I know that with con games, I detect them by something not smelling right in combination with an emotional pull intended to move me to their desired action.

With Shit Tests, I know people have put up extensive lists of shit tests, but is there a way to sense them rather than memorising lists?

For example; one way to sense a shit test is "As a result of her words, I feel like I should do X, but Is X what I want to do, how does it serve me?"
