avramI just tried out Yahoo’s online palm-reading tool, which ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
immlass pointed me at. It’s a pretty neat job of user-interface design for something I hadn’t thought could be done over the net. I don’t think much of it as a fortune-telling tool, though:
You have a good imagination, and often exhibit sensitivity to others.
Decent imagination, but I don’t think I’m particularly sensitive.
You have plenty of inner ambition, but you need to beware of a tendency toward indecisiveness.
OK, I’ll give it this one.
You are a warm hearted person, with much love to give. You probably like children, and exhibit many playful characteristics.
Nope.
There may be times in your life when you give in to feelings of sadness or depression.
Sure, but who doesn’t?
You are likely to make decisions based on intuition or feelings rather than intellect. Your emotions sometimes overpower your common sense.
Nope, that ain’t me.
You are naturally charming and inclined to be flirtatious.
Hah!
There are inconsistencies in your energy level, possibly triggered by external factors or emotional changes.
Yeah, again, this describes just about everyone I know.
You have a great deal of ambition in life, and the energy to make your dreams come true.
This goes oddly with the second one, above. And no, it’s not really true, though it’d sure be nice.
You have a basically strong constitution, and should enjoy good health most of the time.
Mm, yeah, I guess.
You were probably given a good start in life by your parents. This could be based on your general upbringing, or on physical characteristics you inherited.
Eh, again, I suppose.
