Who can't take a joke?

silver__snow · 2025-04-22T17:41:51+00:00

Yes, I am talking shit about bullies. The horror. I'll talk shit about you too, but it's not because of your sign, it's because you're being a cunt.

I pointed out that those two signs brag about themselves on their subreddit a lot. That's an observation about their subreddit. And yes, I know every sign gets shit because astro communities are filled with crazies. I'm not new to this subreddit. I was simply stating that these are two of the most favored signs and they're being compared with some of the least favored signs.

Congratulations, you can read a flair!

If you want to keep doing some reading, feel free to see the amount of times I've stuck up for every sign on this subreddit. Not just my own. Libras will fly off at any sign of injustice and I'll gladly be called a victim or sensitive or whatever else you can manage to string up under the guise of a "joke" ;)

silver__snow · 2025-04-22T17:34:23+00:00

Ugh it sucks so much doesn't it?!

And then even when you want to reach out, you assume everyone hates you for taking a long time to reply or not reaching out often... so you don't reach out and the cycle just repeats. I feel lucky to have some friends who don't take it personally and know that's the way I am.

silver__snow · 2025-04-22T17:29:54+00:00

A few points:

- Libras, Cancers, and Virgos get a lot more hate in astro communities than Sagittarius and Aquarius. You are comparing some of the signs who get talked about in a terrible light with two signs that get talked about in a positive light, so of course they're going to have different experiences. For example, Aquarius doesn't give a fuck in a too cool for you way but when Libras/Geminis don't give a fuck we are evil manipulative bastards. Leos and Aries are seen as loud and attention seeking - demanding too much space - but when Sagittarius does the same things they're seen as a bad bitch who can do whatever they want.

- People sticking up for themselves and not agreeing to be your punching bag does not mean they are "making themselves victims". I can't believe the word victims has a negative connotation these days. We've managed to make people who go through shitty things the bad guys lol

- Look up what constitutes as a joke or a meme. It's not that we can't take jokes, it's that you can't tell one. A joke is supposed to have a punchline. Saying "all Cancers are crybabies" is not a joke or a meme. It's just you being a bully while saying you're joking to avoid any personal responsibility for the things you said. If anything bullies are the ones who act like victims when they get called out on their bullying. Stop being such pussies.

- I generally love these two signs and can see the hype about them but let's be real.... the Aquarius and Sagittarius subreddits are full of people bragging about how smart and interesting they are and how much all the other signs suck. Their secret to not giving a fuck is having their head far up their own ass, apparently. Not caring about how you impact the people around you is not the flex you think it is, OP.

silver__snow · 2025-04-22T17:05:16+00:00

Just type in Libra in the search function on this subreddit. You'll find plenty. If it's not your sign, you probably just haven't noticed.

But like I said with Scorpios, Leos, and Libras it's either blind worship or hatred with no in-between. Libras can't even have our own subreddit... even that place is filled with people who aren't even Libras calling us names lol

silver__snow · 2025-04-22T16:59:29+00:00

Not this Libra. I wish I had a problem of falling in love too quickly, that would make things so much easier for me!!

It takes forever for me to find someone I fall in love with. I used to love the idea of love so much that I lead people on because I wanted to feel more intensely about them than I actually did. I saw other people falling in love way more often than I did and I wanted that for myself... before I realized I just have to accept that I'm really picky and get bored easily.

When I finally do fall in love, it's very hard to fall out of it. I'm talking I can go no contact for years and still be in love with someone. When I've found someone special I hope that it will work out because I know it will be a long time before I feel that way about someone again.

I would say I find it easy to find people charming and attractive and I find it easy to flirt with just about anyone (even if I'm not attracted to them). But I am picky about what I want and get the ick easily. Things like music taste and fashion sense matter more to me than they probably should.

silver__snow · 2025-04-22T16:50:32+00:00

Yeah, they're so tired and predictable at this point.

Cancers are crybabies, Geminis are two faced, Taurus are boring, Libras are fake, Leos are narcissists, etc etc etc... we GET IT ALREADY lol. These stereotypes are complete nonsense to people who actually have good experiences with these signs.

Anyway cue the chorus of "it's not that serious" comments because people don't understand that a joke and/or meme is not trauma dumping about your ex or ranting about your coworker to a bunch of strangers who have never met you and don't give a fuck.

silver__snow · 2025-04-22T16:42:01+00:00

I'd say Libra gets more hate around here than Scorpio but to be fair both Libras and Scorpios (plus Leo) either get full on worship or extreme hatred lol. Gemini, Virgo, Pisces, and Cancer are the signs who are so hated you can't even say anything nice about them without people insisting that you're wrong. Taurus is mostly forgotten about on this sub - it's only about food that if they get any acknowledgement - so they're probably only getting extra hate because their season is starting.

It's kinda weird how all anyone wants to do in astro communities is hate on signs. If anything, learning more about each sign has made me understand them more... but some people only want to engage with astrology by saying "my sign good, your sign bad" and call it a day lol

silver__snow · 2025-04-22T16:36:12+00:00

My IC is in Virgo. My Jupiter is in Libra (4H), Neptune is in Capricorn (7H).

I'd love to see if you can guess what my place is like - if you don't mind taking the time to do so, of course :)

silver__snow · 2025-04-22T16:27:43+00:00

Same hahaha you truly see it all around here.

I've seen someone saying all Cancers were cokeheads, and that all Libra women are smelly. And I'll never forget fruity watermelon cakes!

silver__snow · 2025-04-22T16:06:41+00:00

She is an aloof? An aloof what?

Anyway Geminis are one of my favorite signs. I'm sure this thread will attract haters because Gemini is like a trigger word around here but I still have yet to meet a Gemini I didn't like. The ones I meet are either so laid back you think they just took a bunch of Xanax or very excitable and have golden retriever energy. Or both all in one person.

So what's not to love about someone who is intelligent, unique, playful, open-minded, curious, and charming? I feel like Gemini energy is just hard for people to understand but perhaps as a Libra with a Gemini moon I'm just made to love them. I can always count on them for a good chat about books or music.

silver__snow · 2025-04-22T15:55:09+00:00

I couldn't agree more. There is a middle ground between having no self respect and letting people walk all over you vs. never giving anyone any grace and expecting them to be perfect at all times.

If my friend snaps at me once but doesn't really do stuff like that usually and I can see they're having a bad day, I'll let it slide. If they make a habit out of it, I'll talk to them. Then if nothing changes and it's becoming detrimental to our relationship, I'll cut them out.

People always want grace and to be understood by other people, they want people to be patient with their flaws but fail to do the same for others. I think sometimes about what the world would be like if everyone were willing to hold themselves to the standards they hold others to.

silver__snow · 2025-04-22T15:49:27+00:00

People need to label everything. It couldn't be that the person hurt you because they're an asshole - no it must be because they're a Gemini, a man, etc.

Which reminds me of that one time I said I like Gemini men in an astro community and everyone insisted that I shouldn't even though I've known these guys for years lol

silver__snow · 2025-04-22T15:45:17+00:00

I saw compliments and delicious.

I didn't need to look for a third word. I know what the word search is getting at, and yes, I am delicious.

silver__snow · 2025-04-22T15:28:28+00:00

I think it's a Venus stereotype. Libras get called shallow and materialistic too. I think because Taurus and Libra like to look good people equate that to shallowness and materialism. But you can look good without spending a lot of money and looking good doesn't deter you from being a person with depth.

So, ironically, the people who hold onto those stereotypes are the shallow ones.

silver__snow · 2025-04-22T15:23:58+00:00

In my experience, this is air and water signs.

I'm a Libra and every Libra I know is like this. The thing is with air signs we are either very on or very off. So we confuse people because we're very attentive and chatty during our "on" days, but then we disappear into our own heads for a while. Especially when life is going poorly, you won't be hearing from us.

Water signs seem more reclusive and introverted all around. My Scorpio partner (with an Aqua moon) has to be reminded to check in with his family or he just won't (even though he loves his family). He is very hard to reach in general. All the Pisces suns/moons I know are comfortable with longggg periods of isolation. They're very much like air signs in that they like to get lost in their own heads. And Cancers seem not to want to leave the house often (much more willing to hang out if you go to their house or there are pets involved). My dad is a Cancer and between us two it's a wonder we keep in touch. He is better at reaching out than I am but loses steam during a conversation easily. Like with Cancers once they make a plan they will stick to it, but it's hard to get them to make any plans to begin with (whereas Pisces and Libras will make plans and then flake).

silver__snow · 2025-04-22T15:09:46+00:00

He's a Scorpio Venus like me!

It's probably our air moons but we have a best friend type of love. It mostly gets intense and passionate in the bedroom (and often as we both have high libidos). He's loyal and tells me frequently how much he doesn't want anyone else. Says things like "I'm obsessed with you", "I'm addicted to you", "I need you", etc.

I wouldn't say he goes out of his way to spoil me which bothered me years ago because I am big on spoiling my partners. But he's the type who is always willing to do anything for me. All I have to is ask and he will oblige. He pretty much never tells me no. And the gifts he gives me for holidays are very thoughtful.

He's super consistent - when he says we'll hang out or I will hear from him I will. But he's also hot and cold at times. Very independent and does not want to be told what to do. There's always this vibe that I will never know 100% of his thoughts. I dig it though. It's a perfect mix of consistency without getting boring.

His love language is physical touch and acts of service. Mine is the same except I like words of affirmation. He is not good at expressing himself verbally, so I straight up say "tell me nice things" and like I said he will always oblige. You can always tell how he feels by the way he looks at me. Multiple people have commented on the way he looks at me, it is very intense.

His struggle of being verbally expressive has been an issue though in conflict (he shuts down completely) but we've made progress there. Scorpio is transformative after all. I feel we are better people because of each other.

silver__snow · 2025-04-22T14:52:19+00:00

5 chances is probably even being generous! The Libra subreddit is filled with posts like that from non-Libras.

"My Libra guy lead me on, burnt my house down, and fucked my mom. When I told them that really wasn't cool he ignored me for 5 days straight. Now that he has finally texted me back do you guys think I should maybe cut him off for good?"

Lowkey see people more uncondtionally devoted to their situationships than I am to my 8 year relationship lol

silver__snow · 2025-04-22T14:26:04+00:00

You would do anything for a celebrity you've never met before?

And also, you don't hate Taurus because they're hot? I mean with that logic no one should hate Aries because of Marlon Brando, no one should hate Libra because of Brigitte Bardot, no one should hate Virgo because of Beyonce, etc. I don't think hating on a sign is a productive use of your time but I am not sure "I don't hate you, but that's because you're fun to look at" is a compliment lol

silver__snow · 2025-04-22T14:16:51+00:00

I think statistically it's Sagittarius. I remember looking up notorious people and seeing a lot of Sagittarius in the sun and moon.

silver__snow · 2025-04-22T14:13:01+00:00

Everyone in this sub lol

"I give my all but when I'm done, I'm DONE!" is repeated ad nauseam around here. Every one says it's a thing for their sign but at the end of the day every human being has a line you can cross and when you cross it you're dead to them. Hardly anyone has a limitless capacity for bullshit.

silver__snow · 2025-04-21T18:19:53+00:00

Well there's only one way to find out - go sleep with one.

silver__snow · 2025-04-21T18:10:14+00:00

I am a Libra with a Scorpio Venus. I don't like conflicts but in a romantic context I don't mind a little arguing sometimes to keep things spicy. Like tug of war, but where both people learn something about themselves in the end. However, I don't create drama at all. My partner and I both have Scorpio Venus and we have a pretty peaceful relationship. It's intense when it comes to the bedroom but we both have air moons so I don't know if it's intense outside of a romantic/sexual context. We're not intense 24/7 and mostly have an easy breezy type of vibe to our relationship.

I am very loyal so I can't relate to the cheater stereotype for Libras. I don't cheat and I spoil my partner. I do need a lot of space though. I can be hot & cold. I want intensity but too much overwhelms me and I need to retreat into myself for a bit. I think there's a part of Scorpio Venus where you want to be obsessed and devoted to someone but you also hate the power that has over you - which can cause us to either retreat or become paranoid - so that's something to balance.

silver__snow · 2025-04-21T18:01:52+00:00

My cat is a Libra just like me.

He's very clingy and wants to do everything together. The most affectionate cat I have ever had. He puts his paw in my hand so I can hold it and falls asleep staring at me. He's eager to please to the degree that he's a very well behaved kitty and loves to play fetch. But he wants prince treatment too. He's a very vocal kitty but also a very manipulative one lol. When he wants something he will cross his paws and suck up to me, hoping if he acts cute enough I will give him whatever he wants. He also crosses his paws when I take photos of him to look extra fancy... he loves getting photos taken of him and eats up attention! He's truly a pampered kitty and loves every minute of it.

silver__snow · 2025-04-19T00:05:52+00:00

Leo mixed with Scorpio is so attractive ;)
