PERVERTED PREDICTIONS

Most of you are probably familiar with the fact that the editor of this paper is rumored to have a sort of sixth sense (not really, actually we are god and we know everything but we thought we would be humble just this once.) and uses it to make predictions about the future. Well we have decided to go public and do horoscopes. But we feel that ours are more reliable than others so we call them....
