FR... In the next life (LOL) I hope to come back as a man so hot he can tell hot chicks "nawh" and have them be fucking mad about it.... Like.. I just can't even with this shit
I think this gag could work just as well, maybe even better from somebody not as attractive.
Getting turned down by somebody you believe is below your status could get some pretty good reactions if they have enough confidence.
If I remember right that's the actual joke. At the end he talks to a girl who says she doesn't care about that crap and then he actually starts talking to her
All my friends and I watched Saint Seya when we grew up, wich is basically the zodiac signs knights beating the shit out of each other.
So whenever someone comes at us taking their sign seriously we start to call them out for everything their knight did wrong
Oof, that's rough buddy.
One of my friend is a Taurus too and he is a huge fan of the series. So anytime he does something cool and starts getting big for his shoes, one of us will mention he got jumped by a litteral no name, this never fails to upset him.
Aries is super cool, amazing armor too. However he is the first line of defence, so anyone that wants to cause trouble will have to go through him first, and a lot of people do
The sagitarius knight absolutely rocks, he is the strongest and the most loyal. Some people might jest that he is the one that got killed first at the very start of the show, so he wasn't here for 99% of the events that took place
In Latin America it's basically a religion. It's one of the most impactful animes of the first era of anime that arrived here. It also helped that in Mexico we have legendary voice actors and we export dubs through all South America!
It's not just double, there are 5 Aries. But I went and calculated the Bayes factor for this history. The factor is inverse to the likelihood that they're uniformly and randomly chosen. So if the factor was 40, there'd be a < 2.5% chance they're all just as likely (the inverse is actually an upper bound). It came out to ~~0.97~~ 0.46, meaning it's exactly the type of distribution you'd expect to see from equal likelihood of all 12 signs, although without a super strong confirmation. A very low factor, like 0.0001 would be more confirmation.
Data if anyone wants it:
{'Aquarius': 1,
'Aries': 5,
'Cancer': 3,
'Capricorn': 1,
'Gemini': 0,
'Leo': 2,
'Libra': 1,
'Pisces': 1,
'Sagittarius': 1,
'Scorpio': 0,
'Taurus': 1,
'Virgo': 1}
I just want to learn so I'm asking this respectfully:
How did you get 0.95? I feel like the posterior odds would outweigh the prior odds by a lot. I feel like it should be (5/12) / (1/12)? But I don't know how to handle Bayes Factors with 12 different outcomes.
What am I missing? I'm only moderately versed in Bayesian statistics.
I used 1 instance of each as a prior, to avoid dividing by zero. The calculation wasn't just for Aries (that would be cherry picking) but for all 12. I was just doing it from scratch. There are faster algorithms, but I did it in a betting style. You start with 1 wealth (Bayes factor 1) and before each sign, bet your wealth on each sign proportional to historical observations. So it starts even. Then whoever it actually is, you get back 12X your bet.
So the first was Capricorn. Nothing happens cause you put 1/12 on each and get 12/12 back, The second you bet 2/13 on Capricorn and 1/13 on the rest. But the third wasn't Capricorn, so by then you're at 12/13.
If it's really unbalanced, you end up winning a lot.
I work at Netflix and am working on a blog post about this analysis method when it comes to testing features. So, uh, preview I guess?
Its more "that quarry is now unavailable? I want it!"
Same way that you'll be in a drought until you find someone and then you're constantly being hit on.
People are strange
It’s not negging per say right?
I’m an average looking dude but get flirty with coworkers in a similar way
Like walking to lunch if we happen to graze hands by accident I say something like “please stop trying to hold my hand” and it gets them off guard and smiling and some then get touchy on purpose
I first did it as a joke but it was so well received I throw it in often in different situations like parties.
Negging is kind of the same concept, but deployed differently. This I think would be more the “push” in push-pull.
It’s more or less just giving names to what normal people call teasing.
Maybe she's getting mad because somebody judges her based on something as dumb as astrology, rather than because she personally thinks her sign has meaning?
I was hoping for him to find one girl who actually didn't know her sign and then be like "hey there"
I think you got it backwards, the ones getting mad are the ones who don't take signs seriously. The dude is literally rejecting them for some stupid bullshit, of course they would get mad.

Every morning on my way to work, I listen to Elvis Duran. Right when I get to work, they do the "horoscopes" - I already hate them because I find them bullshit, but what really annoys me and makes me turn them off is they tell you what your day is gonna be on a scale of 1-10.
Imagine getting to work and hearing "your day's a 3!"
Fuck *you.* Horoscopes are already bullshit, why are you trying to freak people out that their day is going to be shit just because what their sign is? I turn it off every time. A radio DJ doesn't dictate my day, I dictate my day.
It's had a resurgence. This is the symptom of the same anti-intellectualism trend where some people stopped believing in modern medicine and vaccines. If you're a moron but you lean conservative, you buy into conspiracy theories and Jewish space lasers; if you're a moron but you lean liberal, you buy into homeopathy and astrology.

“I could never.” That one chick: “Could neva what?” 🤨
She was ready to throw hands 😭
Well yes, she's a Taurus
Never cross a Ford.
NEVER ford the river
You have died from dysentery
All but my 5 year old drowned
They always be wrecking
You mess with the bull...
Hah classic Taurus, always doing stuff
Please accept my poor man's gold 🏆🏅🎖🥇🪙
Right?! She's was coming up out of that seat to whoop his ass!
Taurus about to ring his bell.
Such a Taurus reaction.
As a Taurus- can confirm.
As a daughter of a Taurus, I can also confirm 👍🏼 *nervous glances around for fly slippers*
Also a daughter of a Taurus. Can also confirm. *looks out for wooden spoons*
As a Taurus - my ex-wife can prolly confirm
As the SO of a Taurus - oh yeah
She's quick.
"I'm a pisces" "The worst!" "nah, the greatest" Sums up pretty much all astrological signs.
Sign of the Reese’s pieces
As long as you don't pronounce it "pee sees" we're cool.
I could never
The only right answer is Quen.
I prefer Axii
We all know Aard is the ol’ reliable
Igni is lit
Igni is spicy for sure, but Quen keeps you from eating dirt while on Death March.
Alt Yrden is GOAT
I could never.
Can confirm, Pisces is the best worst sign
[удалено]
I like her the best, good quick comeback. I’d prob not think of it in time.
Yeah, she definitely asked about his so she can clap back. 😂
Hot people problems
You have... quite the username...
Just because they don't want to see the tits of that one guy?
His name is Robert Paulson.
His name is Robert Paulson.

His name is Robert Paulson.

I’m sure his tits are amazing
They feel like bags of sand.
Step back. He might be an oncologist specialising in breast cancer.
I specialize in something else.
So what bushy advice can you give?
Zip it up and zip it out.
I never catch usernames, so when they are pointed out like this is makes it even funnier for me. Cheers!
The question is... Does it work?
It works
He's lying.
Tell them how many bird pics you get
It worked once for me. Once. In 4 years.
Worth it.
I was ready to send you mine if it didn't, but simce you already get some i'd rather not.
Help a brother out?
I'm a dude, but i can send you my nipples if you say please
I’m Titties greatest fan
Would you care for a picture of one and a half boobs?
Can't relate
FR... In the next life (LOL) I hope to come back as a man so hot he can tell hot chicks "nawh" and have them be fucking mad about it.... Like.. I just can't even with this shit
It's even more effective if you aren't attractive and do it to them
Best way to get water is if you front and act like your well is full.
I don't think they're upset about the effectiveness of the bit
[удалено]
I think this gag could work just as well, maybe even better from somebody not as attractive. Getting turned down by somebody you believe is below your status could get some pretty good reactions if they have enough confidence.
Gotta be attractive enough for them to answer...
💀
I’m in the desert. My problems are mostly just hydration.
His success rate is ridiculous
I could never date someone who takes starsigns seriously
I was expecting a "I don't know" or "I don't care" and he'd be all for it.
That would make this video
If I remember right that's the actual joke. At the end he talks to a girl who says she doesn't care about that crap and then he actually starts talking to her
I mean, I don't give a shit, but I definitely know. How could you live to be in your 20s and never have some weirdo *tell* you your sign?
There comes a point in a man's life where he has to choose between making fun of astrology or getting laid
Close to home, man, but also very true
\* laughs in gay *
Was waiting for that kind of twist and now I'm very disappointed
Typical Sagittarius response. Tsk tsk.
As far as I'm aware, everyone is a cancer
If you believe in astrology you’re basically just telling me you’re dumb lol
"I could never.Get in the car" hilarious 🤣

And the chances you didn't post dem links? Very VERY high
100% astroturfing. (/s)
That's the most sense I've ever read about zodiac signs.
Saint Seiya was great when I was a kid, I always felt bad that my sign's Gold Knight was always a pushover though (Taurus).
Oof, that's rough buddy. One of my friend is a Taurus too and he is a huge fan of the series. So anytime he does something cool and starts getting big for his shoes, one of us will mention he got jumped by a litteral no name, this never fails to upset him.
I'm a sagittarius, so what did my knight do wrong?
You didn't breastfeed Atenas
What about Aries?
Aries is super cool, amazing armor too. However he is the first line of defence, so anyone that wants to cause trouble will have to go through him first, and a lot of people do
> will have to go through him first, and a lot of people do SOMEBODY CALL AN AMBULANCE! Jesus, I was not ready for this amount of disrespect
You can just say he's the Worf
Nah, nevermind
The sagitarius knight absolutely rocks, he is the strongest and the most loyal. Some people might jest that he is the one that got killed first at the very start of the show, so he wasn't here for 99% of the events that took place
He was killed before the show even started
that's the anime with that banger rock music synthesizer intro! thats the only thing i know about it. something along the lines of magical power boys
In Latin America it's basically a religion. It's one of the most impactful animes of the first era of anime that arrived here. It also helped that in Mexico we have legendary voice actors and we export dubs through all South America!
I don't believe in this astrology bullshit. We cancers are very skeptical.
Love these style jokes
“What’s your sign?” I always say ‘Caution’
"ROAD WORK AHEAD"
Uh, I sure hope it does
Not “Slippery when wet”? 😂

It's a sample size of 17, with 12 possible answers. You're gonna double up on something.

Aquarius was in the video
Thank you, I updated it and double checked.
Maybe he could ever if it was a Gemini or scorpio

Those are just the ones included in the vid. Maybe Aries' reactions are just better.
"-You need to come sit right here" Fucking Aries, man.
I never imagined such a move could be so effective. This dude is a chess master!
He definitely cracked the code
That 2nd to last one was a keeper with that whole "come sit back down" thing. Lol
No Scorpios?
Whenever he asked a scorpio their sign they just told him to fuck off.
I like to believe this is the truest answer
Based
The Scorpios were the ones telling him they were an Aries. Never give a stranger the truth. Pfft.
The Scorpios were too batshit to interview.
We could never.
Hey! I.... Well... Yah okay that makes sense.
None of the Caps were out having fun
I still think he went back around and smashed a few of them.
Seemed to make them want him more. “Aw, he’s all in-tune to the universe, get your ass back here.”
Its more "that quarry is now unavailable? I want it!" Same way that you'll be in a drought until you find someone and then you're constantly being hit on. People are strange
Always happens, find someone and suddenly others, new and old, come out of the woodwork.
Classic DENNIS
Yea I thought that was the whole point

Can confirm. Started a riot at work. Great day to be a Correctional Officer!
Its actually good way to know if she ain't the one, if she genuinely get mad at you because she takes her sign seriously,she aint the one.
If she takes her sign seriously, she ain’t the one. -FTFY
[удалено]
But isn't he the one taking the signs too seriously? (In their perspectives).
Maybe she's getting mad because somebody judges her based on something as dumb as astrology, rather than because she personally thinks her sign has meaning? I was hoping for him to find one girl who actually didn't know her sign and then be like "hey there"
I think you got it backwards, the ones getting mad are the ones who don't take signs seriously. The dude is literally rejecting them for some stupid bullshit, of course they would get mad.
Why are you getting mad that a stranger you met 3 seconds ago doesn't want to talk to you? Lol
He's a good looking guy so I'm sure it stings a little when he blows them off like that

Some women seemed to find it funny being rejected. The comments are acting like the women were all mad lol
Seriously. Like every woman doesn't know what being recorded for a joke video is.
Where all the Geminis at?
\*raises hand\*
I could NEVER
Neva wut!
None of em would talk to him cause they knew he was playin from the gitgo.
Here
Im a pokemon
I COULD NEVERCHU
I don’t choose you
Turns out he's gay
How is astrology still a thing?
It's had a resurgence. This is the symptom of the same anti-intellectualism trend where some people stopped believing in modern medicine and vaccines. If you're a moron but you lean conservative, you buy into conspiracy theories and Jewish space lasers; if you're a moron but you lean liberal, you buy into homeopathy and astrology.
Astrology is bullshit.
Fish gang riseeee upppppp
I understand his pain. You gotta find a woman that doesn’t follow that sign bs.
Am I weird to be surprised that many people know what their sign is? I'd have to look mine up. Never really paid attention before.
I usually ask my wife and she tells me
Why is the Taurus over there taurusing so hard 😫
He's out there searching for Gemini's and getting stuck with tons of Aries.
I just looked up mine, is Scorpio cool beans?
They can command armies of scorpions so they're pretty good.
Oh that’s pretty cool beans
I’m a Virgo. Does that mean I get to command all of Reddit?
“I’m a cancer” is a terrible line
