The Coast's astrology column-- blah.
The Coast's astrology column-- blah. Can't bear to look at it. A weekly reminder that "New Age" rhymes with "sewage."
I have this image of myself as an intellectual who sleeps with beautiful, intelligent women. Astrology is for suckers. Talking about the zodiac makes me skeptical; actually believing in it is an active turn-off.
Often a woman will pick up a copy of The Coast, open up to Free Will Astrology and say "so what's your sign." OK, harmless fun. You can't really fault someone for trying to find ways to make conversation. It can be entertaining, if only because astrology lends itself well to parody; for example, the horoscope section at theonion.com is the funniest part of the whole site.
But now and then I hear stuff like, "Oh, I get along well with my roommate because she's a Taurus and I'm a Pisces." That's when I close my eyes and say, "Great."
Anyone think they can guess my sign from reading this? Go ahead and try.

You're a Pisces. Because they are the oldest sign in the zodiac, they've been there and seen and done it all. It's hard for them to commit to one person because they identify with everyone. So they usually end up either celibate or promiscuous.
