Hello everyone.
On a whim I thought I'd add this to my story, just to see if I can make it work and add a level. But I'll need a few so I'm looking for a resource with an archive of Rainbow and/or Barnum statements. They don't need to be famous or have been in use, even though that would be nice.
Google gets me tonnes of hits, but all I've found is a bunch of sceptics pages debunking it offering the odd example (and often the same examples). Which is nice, but not what I'm looking for. I need quite a lot for my WP.
Alternatively you could post your favourite here. And I'm sure it'll be fun for a laugh for anyone stopping by. Here's a few good ones I've found so far:
"Most of the time you are positive and cheerful, but there has been a time in the past when you were very upset."
"You are a very kind and considerate person, but when somebody does something to break your trust, you feel deep-seated anger."
"I would say that you are mostly shy and quiet, but when the mood strikes you, you can easily become the center of attention."
"You are sometimes insecure, especially with people you don't know very well."
"You're having problems with a friend or relative."
"You tend to be too critical of yourself"
"You have considerable unused capacities that you have not yet turned to your advantage."
"At times you have serious doubts whether you made the right decision or did the right thing."
"Some of your goals are rather unrealistic."
"You have a need for other people to like and admire you."
"You have a generous and giving nature, even though there has been times when you’ve acted in a rather selfish way."
Just to clarify. I'm not looking for descriptions of cold reading techniques. These questions will be delivered on paper, so it won't be possible for any kind of dynamic delivery.
Thanks
