Army
Jimbo's official guide
To
mind games/tricks/meddling
I’ve included three kinds of mind-related antics into
the one guide on this occasion, not because they’re the
same (and they’re not), but because they can all be accomplished
with similar tactics.
Far too many people find out all too late that there’s
more to mind tricks than simply waving your hand and saying
“these are not the droids you’re looking for”,
which is likely to elicit a response like “What the hell
are you talking about? I asked you to put your trousers on,
stamp out that fire, return the chair to the outdoor furniture
department and pay for those marshmallows before you leave
the store” ... or something.
Working to your advantage in this situation is the fact that
most people seem to be strangely unfamiliar with the sight
of a fully-grown, semi-naked man roasting marshmallows over
a campfire in the middle of the fruit and veg section. With
that in mind, it shouldn’t be too hard to convince the
security guy that it’s not actually you who’s delusional,
but him. A simple “I don’t know what you’re
talking about, there’s no fire here ... and stop picturing
me naked” should do it. Any questions?
