7. Common sense

8. I don’t believe in horoscopes

9. Take any horoscope for any sign, or any tarot reading for any person, it’ll apply to you. Same goes for psychics, it’s just very vague, general statements that will work for anyone. When you realize that it’s pretty obvious.

10. When they ask for a credit card….
