Man, this is one crazy question. I can’t decide if it has anything to do with Western outlaws or figuring out who sawed off the head of a women who just sat in a shmancy restaurant for two weeks, waiting for her lover to come back to her, while he was long gone to 1955 with a werewolf, and never coming back.
It would be easier to pull a tractor out of my butt.
’‘scratches head’’ Technically, I see two different things being asked. One about method, and the other about experience and street smarts that can’t be taught in a course, unless it’s psychology or something, and even then. It’s just I really don’t see how the two relate, so I can’t give an encompassing answer that may hit two vultures with one bone.
But then again maybe there isn’t more to figure out than what is asked…in which case, I’d say taking a habit out of a rat is harder. I mean taking a rabbit out of a hat is probably pretty complicated, but it’s something you can learn and be sure of, once you master it. Unless it’s one of em crazy killer rabbits from Xena, but then, it wouldn’t even let you put it in a hat. But convincing a rat that they suck and must change their ways, even if you’re a shrink, or a close friend, or a really old man who’s seen it all, you can’t ever be sure, no matter how many notches under your belt. You got to get to the person and understand them.
If you were once a rat or still are, it’s probably easier than being some guy who studied years of college or uni to help people with drug addictions, but have never done drugs yourself. It’s a stereotypical example by which I mean no offense. I just can’t come up with anything better. I’m a rat, but I’m one of those who just likes to curl up in hay and sleep. (like Ratboy above me, although I bet he never sleeps :D) I don’t chew on cigars or maul small time restaurant workers as they take out the trash.
