I'm bad at a cherrypicking because I value consistency.
If someone is going to deign to try to look through the crystal ball of my life and make stories, I want everything they tell me to make sense. This gives them a sense of credibility. If they only get the obvious stuff right, then it makes me feel like they are on the same level as those dubious people who pass themselves off as psychics. Even a broken clock is right twice a day. If you stab in the dark long enough, eventually something's going to get hit. That's not how I want my therapy to go, though.
