The Mystery of Peter Answers

What is interesting to me about peteranswers is how some people truly use it as it is intended, which is as a great free fortune teller, but that others stoop down to asking obvious questions they already have to know the answer to! Questions like, “who is behind me?” and “what color is my t-shirt?” It is beyond comprehension why people would need to ask questions like this.

Sometimes people like to combine multiple questions into one, for what possible reason I can’t fathom. Here is an example of a question recently posted here:

what is my sister’s name, what is my mom and dad’s name, and who is my best friend.

Now there are a couple of obvious things wrong here. First, he is asking a question but he doesn’t use a question mark. What kind of a person asks a fortune teller a question online but then doesn’t use a question mark? Or maybe two question marks?? <– Like that.

Second, he is asking multiple questions on one line. That is not suggested as good practice. If peter answer is in a good mood that day I think it possible you will still get a good response, but it makes it that much less so likely! Make sure you only ask your free fortune teller one question at a time!

Third, here we go with the crazy questions. Why does this guy need to know who is best friend is or the names of his sister, mom and dad? Is it possible he is an orphan and is looking for information about his real family? I suppose it is possible, but really I think what is going on here is he is testing peter to see how accurate he is.

The problem with that, is a fortune teller is not for telling things you already know, a free fortune teller is supposed to tell you your future! Things you don’t already know. That is where the interest is. And so that is where your questions should be.

Instead of asking a dumb question like “what color is my t-shirt” you could ask, “what color will me prom tuxedo be next year?”

Hopefully Peter won’t respond with, “Sorry Charlie, no prom for you next year.”
