What was June '85? I think it was ox or something similar...

Ian the Korean · 12th February 2002, 20:02

I wish everyone luck and happiness!

I was born in the year of the ox, and the month of taurus. Wierd huh? My personality fits both pretty well too.

papadoc · 12th February 2002, 20:08

According to the Chinese Calendar,
My day and year of birth are in the
Year of the Snake...

Here's wishing everyone peace and prosperity.

It's not a swastika foo'.
It means luck, good things etc.

Vie: I was trying to say the Hakka version of it, I think your one is Cantonese.

Rob Weee! · 12th February 2002, 21:59

Looks like a swastica to me too.

Huehuetenango · 12th February 2002, 22:13

it originally meant something different than the preversion that the nazis used it as a symbol for.
You'd be amazed at how many campers ask about the one on the buddha's stomach at the museum i work at.

I was year of the pig

Mizter_E · 12th February 2002, 22:19

I was born in 85. which animal does that make me?....oh yeah it was the ox. and the month of the ram...hmm....

Ian the Korean · 12th February 2002, 22:25

These are some of thwe funniest horoscopes I've seen.

Ever wonder what horoscopes would be like if the astrologer were just a bit more candid?

AQUARIUS - Jan 21- Feb 19: You have an inventive mind and are inclined to be progressive. You lie a great deal. On the other hand, you are inclined to be careless and impractical, causing you to make the same mistakes repeatedly. Everyone thinks you are incurably stupid.

PISCES - Feb 20 - Mar 20: You have a vivid imagination and often think you are being followed by the FBI and CIA. You have minor influence over your associates and people resent you for flaunting your power. You lack confidence and are generally a coward. Pisces people screw small animals. They are also known for running away whenever faced with a difficult situation, typically screaming and waving their arms in the air.

ARIES - Mar 21 - Apr 20: You are the pioneer type and hold most people in contempt. You are quick tempered, impatient and scornful of advice. In essence, look in the mirror, you are looking at a prick.

TAURUS - Apr 21 - May 20: You are practical and persistent. You have a dogged determination to work like hell. Most people think you are stubborn and bull headed. There's a good chance you are a communist.

GEMINI - May 21 - Jun 21: You are a quick and intelligent thinker. People like you because you are bi-sexual. However, you are inclined to expect too much or too little; this means you are cheap. Geminis are notorious for thriving on incest.

CANCER - Jun 22 - July 23: You are sympathetic and understanding of other people's problems. They think you are a sucker. You are always putting things off, and that is why you'll always be on welfare and never be worth a shit.

LEO - July 24 - Aug 23: You consider yourself a born leader, while others think you are too pushy. Most Leos are bullies. You are vain and cannot tolerate honest criticism. Your arrogance is disgusting. Leo people are always thieving bastards.

VIRGO - Aug 24 - Sept 23: You are a logical type and hate disorder. This nitpicking is sickening to your friends. You are cold and unemotional and often fall asleep during sex. Virgos make excellent bus drivers and pimps.

LIBRA - Sept 24 - Oct 23: You are the artistic type and have a difficult time with reality. If you are a man, you are most likely gay. Chance of employment and monetary gains are slim. Most Libra women are prostitutes. All Libras die of V.D.

SCORPIO - Oct 24 - Nov 22: You are shrewd in business and cannot be trusted. You shall achieve the pinnacle of success because of your total lack of ethics. You are a perfect son-of-a-bitch. Most Scorpios are shot in the back. Most people who kill scorpios by shooting them in the back are scorpios themselves.

SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23 - Dec 21: You are optimistic and enthusiastic. You have a tendency to rely on luck since you lack talent. The majority of Sagittarians are drunkard dope fiends. In case you ever wondered, no, they are not laughing with you.

CAPRICORN - Dec 22 - Jan 20: You are conservative and afraid of taking risks. You don't do much of anything and are lazy. There has never been a Capricorn of any importance. Capricorns should avoid standing still for long periods of time as they tend to attract pigeons. The only time a capricorn is ever remembered is for farting in church.

I was born in 1983 - The Year of the pig.

hmph!

dylman · 12th February 2002, 22:52

There are dragons, tigers, snakes, boars, oxen, and what do I get? Bloody Rabbit.

papadoc · 12th February 2002, 22:55

Yes...but I guess you know why they use woks in China?
To throw at the wabbits.

Lucid DM · 12th February 2002, 23:00

Hey dylman.
The rabbit is the best one by far!
It's seen as the luckiest symbol, and it means you're noble, chivalrous, friendly, affectionate yet shy, and will do well in relationships.

I'm a rabbit too.

eleet-2k2 · 12th February 2002, 23:03

I think this is the correct Mandarin spelling, but I am not Chinese and am only copying what the TV says:

Lucid DM · 12th February 2002, 23:18

31337, the is no correct spelling using the roman alphabet.
They're just trying to get as close to the sound as possible.
But you'll never get the right sound unless you use the proper characters.

Lucky: Yes
Noble: Hmmm
Chivalrous: Forsooth!
Friendly: With my friends
Affectionate yet shy: Bang on
Relationships: Single for the moment but we'll see

Those Chinese astrologers knew their shit didn't they? Thanks for the nice words

EDIT: Ian, as valued as your contributions are, please don't complain about post pumping. Pot=kettle=black. Have a nice day!
