Tarot - or Tah-row?

So i read some tarot cards last night. I bought this little mini deck from Barnes and Noble cause i was addictied to those little giftboxes for a while (i got "Build your own Snowglobe", "Build your own Water Feature", "Build your own Zen Garden", "The Executive Gong" - for my boss, and of course, TAH-ROW).

i only opened it once, and threw it in a box so i could move it to my new apartment, a year later. Well. 4 months after the move, my friend Josh was over, and thought it would be a good idea to read them.

So Barnes and Noble's directions were really easy, and pretty ambiguous! Shit like:

"This could represent past situations, current issues, or the posiblities of a certain outcome". So basically some card could mean past, present, or future - right? So am i wrong when i look at that statement as:
"Interperate the cards however you friggin' want to!" Introspection? Or is it just so ambiguous that you can do nothing else except make shit up, that probably you haven't even thought of before?!!!!

i mean, it reminds me of those snooty people who believe in that crap and who say, Tah-row (emphasis on the second silible), instead of Tare-O! You know, the same people who say, Plah-zah, instead of Plaza. I feel like learning Tarot really well so i can hang out with those people, and they can pay me to read their cards, while speaking like that as well!
"Dah-ling!!! You look SIMPLY Chah-ming!!!"

Wah wah wah. Where do people learn to talk like that? You remember in the old movies when wealthy sociallites used to talk like that? Like Grace Kelly or that little girl who played opposite Shirley Temple in "The Little Princess"?
She said, "Oh Sarah! Aw you actually hon-gry?" She was like 8 years old, and she talked like New York royalty! Too bad Paris Hilton can't improve her image by actually speaking like she was well brought up and actually had talent. What a hooch!

And what's the deal with her? I won't go into that rant, but that dog should've been dead a LONG time ago! It DOES just go to prove that you don't have to have talent to be famous. Just a rich dad and a great body (along with a personal trainer, a chef, personal hair dresser, makeup artist, personal assistant, and unlimited bank accounts). I bet i could do it. i just need to hit that Powerball! I guess i gotta BUY a powerball ticket first......



Okay, okay. So you are asking, "Tell us, Cassie. Tell us what your tarot cards said!"

Sorry. i just don't think we know each other well enough to divulge that information.

If you're from boston, it's tahrow. If you're from Mississippi, it's tay-rot. If you're christian, it's heathen.

Personally, I pronounce it bullshit. It's a good racket to get into if you're good at faking it. If I ever had it done I don't think I could keep from cracking up.
