I hate people.

"I can't get [menintights] to talk to me about what's going on in her life, so I'm going to go to a clairvoyant and take his words over [menintights]'s."

Clairvoyant: [menintights] is a victim of a broken heart.
Busybody: I don't think [menintights] has been romantically involved with anyone lately.
Clairvoyant: Well, uh, it has nothing to do with a boyfriend.
Busybody: Okay?
Clairvoyant: She's still being heartbroken because of a male, though.
Busybody: Who?
Clairvoyant: *sigh* I don't want to say his name...
Busybody: Tell me!
Clairvoyant: Okay, but only because you insist.
Busybody: Uh-huh?
Clairvoyant: It's...
Busybody: ???
Clairvoyant: ... it's her father.
Busybody: I knew it!

Later...

Busybody: So is it true???
Me: Um, no.
Busybody: But the clairvoyant is accurate about everything else! (Plus, I've always hated your father and I think he's an incompetent loser, so obviously it's natural that you'd be upset about him.)

WTF.

All "Psychics" are scams, but mix it with a nosy/gullible acquaintance and you've got yourself a horrible cocktail.
I prescribe a bucket of cold water for your "Busybody" buddy.

I'm getting a psychic premonition now, you have an annoying pimple on your nose. What are the chances I might be right? I'm also getting advice from beyond, stop talking to this loser

Is that all that people ever care about is relationships. No wonder you feel the way you do. I hate people for the same reason. I just ignore those people.

i know a person who is on the verge of psychosis who desperately needed to know what my opinion of him was.

he sees "psychics" regularly and parts with money that he complains bitterly that he does not have, and on a few occasions he wanted to know about me.

the psychic accurately assessed him as a person who did not trust his own evaluations, and she also described accurately that he did not have a job and that he was always desperately wanting to know what is going on that people do not tell him.

he was convinced of her credibility, and when he told her about me, she said to him that i saw him as a beast of burden, and that i would use him in anyway that i could.

she told him that i was not concerned about his welfare in any way, and i use him as a cheap tool to perform tasks that i could not be bothered to attend to.

obviously he told her about the odd jobs that i give him so he can earn a few dollars, and his essential attitude was what she picked up on and played on to seduce him to think she was correct in her "ethereal" appraisal of the matter.

he was incensed at me and i told him that if he pays dollars that he can not afford to hear the words of a trickster who plays upon his mood as he proffers his description of what he wants to know more about, then all he was hearing was an amplification of what he feared.

people who resort to clairvoyants are seriously deficient in their situational awareness.

I'm skeptical of psychics. I did go to one during college and she told me I would be a great violinist. Well I do play an instrument but not the violin. I play piano.

If I decide to try to predict the outcome of geopolitical events, I just look back on history, take human nature into the equation, and just list off a bunch of different scenarios that COULD happen, and if Im feeling particularly bored, only then would I issue a probability of it happening. Its not so much predicting as it is just analysing the data and deciding that some events can happen if various conditions are right... or wrong.


and yeah meningitis, I know what ya mean. Sadly talking behind peoples backs/being a dickwad is a major NT necessity.

Please don't get involved with these people. Even though I'm an atheist, I still would come to these idiots for help. I was so convinced in some cases that it hurt me very badly.

I try not to be close-minded but I think it is much more healthy to remain a skeptic. I do like to hear from these people for free when they want to offer advice or what my astrology says. I've had mostly good advice from some of them since they don't do it for the benefit of money.

But be weary of any of these people even if you think you're skeptic. They do more harm than damage imo.
