Ah yes ... this is probably OK but do be careful.
Correct training is very necessary

Re: What's your starsign?

Cough, cough!
Young Mups, you have not been trained in the art of Poinking! Did you flex first? If not it is classed as a poke or mispoink!
Rachel is now a black belt. She will instruct you Grasshopper!

My sincere apologies Tess. Passion took over and I acted too quickly and without permission.

(Is Nom really a Taurean - that indeed, explains a lot.).

I don't believe in star signs/horoscopes, but for those that do you can always read into it something that you agree with.

You're quite right, as always.
As said, it was a moment of passion.

Ian I believe it is called 'The Barnum effect ' named after the man who started the Barnum Circus which had fortune tellers etc.

The Barnum effect, also called the Forer effect, is the observation that individuals will give high accuracy ratings to descriptions of their personality that supposedly are tailored specifically for them, but are in fact vague and general enough to apply to a wide range of people.This effect can provide a partial explanation for the widespread acceptance of some beliefs and practices, such as astrology, fortune telling ....
