53. It may be my dream career...
actually it isn't far removed from my real career since I have to be semi psychic in it very often to figure out what is going on.

Actually, psychic-ness, (not to minimize true psychic abilities that may not exist) is really just powerful trained observations of human behavior in certain settings.

For instance, a blackjack dealer learns to read his/her players at a table and can bluff them with the best of them if they are good and can read what is on their mind/cards.

Now me, I just read human behavior usually as it relates to people having problems. There are infinite versions of a finite set of types of problems. 'tain't hard really to get it right 80% of the time, then the details fill in.

As for online, behaviors are repetitive, and it becomes obvious when someone or someone(s) are continually playing tag team gotcha... in service of another realm.

so cryptically speaking, I'd say that my dream career might not be different from my actual career.

:crazy:

68. That doesn't just apply to cards.
I swear that I could figure out what someone was about to order to drink a good 90% of the time when they came up to me at the bar while I bartended.

And I would agree with you as well, with online behavior. The repetitiveness is an obvious show of their hand that they are completely unaware of. Especially when many others are observing their behavior, yet not responding to their posts.

69. see, you are a psychic too!
we could start a business and do well... hell, i bet psychics aren't as good as you or i would be at it!

online behavior is sooooo fucking predictable..... and i don't even know why i bother to observe it i should just turn off my computer sometimes when i see certain things beginning to happen.

but that's my fucking problem, i'll shut up :endrant:

Sock puppets are always discovered and banned here almost immediately. They're never allowed to stick around for months. Everyone knows that. :)

mebbe I can explain it better there

but basically a sockpuppet is a puppet made out of a sock :P

in other contexts, it might be someone that is being used like a puppet to espouse your views when you are unable to do that.

you choose

What you see is what you get.

I did, however, follow an interesting sockpuppet call out a few months ago that led me to many different message boards. I felt like a sleuth -- it was intriguing.

Your sockpuppit is really cute -- looks like a purple Kermit the Frog. It might make a good plan for one of my art classes. :think:
