Conversation with a Psychic
Deb is at a bar in the East Village. A Psychic sits at a table reading tarot cards. Deb sits beside him. He reads her cards.
Psychic: You’re very unstable right now.
Deb: Oh.
Psychic: Don’t worry, in the future, you will be stable. Wait, sorry, I misread the cards…
Deb: Great. I’ll be stable in the future.
Psychic: No, you may be stable in the future, and right now, you are definitely not.
Deb: But in the future I will be.
Psychic: No, in the future you may be.
Deb: So, I’ll probably be stable.
Psychic: Look, you’re not stable now and you’ll probably won’t be in the future. Let’s not get stuck on this, okay? Moving on…
