I recently got a fortune cookie at the end of a wonderful Chinese dinner. I opeded it up, and proceeded to chew cookie pieces while I read what was to befall my fate.
The cookie said: ” Thank goodness! I finally got out of that cookie!” I kept it to place next to the other one on an old mirror at home. That one read: ” Help! I’m being held captive in a fortune cookie factory!”.
My friend however holds them dear- believing them true fate markers. She had one she kept that told her that her rival would soon be gone. Sure enough, this happened in the same week. Bad boss- caught and fired. Her next saved one said that after a difficult journey, she would win money. Sure enough, a court case was found in her favor. It had been a hellacious journey to get there to that point.
Another acquaintance won lottery $ money (modest, yet winnig amount for rent that month)
Have you had my humorous type of fortunes from your cookies, or have you had words which harbors truths in your future or fortune?
And also- do you eat the fortune cookie? Or crumble and dash?

I eat my fortune cookies but do not believe they hold any magic powers. Infact, the last one I got said ” You are a lucky man.”
I am a women and I have no desire to change that. haha
I have one I kept which says, “Fortune cookie only real fortune. Don’t listen to any other fortune.” I almost choked on the cookie as I read it.
OK last night we had Chinese take out and all for fun I grabbed a Fortune Cookie and it read…“Your charms have not gone unnoticed by the angels.”
WTF does THAT mean? Am I now heading towards a dirt nap? Will I have a Hell’s Angel crew knocking at my door soon?
But if I do what we always do and that is to add “in bed” to the end ot the fortune….now we are talking! :D
@Cruiser Oh man, thanks for that, spewing coffee across the table here.
So mine should have read, you are a lucky man in bed. : lol
I have never had a fortune cookie
I’ve eaten lots of Chinese food but never a fortune cookie. I’ve also never eat McDonalds but that’s another story
Haha weird, I had Chinese food last Friday. I really didn’t get a fortune though, it described a personality. It said I was joyous and that people like me. I’m like fuck that, I’m a grouch and everyone hates me. And that’s just damn fine.
But no. I don’t believe my fortune will be handed to me via cheap ass faux Chinese food takeout. Although it is a strange and mysterious world…
My most true fortune ever was one I got when I was eleven. It said, “You love Chinese food.” I felt ripped off at the time, but I never had one so accurate.
