Starting around the New Year we get to listen to lots of predictions. Some seers claim to see, know, and tell all.
California Psychics has a one-minute YouTube video commercial titled Tomorrow Starts Today which at 0:40 shows the phrase Satisfaction Guaranteed.
But, when you look at the fine print they really claim very little. Check out the Terms & Conditions web page which contains their Satisfaction Guarantee. The title of the very first paragraph is:
“FOR ENTERTAINMENT ONLY”
The following four paragraphs are titled ACCEPTANCE PROCEDURE, PRIVACY POLICY, OUR SERVICES, and RULES OF SERVICE. Then comes their sixth paragraph titled Our Satisfaction Guarantee, that hilariously begins by disclaiming:
“We don't guarantee that our psychics' predictions will come true, but we do our best to ensure that you enjoy the reading.”
Last September I blogged about Disclaiming Responsibility. A poster with the California Psychics disclaimer might look more like the following:
The crystal seer was adapted from an image at the Library of Congress, and the blindfolded couple came from a VD prevention poster at the IHM.
