Astrology is real and Virgos are the worst, scientists confirm

A RESEARCH team has concluded that astrology is real and Virgos are total arseholes to a man. 

A rigorous programme of double-blind peer-reviewed tests have confirmed astrology has a solid scientific basis and, more importantly, that Virgo is the worst sign of the zodiac by a margin almost too large to measure.

Professor Henry Brubaker, of the Institute for Studies, said: “Caring and dependable? Bollocks. Uptight, judgmental bastards more like.

“The grounding of astrology in fact is a mere side-issue compared to what we’ve proved about Virgos. For too long they’ve been overshadowed by more immediately annoying signs like Leo and Capricorn. But the data doesn’t lie.

“From their irritating compassion to their robot-like mindsets, there are no positives. Famous Virgos include Ivan the Terrible, Caligula, Lance Armstrong and skin-suit serial killer Ed Gein. Exactly.

“If you know a Virgo, cut them out of your life immediately. They’ll try to use their malevolent emotional intelligence to stop you, but don’t listen. Science is on your side.”

Virgo Tom Booker said: “Shit. They’ve rumbled us.”

Friend struggling through messy break-up 100 per cent at fault

A FRIEND heartbroken that her boyfriend has dumped her without warning is entirely, unequivocally responsible, it has emerged. 

23-year-old Lauren Hewitt has leant heavily on friends for sympathy after her relationship ended just three days before their first anniversary, before revealing it only happened because she ‘accidentally’ slept with her boyfriend’s best friend.

Friend Marie Fisher said: “We all showed up like girls’ girls, comforting her and telling her she was better off without him and f**k the patriarchy and all that. We soon regretted it.

“Over rosé, Lauren explained how it was all Jack’s fault for putting his best friend in a position to seduce her by not attending a house party because he was at a funeral. I’ll be honest, we struggled to go-girl our way through that one.”

Hewitt continued: “I told Jack to come to the party in case something happened, but he said the funeral was more important even though it was the biggest party since James Bates had a free house in 2017 and shat in his own kettle. Anton from Love Island was DJing.

“So, even though that makes it his fault I went to bed with Olly, he totally refused to admit it, dumped me, and I just can’t get over it. Why? Why now? All my girls are saying the same.”

Fisher said: “I’m trying to help Lauren through this because I’m already committed and I don’t want to look a dick. But, later on, I might nip out and shag Jack.”
