I don't mess with fortune tellers, tarot cards, or anything like that. I believe in self-fulfilling prophecies, so if you tell me I'm going to have bad fortune, I believe that I will end up creating the bad fortune. The same can be said about being told good things, but who wants to risk that? I'd rather just live my life minute to minute, hoping nothing goes wrong and happy when things go right.
This cartoon doesn't make me want to visit a fortune teller anymore than I did before. This is exactly my worst case scenario. The fortune teller already knows that once I hear what's coming, I'm going to want to kill myself. I wonder if he had to pay extra for the noose, or if you can get a discount if you bring your own. These are the types of questions a frugal person thinks of.
