There are a lot of V-words that can be used to describe me
There exist a number of theories as to whom the figure represents.
The most recent interpretation is that the figure represents the healer Asclepius, who learned the secrets of keeping death at bay after observing one serpent bringing another healing herbs. To prevent the entire human race from becoming immortal under Asclepius' care, Zeus killed him with a bolt of lightning, but later placed his image in the heavens to honor his good works. It has also been noted that the constellation Ophiuchus is in close proximity in the sky to that of Sagittarius, which has at times been believed to represent Chiron (the mentor of Asclepius and many other Greek demigods), though Chiron was originally associated with the constellation Centaurus.
Another possibility is that the figure represents the Trojan priest Laocoön, who was killed by a pair of sea serpents sent by the gods after he warned the Trojans not to accept the Trojan Horse. This event was also memorialized by the sculptors Agesander, Athenodoros, and Polydorus in the famous marble sculpture Laocoön and his Sons, which stands in the Vatican Museums.
A third possibility is Apollo wrestling with the Python to take control of the oracle at Delphi.
There is also the story of Phorbas, a Thessalonikan who rescued the people of the island of Rhodes from a plague of serpents and was granted a place in the sky in honor of this deed.
This constellation, known from antiquity, is one of the 48 constellations described by Ptolemy. It has also been known as Serpentarius, a Latin form of its name.
The most important event in Ophiuchus' history was the Supernova of 1604, whose explosion was first observed on October 9, 1604, near θ Ophiuchi. Johannes Kepler saw it first on October 16 and studied it so extensively that the supernova was subsequently called Kepler's Supernova. He published his findings in a book titled De stella nova in pede Serpentarii (On the New Star in Ophiuchus's Foot). Galileo used its brief appearance to counter the Aristotelian dogma that the heavens are changeless.
It occurred only 32 years after another supernova in Cassiopeia that had been observed by Tycho Brahe; the last supernova before then had occurred in 1054 (see Crab Nebula), and after Kepler's, no further naked-eye supernovae were observed until 1987 (see Supernova 1987a.)

seriously
like, i'm pretty damn awesome
Your zodiac sign is the constellation the sun is passing through on the date you are born (if you believe in astrology). However, since the time that the zodiac wheel was invented, the precession of the Earth (it's wobbling about its axis) has altered both which star is the 'North star' (currently: Polaris, back then: probably Deneb) and the relative location of all the zodiac signs. For example, my birthdate would traditonally hold that I am a Capricorn, but in actuality the sun was passing through Sagittarius when I was born. Furthermore, the Earth has precessed enough in this time that there is actually a 13th zodiac: Ophiucus, the snake. I'm not sure how that fucks with the dates, though I'm sure wikipedia has more than you'd ever care to know.
It's all still B.S. but it's the worst kind of B.S. : uninformed B.S.

Stupid random Weird Al Trivia; The number 27 pops up almost always in everything he does; The Pisces lyric has 27 words in it.
GOD SHUT UP LOOK FOR ANY NUMBER AND IT WILL POP UP EVERYWHERE

Astrology is Stupid. Astronomy is Awesome.
"As soon as you discard scientific rigor, you're no longer a mathematician, you're a numerologist."
edit: WTF is wrong with 27? I'm a big fan of 27, tyvm.
He actually does put it in a lot of his songs
Weird Al throws the number 27 into random places and pretty much has since the beginning
oddly enough, Straight Outta Lynnwood is his 27th album, and has been his most successful
Yeah. Like the one you mentioned from hardware store. He did it in the polkamon song as well, in one lyric "Hold on a minute, there's still at least 127 more!"
Also, in his "lose yourself" parody, there's 27 beats before his lyrics deviate from the Eminem version.
Also in his videos, like "Like a Surgeon" the little number display in the waiting room goes from 26 to 27, the later he's going through patient after patient, and you see him go from patient 27 to 28.
On the cover of "Running With scissors" he's wearing the number 27.
There's plenty more, but this is just from my memory, I don't really feel like going to a website and pulling down a full list.
