Tonight I got the following fortunes in my cookies:
1. A real patriot is the fellow who gets a parking ticket and rejoices that the system works.
2. Great things happen when men and mountains meet.
To top that, the dictionary I used to check the spelling of fortune spells cookie Cooky.
-
I got a cookie once that said "You did something wrong. Think! What did you do?"
If that wasn't enough the cookie was totally stale.
-
This one:
"They can because they think they can."
Yikes!!!!
-
I always just get a bunch of lucky numbers.
-
I have an old friend who was told a few lucky numbers by a fortune teller in India in the 1980's. He'd never played the lottery before, but decided to play the numbers for a nominal amount. Of course, he won, about 100 dollars, and still regrets not having had more faith and wagered more. The fortune teller had also told him the names of his and his wife's parents and had gotten them correct.
-
"You will find your Prince Charming."
I got that at two different restaurants.
-
The only "fortune" I have ever actually saved:
"For those who like peace and quiet: a phoneless cord."
It would occasionally fall out of my wallet and disappoint someone who thought I was carrying around an inspirational message.
-
I got "His eyes wander, but his heart stays at home."
I was like, "Who? That bastard."
-
"Geese can be troublesome."
-
"Geese can be troublesome."
Disappointing is right! Do not buy into this!

"Maybe someday man will
walk live on moon"
"Perhaps your stupidity could be the downfall"
-
"Maybe someday man will walk on moon"
Shouldn't you be fired as a fortune-writer if you predict things that have already happened? Unless these are fortune cookies for doubtful conspiracy theorists.
-
It really doesn't inspire confidence in the cookie's freshness.

"Maybe someday man will walk on moon"

Typo, it was "man will LIVE on moon". But I have to think the only way you get fired as a fortune cookie writer is if you just start using profanity.

"If people are jumping out of windows, there must be a reason."
-
I never saw this thread until now, but a couple weeks ago I received one that gave me a phone number to buy more fortune cookies. Nothing else.
-
Real fortune I got- "You are not illiterate."
-
"In God we trust, all others must pay cash"
-
"Do not follow where the path may lead. Go where there is no path...and leave a trail."
Of what???
-
:)Society prepares the crime; the criminal commits it.:)
It is bordered by smiley faces.

"Go Eff Yourself."
Man, I never quite got over that one.
-
"He is looking at you fondly"
-
Years back, I was staying with family in San Francisco, in which we went to two Chinese places about a month apart. Both times, my cousin's former husband received the same fortune:
"Lock your doors."

"Be on the alert to recognize your prime at whatever time of your life it may occur."
Either someone took too many English classes or this is long hand for "Don't screw up your life."
-
Cookie was empty. No fortune.
-
One cookie:
"Fear is the darkroom where
negatives are developed."
The next cookie:
"Ignore previous cookie."
-
This sheds a little light on the subject.
