Weird Fortune Cookies
-
Me too interested in such a tidbit of info...BTW I drank only coffee once or twice in my youth: saw no reason to having the shakes on my way to pee for the 18th time: wish now Pepsi had affected me the same way.
-
the most recent I got was
"You have good ideas and should write a book."I think the companies that make these should run their fortunes through a translator, into chinese and back again.
so a fortune like "don't drink and drive, you could kill someone on the drive home" would be:
"Don't the drink are too many or you can kill somebody to have you in the way automobile"
Yep, that sounds authentic.

Neither did I. Do you mind me asking the reason? Not looking for another atheism vs. religion discussion, I'm genuinely intrigued.
Probably because of the caffeine. I drink coffee because of the caffeine, but I used to work at a company that had a large contingent of Mormons, and they couldn't drink anything that contained caffeine.
Nice folks, though...

Yeah, Mormons may not drink coffee, tea, any alcoholic drinks.
Back to topic: here they don't give these fortune cookies (although I know what you are talking about).

The weirdest fortune I got from a cookie was "Do not over estimate your talents."

Thanks for the steering us back to topic. If folks are interested, I would be happy to start another thread about Mormonism. . .but I started this Fortune Cookie Topic just to be silly.

YOu don't have Fortune Cookies?????? What??? I find that very tragic. You have mood rings right?
Anyway I got one the other day . . .obviously planted by my wife. . .
"Be willing to admit that you are wrong. . .you are only human" To which my wife added. .."and you are always wrong"
You know most Fortune Cookies are quite content to just blow sunshine up your skirts and tell you how wonderful you are. YOu know it's not true, but you want to believe it. . .well now Finally . ..a fortune cookie that is not afraid to tell the truth. That's not afraid to face the hard facts. .. the JOHN McCAIN STRAIGHT TALK EXPRESS OF FORTUNE COOKIES!!!
This one really spoke to me -truly reached into my soul-- ..
"Your Judgement is a little off at this time"
how did they know?

My favourite was a slight misprint -
"Tim is the wisest counsellor" -
My latest. . .
"You are leader in your Own Way"
which is saying. . ."yeah you're a leader. . .but no one follows you.

I think fortune cookies are largely an American thing. I think I may have had one...once....a very long time ago. If my wife and I want to communicate by cryptic messages we use the fridge magnets.
