ghanima81 Moderator Posts: 520 From: Maine Registered: Apr 2009	posted November 18, 2007 11:48 AM Agreed. Cancers are very emotionally observant. They seem to have x-ray vision into peoples internal thoughts/feelings. Geminis always seem to be checking everything out... Every Gem I've ever been hanging out with always faces the door/where all the people are and seem to be paying attention to everything around them at once. They would never sit with their backs facing the crowd. Aquarians are natural detectives, so they are observant of a lot, as well. Least observant? Hehehe... Leo! (my 5th house Leo moon and 10th house Aqua sun make me a little half and half! ) IP: Logged
Astralmuse unregistered	posted November 18, 2007 01:29 PM You just asked this same question! http://www.linda-goodman.com/ubb/Forum1/HTML/015353.html "Observative," "cuz," and "bcuz" are not words. When you end a sentence with a punctuation mark, there should be a space before the succeeding sentence. "Their" is the possessive form of "they" and it is used as a modifier before a noun. The contraction of "they are" is "they're," not "their." Those are my observations, and they are not due to my sun sign. IP: Logged

BlueRoamer Knowflake Posts: 95 From: Registered: Apr 2009	posted November 18, 2007 01:39 PM I have a theory that the internet (and texting) is making people illiterate. Not only that it's leading to a butchering of the english language. IP: Logged
Azalaksh Knowflake Posts: 982 From: New Brighton, MN, USA Registered: Apr 2009	posted November 18, 2007 01:58 PM BR ~ Agreed!!! I understand and acquiesce to the need for limiting alpha characters for text messaging and chat. But it's very hard to read in a place where there's plenty of room for correct spelling and punctuation to increase readability and facilitate easy comprehension. I turn off when I read an SMS-speak post and generally ignore the poster, as I find it lazy and self-centered to expect others to make an exceptional effort to understand YOU, instead of YOU making the effort to BE understood.

I agree with you and I'll NEVER do it again. It was absolute torture. Geocosmic Valentine IP: Logged

Not only that it's leading to a butchering of the english language. Yes, I keep fighting my 12 yr old about this, when I see his myspace page I just have to shake my head because all his friends do the same; sometimes I don't even know what they are saying, is like a new language.

Astralmuse unregistered	posted November 18, 2007 03:42 PM quote: I have a theory that the internet (and texting) is making people illiterate. I did my linguistics thesis on "newspeak" like l33t, bf, IM-speak, etc. There is a big difference between someone who texts "ttyl" and someone unable to differentiate between "their" and "they're." The former may be able to communicate well in other venues, but the latter is functionally illiterate. I love lolzcats, and they have intentionally bad grammar, but when I see a post on a message board that is chock full of misspellings, incorrect conjugations, nonsensical expurgations, etc. - it's not worth the effort to try to "translate" it. I absolutely agree with Azalaksh that it is lazy and self-centered, especially on a message board where most posts are requests. I generally ignore them. quote: You do my Mars in Virgo heart proud!!! Awwww, but are you sure it isn't becuase you are x sun that you appreciate y, and therefore I must also be x sun? Edited to add that librarising must also be x sun! IP: Logged
Astralmuse unregistered	posted November 18, 2007 03:53 PM NeptuneLove, if I remember correctly English is not your native language. I'm not speaking of people who are writing in a second language. Actually, many second-language speakers are more gramatically correct than native-speakers (the most eloquent English-speaking person I've met is a Swedish woman). I'm talking about people who are willfully illiterate in their native language. I don't expect perfection, just reasonable intelligence. And from what I remember of your posts you are definitely intelligent! IP: Logged
heart cakes unregistered	posted November 18, 2007 04:00 PM UM, uh oh. here is an example of how i play with language; it's my most recent post. i'm actually a good speller, but i like to play around. i don't use capitalization either. please be honest and tell me if this is annoying to read: ______________________________________ OMG! what does it mean to have the galactic center exactly at your asc-venus midpoint?! my asc is 24.05 and my venus is at 29.01 (both in sagittarius) making their midpoint 26.33ish! i am kinda freaked out.. what could this mean? p.s. you're welcome zala.. aka, no sweat. _______________________________________ IP: Logged
Unmoved Knowflake Posts: 2196 From: Registered: May 2009	posted November 18, 2007 04:13 PM Maybe English is not Joed's first language...?? For example, he/she may be able to express himself/herself well in another language but just not in English?? I have often seen English speakers deem non-English speakers as illiterate, stupid or uneducated. Is this fair? Anyway... As for your question Joed, I think people observe at different levels, and they observe different things. Some may observe the details better. Apparently this is a Virgo trait. Some may observe the bigger picture better. Apparently this is a Gemini trait, and/or Sagittarius/Jupiter. Some may observe aesthetics better, or tangible things. Apparently that is a Venus trait. Some may observe emotions better. Apparently that is a Cancer, or Pisces trait. and so on... So, maybe it is not about the "most observant" sign but it is about "how" each sign observes things. I am likely wrong, but I made a conscious decision to participate in these astrological discussions (even though I am clueless) so that I can learn, be corrected, and ask questions. added: Astralmuse. You posted your post while I was posting, so you answered my question before I asked IP: Logged
Astralmuse unregistered	posted November 18, 2007 04:14 PM heart cakes - I like to play with language, too. I'll throw in a "lurve" for love, or an occassional "y'all." Your post read pretty clearly to me. I should clarify that I personally don't have issues with a few misspellings (we all type too quickly some times) or small gaffes or personal quirks that aren't in the way of communication. It's when a post becomes a search-and-replace task that I don't read on. IP: Logged
heart cakes unregistered	posted November 18, 2007 04:17 PM thanks astralmuse. i am so used to writing this way that i rarely think about the possible impact it might have on peoples' ability to decipher it! unmoved, you make good points about the different kinds of observation.. i think it depends on the motivation and that all signs are good at observing what their motivation compels them to observe..

Edited to add that librarising must also be x sun! Absolute-ly!! That is an Unconditional, Unqualified, Absolute, 100% right-on observation ;-) ALL x Suns appreciate y, don't they?? All 500,000,000 of them = No Exceptions!! That's what Astrology's all about, isn't it?? Unmoved ~ I suppose we ought to apologize to Joed if English is not indeed his/her first language. But I think most of the peeve expressed here comes from the previous posts by this OP. Of course, it also gave some of us more perfectionistic (or anal, if you will ) readers/writers a chance to express our opinions on poor communication skills, not to mention lack of originality, since this OP has asked this same question before (see Astralmuse's first post in this string) and has cluttered up the board doing the same thing (asking the same question over and over in different ways) ever since s/he got here. It's also a tad annoying for me when someone comes in here, asks a question, and then never answers any questions put to them. I enjoy *interaction* and *discussion, not this one-sided stuff. NeptuneLove ~ your English is without a flaw!! No worries heart cakes ~ quote: i think it depends on the motivation and that all signs are good at observing what their motivation compels them to observe.. Excellent!!! (claps hands)* IP: Logged
eightdegrees unregistered	posted November 18, 2007 05:40 PM I'll have to give my vote for Sag. Sag's are very sensitive to "undercurrents" especially in social situations, and we pick things up (along with other fire signs) without even really realizing it until it comes back to us in a flash of recognition and insight. For real. IP: Logged
ErickaF unregistered	posted November 18, 2007 08:29 PM I vote for any air signs...especially Virgo's. IP: Logged
Seeing Stars 7.21 Knowflake Posts: 137 From: Registered: Apr 2009	posted November 19, 2007 12:28 AM Astralmuse. Shut the f*ck up. Joed. and others.. the Virgo ascendant is very observative. Mercury Trine Pluto might be an aspect of observant behavior.. not positive though. IP: Logged
Astralmuse unregistered	posted November 19, 2007 12:37 AM Seeing Stars 7.21 - There's no need for you to be rude to me directly, is there? IP: Logged
