    They were, the "or something idk" indicates so

    This exchange is a joke between friends, thankfully.

    I like astrology just as a fun thing, but the people out there who take it too seriously are fucking insufferable.

    You mean I shouldn’t have told my manager that I’d retrograde her anus?

    I don't understand how you can like astrology as a fun thing? How can it be fun unless you believe in it?

    It's like enjoying wrestling. It's all fake and staged, but it's still fun to watch.

    The trolls weren't properly introduced in any capacity that would associate them with astrology until 2010.

    I think they meant the wording more than the homestuck part

    No, no, it's because Mercury is in your Gatorade and you drank it all! Go to the hospital, it's a mercury poisoning! /jk

    Sorry about the Big Sad, OP. Let's hope it passes soon.
    In the meantime, can you get checked for things like iron deficiency or thyroid not working right?

    Do not compare Homestuck to astrology, Homestuck is at least funny

    ... I don't think it's being compared to Homestuck. They mentioned Homestuck because the characters in the comic are literally based on the astrological signs.

    Also the mention of "rage" and that being an element in Homestuck.

    As someone who was neck-deep in the fandom from middle school thru my late teens... I wouldn't recommend it, but that's just me.

    One of my friends always goes "oh it's the moon" Dark moon bad times. Full moon bad times. It got to be a joke... and then at some point I ended up downloading a Moon Calendar App, because the annoying thing is though, it's so reassuring. Like yes, I am having a shit day and the moon happens to be dark... In two days it will no longer be dark! Huzzah! I will feel better! And by some quirk of my hormone system, generally speaking, it's true!

    Every so often I have a spectacularly bad day and check the moon and it's a 🌙, and I am furious lol, because I just want to have something to blame. It doesn't have to be a rational something, it just has to be not me 😂 So I can see the joy of blaming a planet... But that said if someone suggested I am chronically ill because of the stars on my birthday, I'd definitely recover enough to kick their arse.

    Regardless of anything else, those are two of the most obnoxious fucking usernames I've ever seen. I want to throw them both out of a window like it's an 80s B-movie.

    you could strap it to a hyper-accurate heat seeking missile that has been trained on your DNA and exact image and the joke would still go over your head

    Threatening to put someone's anus in retrograde is unironically funny.
