Fortune Cookie Omens
I got a fortune cookie yesterday with a message that was exactly what I was hoping it would say. No confusing double meanings, no ambiguity. It was as though I was in a movie, waiting for a sign, and lo and behold, there was the sign.
Should I continue the movie and follow the cookie's advice?

Depends if you like suprises in your life. If you do then follow the cookie's advice. Personally I have always wanted to install paranoid messages. Like "the guy behind you knows more about you than you think" sort of stuff. Or maybe the most simple, paranoid one... "you are going to die." Would be funny to see their reactions.

The best one I've gotten said "you will recieve a fortune (cookie)".
On topic, I say go for it. Sometimes signs come from weird places. What do you have to lose? I say, throw caution to the wind and carpe diem and all that. BTW, any specific details on the scenario? |

The last one I got (I LOVE Chinese food!) makes no sense. I saved it, here it is:
"You will make many changes before setting satisfactorily" Setting WHAT satisfactorily? The temp in my truck? Seat position? TV station? Throw me a bone here, oh great god of fortunes!!!! Gilly PS "That wasn't chicken", haw haw haw LOLOLOL!!

I was disturbed because I had to fire an employee for unsatisfactory performance. That evening my wife and I ate at a Chinese restaurant. My forutne cookie said: "One man's onion is anothers' water lilly". A few weeks later I heard the guy found another job for more money and better position.

If I opened a fortune cookie factory, each cookie's message would say, "Go ahead and have another cookie." Some people would actually go ahead a follow the message, and I'd be rich!

Just at the phrase "in bed" to the end of each fortune and things often become more interesting............

"You will make many changes before setting satisfactorily IN BED ".
Kinda makes me sound like some sorta "swinger" or something. BUT you're right, definitely adds a little "human interest" to the fortune.

Is that like "man who stand on toilet is high on pot"?

I recall reading an essay by an anthropologist years ago. He was studying a group of people who used some kind of divining mechanism to make decisions. It was totally irrational compared to our standard 'rational' decisionmaking procedures. He (perhaps it was Pritchard-Owens) decided to give the divining method a try. His conclusion was that the outcomes were no better or worse than his standard 'rational' procedures.
Based on that, I say follow the fortune cookie. (Unless it said kill your firstborn or something like that)
