Astrology and the flu

Wow. Even I wouldn’t put it that strongly (mostly for fear of pointlessly insulting friends whom I won’t be able to persuade anyway), but Lucy Mangan nails it. Oh, how she nails it. Arrogant, sure, but hey … it’s astrology she’s talking about. It doesn’t get any more fair game than that.
“You should be stripped and burned at the stake of commonsense. I will stoke the fires with Jonathan Cainer horoscopes ripped untimely from the Daily Mail, and as the flames lick ever higher, I will suck the smell of grilled moron greedily down into my lungs.”
C’mon Lucy, tell us how you really feel. No need to hold back.
In contrast, I have spent this whole week blowing the smell of damned flu up out of my lungs. No doubt that’s because Venus is in the third house of Sagittarius or something. Next season I promise I’ll remember to get the flu shot in time.
