Words of Wisdom...

Let's see what wisdom the cookie holds for us today!:

The greatest truths are the simplest and so are the greatest men.

Clearly the cookie writers never met my exhusband.

Words of Wisdom...

I could really use some good news, like a cookie that says 'play these lucky numbers, guaranteed to win!' or something:

The only thing we know for sure about future developments is that they will develop.

*rolls eyes* Well that's not exactly very helpful. *grumbles* Not playing the lucky numbers from this cookie, I can tell ya that. *harumphs* :P

Words of Wisdom...

My brother and I have been working out more and stuff, ostensibly to be healthier, but I think it's more because he wants to look sexy in a suit again or something and he's just viciously dragging me along for the ride (it's boring to exercise alone or something).

A man who trims himself to suit everybody will soon whittle himself away.

*blinks* !! I should maybe tell him the cookies say he should worry more about himself than what others think?

Words of Wisdom...

At times I get a little worried about what might come out of the cookie...:

Joy is the feeling of grinning on the inside.

... doesn't that also qualify as psychosis sometimes? *o.O*

Words of Wisdom...

Sometimes the cookies are pretty smart:

The greatest wisdom is seeing through appearances.

Case in point. *smiles*

Words of Wisdom...

I think the cookies mock me sometimes:

Courtesy is one of the best peacemakers.

HA!!! No it's not, sometimes trying to be courteous actually causes more problems, not less. Trust me, I know what I'm talking about (but I'll be nice and won't share, just in case certain peoples are reading along and figure out I was referring to them, cuz that might be bad for my bottom...)

Words of Wisdom...

*cracks open the cookie* Let's see what it has in store for me this week....

You are about to begin a prosperous business venture.

o.O! ... really? Nifty!! ^.^

Words of Wisdom...

*sobs* Even the cookies are against me sometimes!:

Every person is the architect of his own fortune.

.... this is why people think we all need to take evil mathness I bet, someone saw this fortune ages ago and decided "well, if we're all architects, we better all be good at math!" .... *mutters and plots*

Words of Wisdom...

Sometimes I worry that the 'advice' the cookies give might be hazardous to my health... :

To make the cart go, you must grease the wheels.

... *nose twitches* ... Right, so wonder-klutz (moi) can then kill herself going near any kind of incline (even a mild one). *nods*

Words of Wisdom...

My favourite cookies are the ones that have a good message but aren't written fabulously:

The one who would be constant in happiness must frequently change.

See? How can you not love that and giggle?

Words of Wisdom...

Have you ever wondered if the writers of fortune cookies get freaked out by all the "wisdom" and stuff they have to deal with all the time?

Don't worry about the world coming to an end. It's already tomorrow in Australia.

*blinks* .... I'm betting this one means one of the writers had a severe freak out "the world's gonna end man! It's gonna END!!!" *insert sound of other writer bitchslapping him* "Pull yourself together man! The world isn't going to end!" ... why are you looking at me like that?

Words of Wisdom...

I sometimes worry that my fortune cookies are going to moralize... or worse, talk as if they're in some sort of "relationship" with me or something:

They cannot take away our self-respect if we do not give it to them.

OHmigod! The cookies are stalking me!

Words of Wisdom...

So let's see what mr. fortune cookie has for me today!:

Your troubles will soon cease and good fortune will smile upon you.

So either I'm about to come into all sorts of money (did I even have an old uncle Harold?) or I'm going to find out I don't actually need to take math after all! *blinks* Ooooh that'd be lovely...

Words of Wisdom...

I bet this is another 'joke' cookie:

Appearances can be deceiving, but you're not fooling anyone.

... that or they really ARE stalking me!

Words of Wisdom...

Someone snuck in one of those "naughty joke" cookies I think:

You have the ability to touch many people ... in bed.

... course, that doesn't detract from how true it is. :P

Words of Wisdom...

*whispers in awe* How does it KNOW these things?!?:

You are about to begin a prosperous business venture.

... they're stalking me aren't they?

Words of Wisdom...

And now for our weekly dose of Fortune Cookie goodness!!:

Some people dream of worthy accomplishments while others stay awake and do them.

Ooooh, that was kind of a mean cookie wasn't it?

Words of Wisdom...

Once in a while I'm pretty sure I actually am getting 'messages' in my cookies. *nods sagely*

Your talents will be recognized and suitably rewarded.

So where's my recognition and rewards already? Haven't I beaten enough people yet? I can beat more if I need to, honest! :D

Words of Wisdom...

There is wisdom to be found within the golden cookies...

In the province of the mind, what one believes to be true either is true or becomes true.

Right... so.... I believe that a wealthy prince is going to knock on my door and declare his undying love and insist we get married immediately so that he can lavish enormous jewels upon me. *taps toe waiting* .. well c'mon, start aknockin!

Words of Wisdom...

*sings to herself about fortune cookie writers and the lives they probably lead*

A real patriot is the fellow who gets a parking ticket and rejoices that the system works.

... only in a fantasy world, which probably explains my earlier singing! *grins*
