Reincarnation

"In your previous life you were a star."

"Really?"

"... then the star shed its outer layers, scattering a great amount of chemical elements in the interstellar space..."

"Oooh."

Ritual

"Place all the items in a bowl containing benzine, alcohol, kerosene, and acetone, and light them on fire at midnight while intoning the conjuration I gave you. Soon you will be a millionaire."

"I award the plaintiff one million dollars in damages."

Psychic

"I'm seeing an awesome psychic! The other day she told me to say home on Saturday or else I risked being involved in a car accident."

"So? What happened?"

"She was exactly right! I stayed home the whole Saturday and wasn't in any car accident at all!"

"Amazing! You have to give me her phone number."
