“Success and wealth will come your way” and “Friends long absent are coming back to you” are all well and good, but I would like to open a fortune cookie and find:
Honestly, I’d like to see actual fortunes again. These days I get stuff like, “True friends are worth more than gold” or “You are known for your spotless linoleum floor.” That’s not a fortune. I want to be told what’s going to happen in my future, dammit. Is that too much to ask?
I also want vaguely disturbing fortunes, like:
“They all know about you.”
“What if it’s all a lie?”
“We’d be watching you if you were worth the trouble.”
When I was 13, I got a fortune cookie that said “You better go home”. My parents and I laughed about it until we got home and found out that we had been robbed.
It was quite a few years before I cracked open another one of those things…
I now ritualistically read out loud “You will die in a firey car crash”, regardless of what is actually written on the paper. I have no clue why…
Your mileage may vary.
