    I can appreciate that view point as long as we are in agreement that there is no real science behind it. I can totally see how people use “I’m such a Pisces” to describe themselves as sensitive and emotional. I just wish they would say “I’m sensitive and emotional” instead, lol.

    That argument falls flat to me simply because there are 13 zodiac signs, not 12, and ancient (and modern) astrologers simply ignore the 13th one (Ophiuchus) for convenience.

    If you are going to claim the stars have influence over our personalities, at least be consistent with how you “read” said stars.

    Not to mention, there is zero evidence that astrology works.


  • I’m with you. Dogs should not be off leash if it’s against the law or ordinance, and they should not be off leash if they cannot be controlled by voice.

    We used to have a dog who was aggressive towards other dogs. We took great care to try and socialize him gently and train him and keep everyone safe (including walking him late at night, and always on a secure leash and harness).

    One time he attacked an off-leash dog who came by to sniff and was clearly not listening when her owner called her. It was very traumatic for everyone involved, the other dog almost died, and I still have the scar on my leg.

    The fact that people think “tee hee hurr durr my dog is so nice” is ridiculous and not a good enough reason to cause havoc. Sure, your dog might be nice but that doesn’t change that fact that other dogs might be aggressive, and that people (especially children) who are scared of dogs should be allowed to walk the streets without being in terror.
