How come reading tea leaves is seen as this sophisticated, witchy thing but if I slam dunk an open can of Chef Boyardee ravioli onto the pavement in the gas station parking lot to see what kind of soda the old ones think I should buy, foodstuff divination suddenly isn’t cool anymore?

    tea is cheap and you read the leftover leaves from drinking a cup. that is some wasteful and expensive divination.

      Plus, with an additional time preparation and consumption of tea\coffee implies, one can charm a person to better believe whatever comes in that forecast. It’s an important lag psychology-wise, that also kinda involves people themselves in the said process, so they have harder times doubting it all.

    It is ill advised because Mr. Boyardee is a scoundrel and his spirit will influence predictions so that they ultimately lead to hijinks, his council should only be trusted in matters of pasta.

    LOL. I mean, reading runes as a form of divination is basically on this level. The idea is that you fill a bag with runes, then dump it out on a surface and make your reading based on how they fall.

    Personally I prefer to use spaghettios divination in my practice.
