Over it the average age thread I noticed there are a lot of us. I thought I’d make us our own thread to discuss the duality of the world, mercurial mood swings, and our general superiority. Does anyone know if Cecil is a Gemini? He seems like a Gemini.

I’m a Twin, and quite proud of it. The only thing that bothers me about it is the dual personality thing. No, it doesn’t. Does, too. Shut up! You shut up! Mom always liked you best! Yadda yadda yadda…

Puh-leez! Dual personality, my fat white ass!

Dual Personalities ?  
I aim for at least a dozen on any given day.  
Keep 'em guessing is my motto.  
And there is an easy explanation for so many Gemini’s. Well you know how the weather starts to get cold in the fall and baseball season is just ending and football really isn’t into full swing just yet. No real sports on TV. What else you going to do ?

I had never put much stock in “the stars,” being a rationalist, secular humanist, don’t trust anything you can’t see, touch, taste, measure, kind of guy…BUT, someone who does “believe” recently pointed out a whole slew of personality traits, pre-occupations, skills, etc. that I possess that are very Gemini-esque. Doesn’t mean that I now check my horoscope religiously, but it does provide some food for thought.

I’m a double-Gemini (the sun and moon were both in Gemini when I was born). Does that mean I have a _quadruple_ personality? 😃

IPA? Yeah, I’m a Gemini, too. Yeah, that’s the ticket. In fact, my whole family are Geminis. Yeah, that’s it. In fact, uh, we _invented_ gemini-ness. Yeah.

I’m a Gemini AND a twin, and I think that any common personality traits would have more to do with the weather at the time of your birth than the stars, but I think all that stuff is so much bullshit.

As a Gemini, you are blah blah blah.

Yeah… OK buddy…

For myself, I find that the general personality description is pretty accurate, and the daily horoscope in the paper is a load of hooey.

Can I have a beer? Anyone bring any Newcastle?

Get this 12/12/71 6/6/67! Our first child together was born 9/9/96!  
Can I play too since I get to spend the rest of my life with one of your sign?  
Also I have a question to throw out there.  
How many of you are left handed? I know four south-paw Geminis. They have all been friends for years to boot!  
And yes, I am still looking for the mark of the beast in his hairline! 😉
