Fair point - I guess it would be interesting to see how accurate many “people watchers” are, empirically.

That being said, I think I’m willing to suspend disbelief a little. I do think there’s an art to being able to not only read people, but to express it in a way that conveys the underlying point.

… the same way a good comedian can make an audience say, “oh yeah, I always noticed that but never really realized until you said it.”

Is it true? Maybe, who knows? But it seems like it could be, and that’s enough for me to find it interesting :)

I'm not sure if this is what you want, but https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_reading is very interesting.
