Is a horoscope something that affects your life?

This week i had the alien-shaped [in his avatar pic at least] beautifully named Fungus the Bogeyman aka @bigstevie1967 join me as co-host to see… and what fun we had…

My co-host this week was aka Fungus the Bogeyman, the name of a well known Raymond Briggs character – whereas Stevie is just a character ! He’s a total sports nut with a primary interest in football (that’s soccer for the North Americans !) and also a true Scot with a passion for irreverent humour and 80s music . And given his F.L.O.P. appearances have usually been under the “misdirection” banner, I am not sure any of this is true !

We invited you to get creative with fake but realistic sounding and strangely accurate horoscope entries and once again it was an 18 minute or so trender…

As per usual i gave out a few examples to, you know, get you in the mood…

i couldn’t resist having a go at my on-again off-again nemesis:

Today people will see behind the mask you wear to the real you behind it. #StrangelyAccurateHoroscope @KeshaTedder

Jar Jar Binks

[With the “on-again off-again” bit obviously referring to the Jar Jar Binks suit she insists on wearing out]

And recent Adam Sandler movies continue to be the go-to-dig because, you know, recent Adam Sandler movies:

Your next movie is SOMEHOW going to be even worse than ur previous one & one before that #StrangelyAccurateHoroscope

You may find yourself jumping to conclusions in the near future.

A decision you make today will likely be something you are long remembered for.

Pinterest was not spared:

An experiment you do in the kitchen today will yield unexpected results.

Posting a comment on a race/politics/religion post will make you some new “friends”

Our friendly neighbourhood Seinfeld Bot was on hand to give me the happy face:

And my co-host Fungus unleashed an arsenal of great tags for this game of which here are just a few:

But we know why you’re here and as always there were too many great responses to capture them all, but here are some of the ones that really jumped out at me and have earned you a much-fought-over spot on this week’s:

FISH LIST OF PRIZEWORTHYNESS [F.L.O.P.]

Goth Librarian brought the puns:

Tony pointed us to the source of love:

Quietly she shared a ‘scope that sounded fairly personal:

Mat sounded in need of a neck massage:

Dreamweasel’s prediction resonated with a lot of people:

While Geff kept the puns rolling in:

Vlad’s ‘scope felt strangely influenced:

Veldot went a little creepy:

Jim was spot on [sigh]:

As was Juggernaught… for other people i mean…

Fardog spoke prophecy:

Oscar suspected he had figured out how it worked:

Juggernaught wanted his Nickleback:

Aimée spoke a truth over so many people

Binksie shared what she could sea:

Kat shared a moment:

Punstrated was eerily accurate:

Dogma managed to sneak testicles into a family game, but so well:

Buffy gave us reason to question:

Fate gave us reason to believe:

Oscar covered the extremes:

David went for misdirection and clever:

Tookie had something to say to her coworkers:

Nate brought the Trump:

Whale didn’t realise it, but he pre-empted this week’s game…

i LOVED this one so much, maybe cos of the name Zvjezdan and the certainty of his tweet:

Yuri broughtt the awkward:

Thomas covered pretty much every day:

Ice had something about Mary:

St. Simeon almost had us there:

Elsea brought the silver lining:

Yung was surprisingly specific:

Buffy spoke the truth:

Sailwind was also accurate:

St. Simeon was back with his own confession:

Antonius was not wrong:

Lulu brought the geography:

Tina brought the culture, or lack of it:

Zvjezdan summarised the movies:

Mary spoke a truth:

Daryl had a few:

Jessica made us sad:

Turd just may be on to something:

El Vegan brought the puns like an englishman in new york:

Star Wars came to play with this warning:

Todd gave us this beauty:

Jaiami brought the irony slash hypocracy:

Brian got philosophical

Which brings me to the TOP FIVE tweets of last week:

I LOVED this offering from Bran who had a lot of great ones this week:

Jaiami perhaps had the most accurate ‘prediction’:

Mad almost took it with this one which was a deeply profound analysis:

Katt’s felt somewhat like a confessional booth appearance [which SO many people seemed to resonate with]

But for me this week it was Martin all the way with this most glorious of Random offerings:

Well played everybody and especially all of you who made this week’s F.L.O.P. list – you are all F.L.O.P.s in my eyes and i hope to see you for next week’s game where the amazing Nish Nazim from India will be co-hosting what should be a really fun game…

Hope to see you then. Thank you ALL for continuing to make @AFrikkinHashtag an incredibly amazing International Hashtagging Game of Mystery… or something like that. Thank you to all of you who put special effort in to keeping it FAMILY and continuing to emphasis FUNNY and CLEVER and MISDIRECTIONAL and RANDOM [but related] – they make it fun for us and hopefully you too…

See you tomorrow…
