"Baby why you gotta be so mean?" The zodiac is a fascinating system that many people turn to for insights into personality traits, behaviors, and compatibility. While every zodiac sign has its unique strengths and challenges, some signs are often perceived as being a bit more sharp-edged, vindictive or difficult (to say the least) to deal with. In this article, we'll delve into the four zodiac signs commonly considered the "meanest," exploring the characteristics that contribute to this perception and how these traits manifest in their interactions with others. To lighten the mood, we'll include some funny quotes about each sign's mean streak.

The 4 Meanest Signs in the Zodiac

Good Friday evening, everyone! I hope you all had an amazing workweek. Heading into next week, a large troughing pattern will move in for the eastern half of the country, allowing some of us to get a break from this summertime heat. Unfortunately, this is not the case out West as ridging will dominate and continue to bring above-average temperatures. Overall, this pattern across the U.S. typically limits precipitation, so don’t be surprised if your area stays dry for at least a couple of days in a row.

Hollywood child stardom has taken its toll on many actors through the decades. Lani O'Grady, for one, found fame in the 1970s on the TV family series, Eight is Enough. O'Grady followed in the footsteps of her brother, actor Don Grady, an original Mouseketeer and member of another popular TV family show: My Three Sons. Their mother, Mary B. Grady, was a talent agent who represented several child actors. But Lani, who would also eventually become an agent, died in 2001 just one week before what would have been her 47th birthday.

New England's weather pattern will slowly be evolving over the next few days. For much of this past week, New England's basic weather setup has involved an expansive upper level low hanging around eastern Canada with high pressure at the surface.
