The main thing is, it's foreign, it's sideways, and it's got little Vidalia onions on top. Those born under the sign of the Parapet are foreign and sideways and wear funny hats. The Hippo Like the hills of the Bridge, the Hippo is covered with squigglies. As the Hippo wades through muddy waters with stoic indifference, so those born under him plod through life with calm indifference. Hippos think they understand Zen or Taoism, burn a lot of incense, and struggle constantly to find an elusive inner peace.
Hippos are perpetually disappointed.
The Village Those born under the sign of the Village are idiots. More specifically, they are Village Idiots, and we would be lost without them. Those who are not Village Idiots are merely Village People. Those born under the sign of the Village are generally pleasant and good natured, and are therefore easily manipulated and exploited, and can be dispensed with easily in the end. The Diver is a tricky sign, because it is a tricky symbol.
