Would you rather I was in Jail?

Sometimes my mother comes downstairs when I'm working and interrupts me. She doesn't understand the whole computer thing and thinks I should get a job. She doesn't appreciate that I'm a very successful real-estate broker in Second Life and thinks that I just sit around playing games all day. Needless to say it can be very distracting having her yell at me that I should get a job when I'm trying to close real estate deals so I've come up with the following Jedi Mind Trick to get rid of her. I say to her "Would you rather I was in Jail?". 

This works every time.

But I already paid for that!

One of my favorite mind tricks I like to play  is when I go to pay for something at the store like pop or chips. After the clerk has rung up my purchase I wave my hand in front of his or her face sort-of casual like and say "But I already paid for that". The trick is to say it very calmly and matter-of-factly like you already paid for it. Sometimes they think you did. If they try to say you didn't usually I just return the item to the shelf and leave. Contrary to what you probably believe most Jedi mind tricks only work on smart people and convenience store clerks aren't always that bright.

What do you think Jabba the Hutt and Princess Leia did

Now this is an excellent Jedi mind trick you can do with almost any of your dates. What you do is when you're talking bring up the question of what Jabba the Hutt was doing with Princess Leia before she was rescued. This will naturally get your date thinking of what they were almost certainly doing. The possibilities are very exciting and undoubtedly she'll get very excited thinking about it. And naturally as she can't have Jabba the Hutt she'll make do with the next best thing, in this instance that would be you.
