duovamp 06-12-2008, 01:50 PM I got the most bullshit fortune cookie ever recently. It told me not to put all my eggs in one basket. That's not a fortune, that's extremely common advice! I wanted a prophecy!

waltermcphilp 06-12-2008, 02:21 PM you gotta say "in bed" after the fortune for it to work.
Nimrod's Son 06-12-2008, 03:16 PM the best fortune i ever got simply said "beware of the monkey." i'm assuming it must mean people born in the year of the monkey, or the year itself. everyone else got normal fortunes, too.
TheMilstead 06-12-2008, 05:48 PM Just finished up some pinball for Wii...I'm about to go play music in an hour.
I got a fortune about a year back that said something to the effect of, "There will be peace in your home soon." It gave me a good laugh.

Floppy Nono 06-12-2008, 06:37 PM You know what the worst fortune cookies on earth are? The ones that, rather than give you a prediction about your future, just tell you something nice about yourself. "you're well loved and admired by your friends." Well gee, thanks a lot, but could you tell me something i didn't already know?
SlingeroGuitaro 06-12-2008, 07:33 PM my girlfriend got the greatest ever:
'a submissive wife is a mans greatest possession'

yeah i hate these PC fortunes too. they should have some that are like 'you're a shitty person' or 'you suck in bed' to balance things out

bardy 06-12-2008, 09:58 PM I got one that said "you are pretty" once and it made me blush
Ol' Couch Ass 06-12-2008, 10:02 PM I need straight up fortunes such as "You will be hit by a bus later today"
bardy 06-12-2008, 10:06 PM I like the fortune cookies that are dipped in white chocolate
i'm terrified of heights and there's these two roof hatches we're supposed to open and check on occassion during our rounds.
i am aware of my fear and i still refuse to check them,opting to have my co workers do it.it's a known fact around the security office and they really don't care either way.
but it really hasn't improved my life. just gets me out of doing it.

acknowledging the fear and refusing to do it keeps you from falling and dying, thus improving your life

Plus I get an annual raise anyway, no matter if I check it or not! That's gotta be related somehow.
SlingeroGuitaro 06-13-2008, 03:31 AM annual raise + not dying = awesome

Starla 06-13-2008, 04:53 AM I'm afraid of hitting a deer. I was talking to this old guy today who told me that his friend died when he hit a big buck, and that one of his antlers came through the window shield and pierced his neck and hit an artery. Since it was winter and the snow was quite deep, no one found him for a couple days. This could happen to me.
