I don't normally allow spectators to watch while I perform a prediction for a customer. Since Four Hips thought that spectator was the term used for whatever was left on his plate after eating French Fries, I'm not too concerned of breaking protocol.
"Do I really have to do it?" - Four Hips
"Yes!" - Me
"But spinning might make me throw up." - Four Hips
"Fine, just give me the pizza." - Me
(Sounds of pizza box being pushed through the slot)
"This is missing half the pieces!" - Me
"Uh... that's how it was when I bought it." - Four Hips
"But it's not even cooked yet!" - Me
"Can we just get on with this? I don't want to miss lunch." - Four Hips
"Lunch is not for another hour and a half." - Me
"Yeah, but I go early." - Four Hips
"All right, what question do you have for the All-Seeing Oracle?" - Me
"Right. Okay, I'm a little nervous." - Four Hips
"You should be. You are standing in the presence of the great one!" - Me
"Yeah, so what's it like in that locker?" - Four Hips
"What?" - Me
"I mean, you have a microwave, right? And people bring you pizzas all day?" - Four Hips
"Uh... yes." - Me
"So, um... did you apply for this job?" - Four Hips
"Four Hips, do you have an actual question for me today?" - Me
"Oh, right, yes, yes I do." - Four Hips

"Well?" - Me
"Um, do you know what we're having for lunch today?" - Four Hips
"For lunch?" - Me
"Yeah, like do you know what's on the... menu?" - Four Hips
"You mean to tell me, you don't know what's for lunch today?" - Me
"Nope." - Four Hips
"Do you ever know?" - Me
"Nu-uh." - Four Hips
"Do you even know what it is you're eating for lunch when you're in the middle of eating it?" - Me
"Oh man, that would be awesome!" - Four Hips
"Turkey Ka-bobs." - Me
"Yes, please." - Four Hips
"No, that's what you're having for lunch today." - Me
"For reals?" - Four Hips
"Yes, but they post the menu on the door of the cafeteria. You could've figured this out yourself." - Me
"No way." - Four Hips
"I'm afraid so." - Me
"There's a door to the cafeteria?" - Four Hips
"Look, your time is up. Please move along." - Me
"Turkey Kabobs are my favorite." - Four Hips
"I bet and you just gave away half a perfectly good pizza for nothing. Ha!" - Me
"No I didn't." - Four Hips
"Yes, you did." - Me
"I don't think so." - Four Hips
(sound of Four Hips licking his lips)
"Wait! Hey! How did you do that? I was just holding that pizza in my hands and now it's gone!" - Me
"I have a condition. I'm really sorry." - Four Hips
"Be gone with you!" - Me
"Thanks for the free prediction! I can't wait for lunch!" - Four Hips
