From: COKER@PHYSICS.UTEXAS.EDU (William R. Coker) Newsgroups: alt.magic Subject: LEGION EXPOSES! Date: 1 Nov 1995 18:12:55 GMT With a tip of the Hatlo hat to LEGION, here's a general-purpose stock spiel or formula reading for the type of folks you run into hereabouts, particularly on alt.magic.secrets, but actually on most any realm of the Internet. ``I see you as about 30 - 40 years old. You like to think of yourself as intelligent, but unfortunately you have never managed to attain your true potential. You can't psych yourself into the competitive, motivated frame of mind very often. You prefer to sit in front of the computer or the t.v., rather than deal with mundane reality. You tend to get upset over relatively unimportant things, while shrugging off or postponing your confrontations with major life obstacles. You don't find financial matters very interesting. I see that you probably have or once had a beard, or are thinking of growing one. You have never been satisfied with your appearance. Your weight is higher than it should be, but you don't think of yourself as fat--- yet. You feel very insecure around women, even ones you find relatively unattractive. You don't feel able to reveal your `true self' to anyone, and don't believe that you have any truly close friends. You like to think that you have a keen sense of humor, but frankly it rarely shows. You tend to feel superior to the general population, but especially at night before dropping off to sleep you admit to yourself that much of this attitude is a compensation for a strong sense of inadequacy. You read only sporadically, never write letters--- except e-mail--- and when you look back on a typical day you have to admit that you wasted a great deal of your time.'' [Of course this doesn't apply to me at all. Well, most of it doesn't apply. Well, urr, some of it doesn't apply. Well...] WRC
