I couldn't help it and started laughing in her face and told her that was ridiculous and no one is psychic. She informed me that she was in fact psychic and enjoyed 'using her powers' to help people.

I went on a lengthy rant about how she was a) not psychic, b) taking advantage of people and c) ######ing the advancement of the human race as a whole.

We haven't really spoken much since then.
I've told this story a few times here:

A "psychic" wanted to retain me to sue a newspaper on the grounds of discrimination, for refusing to run her ads. I told her she would have to prove that she was psychic - I asked her "what am I thinking right now"? She hung up the phone.

Anyone could have guessed what I was thinking, and she couldn't even do that.
