Gender:combination of Aries Sun, Virgo rising with ruler Mercury in Taurus trine Pluto, and add in Uranus and Pluto on
the Asc. Also Pluto conjunct the Asc ruling 3rd house, Neptune in 3rd ruling 7th....yes I managed to findmyself in "sticky" situations in my youth.
Once I learned to integrate those energies it was easier for me to bite my tongue when necessary, but as ayouth it was tough.

Re: The smart asses of the zodiac« Reply #2 - on: 25.03.2010 at 16:44 [UT] »butter because moon is in leo and i have leo rising, (reading this - moon is conjunct my asc. right now)
i'm going to believe faithfully that your prompt for this thread is ME!
For me - It's mercury-uranus opposition (k/e) - it's not over til the fat lady sings, moon in Gemini (instinctive
use of words) and moon-pluto square (c/f) never let 'em see you sweat and "da-da-da-da!" jupiter-saturnconjunctionj (you think you got more on me than that?!)i thrive on smart ass. grew up among the best. i win out over them, every time.
if i had a dollar for every time someone referred to me as a "smart ass," I'd be as rich as rich could be... 49
years and counting.
smart-assness (i read as quick witted) has gotten me out of many pickles in my life.
long live smart-assed people.
survival skills, whether for bad or good, keep us alive.

Humor is Scorpio, Sag, Cap, kl

Mercury in Virgo or Gemini sextile or trine Pluto, Good for a many things, excellent in research but they canreally hit with words if they desire too.

Re: The smart asses of the zodiac« Reply #4 - on: 25.03.2010 at 16:58 [UT] »My prompt for this thread was actually my husband, who is a Smart-Ass Champ!!! He's one of the funniest
people I've ever met. Capricorn rising, with Saturn/Jupiter opposition.
But you, my dear Oblique, are at the top of my list of funny-as-hell smart ass champs.
I love smart asses, I admit. Recently I've slacked off in this.., but have been a big-time smart ass most of mylife. I think this comes with my Mercury/Moon/Pluto conjunction in Virgo, plus Mars/Sun conjunction sextile
Jupiter. I love to laugh, and often have a dry subtle wit, with a touch of self deprecation, plus a pinch ofvulgarity for good measure. (yes, I'm in "improper" Virgo) But I have to add that I don't like humor that's
mean-spirited, especially recently with t-Neptune just having made a trine to my natal Venus, I'm all heart.
Chronic Plutonic:"It was the way I learned how to run very very fast when I was young..

being a smart-arse who didn't care

how big the other person was.... " Hahaha!
"I attribute this to the combination of Aries Sun, Virgo rising with ruler Mercury in Taurus trine Pluto..."Hmm.. I wonder if Aries has something to do with it too. I have Aries rising & Virgo Sun (hey we flip!). Also
Mercury (or 3rd house influence) in relationship to Pluto seems to be a key factor.

i had a boyfriend once who used to start arguments in social situations, it would come to near-blows and thenhe'd disappear! leaving me in the situation, without a ride home. i thought it was cowardly, but he always told
me, "you can take care of yourself, babe."he had a drinking problem.

So funny! I was JUST thinking about the e stellium I knew and he always said: "I know".
o.O no he didn't. My father too, has a lot of e. He quickly proceeds to swatting me away like annoying fly

I offend people while making them laugh all the time--but not at their expense. I don't like to insult people or
make fun of individuals--unless they are an a hole, then, I'll go to it.

My i ex bf was hilarious--but then he would get these episodes of Terets or something, where he would justcurse and the humor would turn to anger. He had ACRx &E all in i & H10.

The former: Strong Merc in general and in Cappy and with Sun in Capricorn with Sun square Pluto, and Moon
square Mercury, strong Virgo, Pluto in the 3rd. At times, 7th House Pisces SN and the ruler of the 3rd, Venus,
being very closely trine 3rd Pluto..
The latter: very strong Jupiter energy, Jupiter closely trine Mercury, Leo Rising with Sun trine Mars JupiterCON, strong Venus and moderate Aquarius. 7th house Aqua Venus very closely sextile strong Sag Neptune(Taurus MC). At other times, 7th House Pisces SN and the ruler of the 3rd, Venus, being very closely trine 3rd

his ear, 'Don't worry, I won't leave you alone with her.'
Then there is the classic line he loves to tell his female friends, 'Your personality is your greatest form ofcontraception'......
Ok, he has Sun in Gemeni, squared by Saturn in Pisces, Capricorn asc, and Moon in Cancer in grand trine with
Neptune and Saturn. Heart of gold, a mouth that can shock, stun and yes, a smart arse to the core (I won't
mention some of his shocking statements.....but I will read this post to him!!!!)

Re: The smart asses of the zodiac« Reply #29 - on: 18.04.2010 at 17:17 [UT+1] »I just had to bring back this thread after being reminded of the author Jonathan Swift, who wrote Gulliver's
Travels. He also wrote a pamphlet called A Modest Proposal.
From Wikipedia: This essay is widely held to be one of the greatest examples of sustained irony in the historyof the English language. Much of its shock value derives from the fact that the first portion of the essay
describes the plight of starving beggars in Ireland, so that the reader is unprepared for the surprise of Swift's
solution when he states, "A young healthy child well nursed, is, at a year old, a most delicious nourishing andwholesome food, whether stewed, roasted, baked, or boiled; and I make no doubt that it will equally serve in africassee, or a ragout."
Here's his chart: (I can see Mercury in Sag being a good placement for satire and irony.)

When I wrote this thread I was thinking more of the humorous kind of sarcasm and smart-assdome, not the
rude, demeaning lashing out arising from anger. As far as humor goes, I just love love love that ironic subtle
wit, the play-on words, double meanings, snappy come-backs (no, not the mean-spirited ones). Sarcasm
doesn't have to be channeled in a mean-spirited way, and can be VERY funny when used good naturedly. I
think it's a talent.

Mate, I had never considered this before. But now you have articulated it, it makes sooooo much sense to me
without me knowing why? I mean a square? The people I have really loved have had strong Virgo, rising andstelliums or personal planets. I haven't even a clue what to say about it because this is new to me. I am so

I've been asking myself 'Why the square though?' I guess that's what I was asking you to share.....but hey.....feel freelol... well, hmmm.. I think maybe because squares are stimulating. I remember I had a friend who was aGemini, and whenever we got together my energy would just become charged, and I'd get all feisty and playful.
She and I would have fun going dancing or just hanging out blabbing to each other for hours on end.
Sometimes the energy would be so high I felt like doing something..........rascally.
Stellium squares... I just noticed recently with another friend who is a Sag stellium, I really enjoy her energy.
And now with you Apogee... yer kewl!
But really, every connection with any two people will be unique, so I may be biased about the squares... who
knows.

We certainly have plenty of it for a small country, I think it's a national pastime. Churchill was a funny man, he
once quipped of America and Britain "The only two nations seperated by a common language". His wit was
nearly as great as his consumption of whiskey. I think he spent the entire war drunk or as we say 'pissed as aparrot', no wonder he was feisty. "We'll fight them on the beaches, hic, and in the air, buuuurp......"
I see where you're going with the squares though. I'm going to pay way more attention in a completely
different manner from now on.
'Rascally' hehehehehehehehehehe I'm liking that in a rather large way. I say it to my one year old Jack Russell
pup when he has an accident on my kitchen floor, 'Youuuuuuuuu little rascal!' while he reverts to the 'But I'm
so cuuuuute' look.

accident on your floor.
(that's too cute about your puppy!)
And speaking of smart asses... Winston Churchill!! He da Man! I just love his wit.
Here's some of favorite Churchill quotes:*An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile—hoping it will eat him last.
*From now on, ending a sentence with a preposition is something up with which I shall not put.
*A fanatic is one who can’t change his mind and won’t change the subject.
*Nancy Astor: “Sir, if you were my husband, I would give you poison.” Churchill: “If I were your husband I
would take it.”*A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on.
*Once in a while you will stumble upon the truth but most of us manage to pick ourselves up and hurry along
as if nothing had happened.
*If you are going to go through hell, keep going.
*If you have ten thousand regulations, you destroy all respect for the law.
*You can always count on Americans to do the right thing—after they’ve tried everything else.
*I am ready to meet my Maker. Whether my Maker is prepared for the ordeal of meeting me is another matter.
*The truth is incontrovertible, malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end; there it is.
*A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.
*We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.
*Writing a book is an adventure. To begin with, it is a toy and an amusement; then it becomes a mistress, andthen it becomes a master, and then a tyrant. The last phase is that just as you are about to be reconciled toyour servitude, you kill the monster, and fling him out to the public.
*Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm.
*It has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all the others that have been tried.
*Courage is the first of human qualities because it is the quality that guarantees all the others. (My Aries risingagrees.)Back to top

I believe this is what is generally referred to as "A Good Thing" however it may be construed as non-rascalian,rather than "I left you a little something"

Re: The smart asses of the zodiac« Reply #45 - on: 21.04.2010 at 02:01 [UT+1] »By the way Butterflye, I have to tell you this story.
I worked for an American owned Cable TV Supply company in London once as a data and logistics manager.
Sounds fancy but you just reboot computers and make sure stuff is on the warehouse shelves. Anyway, I was ata fancy industry show, I think at Olympia in London and we had a stand there amongst all the others. It gave
me a chance to meet some of our suppliers. So I was with one of our Directors and the Managing Director as
we tootled around saying hello. We came to one of our American suppliers and the Managing Director of thecompany was there so my boss says "Ah I'd like you to meet him"...."Sure, glad to" I say being the friendly
sort.
So we toddle up to this fella and my boss says "This is the MD of such and such company" and he shakes myhand and says "Hi, Randy Holiday"
Well I just about soiled myself on the spot and spontaneously burst out laughing and couldn't stop. Seeing thisfella getting redder and redder in the face and not sure whether it was embarrassment or apoplectic rage, I
managed to get hold of myself and say "I am terribly sorry for appearing so rude but I have to tell youwhy"....."In the UK 'Randy' means 'Horny' and 'Holiday' means 'Vacation'...so you see in American terms yourname means Horny Vacation and so when you smiled at me and told me your name.....I wanted to say 'No, I
live here.....but you go ahead and fill your boots'"
He never spoke to me again.

I've got to agree on the square. My love and I are k and h, and we have great comedy chemistry. He's a great
mimic and is always giving me grief. I'm a scorpy one liner person. My dad a Aa and I are really good atplaying off one another, we both have an incisive wit. My sister is cA and she's good at the funny stories.
I work with two saggs, one staff one client who both have massive chips on their shoulders. The staff member
quoted me one time, she'd been complaining about people giving her grief - she's a total whingeing pain in thebum and I said " It's coz your the new girl " or similar - basically get over yourself!! In the next staff meetingshe made some comment about it...I'm sposed to be the Scorpio!!!!!
Butterflye I too love a good bit of smart word play and can't stand nastiness. Unless of course it's someegomaniac who needs the air let out of their over inflated sense of self.

Oh ho ho - that is TOO funny
No wonder you couldn't restrain yourself! I remember my boss and I wereorganising a conference a few years back, one of the European delegates had a funny name, can't for the life ofme remember what it was but it was so puerile and non-PC to find it funny but she and I just couldn't stoptittering, luckily not in front of the man himself (just). And she was so upper class and 'proper' too which
made it all the more funny.
One of my friends is sometimes called a smart-arse. I just think he's v quick witted and very clever, he's
AmCb Bi I've heard people say 'he's too clever for his own good'That's such a British concept isn'tit?
My trouble is I've never been good at witty retorts/ comebacks. Hopeless. Though watching Malcolm Tucker atwork has given me a few one-liners for up my sleeve for such occasions, I think it might work.
I was talking to a colleague (we're both union reps) and she was talking about this particular manager (who's
got lots of negative traits, including bullying and nepotism etc etc)
Colleague: "I met her for the first time in that meeting last week. She's not too bright is she?"
Me: "She's so dense, light bends around her"Thank you the writers of The Thick of It

Alas dear Butterflye, I think it inflates them even more. My friend's husband is so horribly obnoxious, runs
women down and is so up himself - I hate to say it but I avoid visiting them ! Carol

A pretty Capricornish coloured i person, which is a goodcombination as one won't dwell in depression, also won't be the keeper of "all universal truth". Notice the rulersof these two (GmF) in b in H5: a relaxed and happy attitude to funnyness, also enough earth to keep that
humor dry and entertaining. Add the fBI p and you'll get a guy who's sensitive to all nuances and canquickly and wittily react to human faults.

sarcasm, and Gemini's quick wit and thinking can put together some pretty good zingers sometimes!
Luckily with my Libra stellium, I'm careful about how and when I put this skill on display, and in front of who Libra is, after all, the soul of decorum . . .

Oh, and let's not forget the King of smart asses, George Carlin, famous for his quick wit and use of language Sun in Taurus, Moon in Gemini, Mars in Sagittarius.
