health superstitions to all manner of hocus-pocus.


grrrr



:P

Tell them you sign is the "The Fist" and your rising sign "The Phallus".

Explain it is "Babylonian Astrology" then complain loudly how you cannot get decent Canadian anti-psychotic medication in Belgrade.... :-)

Superstition is a form of primitiveness if you ask me

lol @ Jonathan :D



Now let me close the window. This special, deadly, Serbian draft might kill me (admittedly this seems to have less traction than it seemed to 15 years ago)
