Let me guess, you're a 50-year old Libra.
- tzs 15y agoI assume you guessed 50 from the fact that I iterated MD5 1960 times so assume that was my birth year. That is correct. I don't see how you (incorrectly) guessed Libra. If you took the 108 as the 108th day of the year and assumed that was my birthday, that would be April 18th, which would be Aries. If you took it as meaning January 8th, that would be Capricorn. Did you assume it was 10/8? That would give Libra. Anyway, the 108 is not a date. It refers to Math 108, an undergraduate math course at Caltech that bestows a curse upon those who take it. Forever afterward, the number 108 starts appearing in their lives more than normal. One girl I knew there went so far as to build a digital clock that held 1:07 for two minutes so that she would stop seeing 1:08 on her clock.

- jerfelix 15y agoYes, I was guessing that 108 was the date 10/8. But guessing in a way that increased my odds of being correct (from roughly 1 in 365, to 1 in 12). Since I didn't know if 10/8 was a date, or maybe a special date but not your birthday, I thought guessing "Libra" was a better way to go. I'm sure psychics use techniques like this, as well. In fact, I can see someone special in your life, and the letter "K" seems prominent. hmm...
