FORTUNE COOKIES!!!!!!

Uninvited credit goes to [livejournal.com profile] djmayhem_aubrey for this one: ;)

What is/are the most memorable fortune cookie(s) you've ever gotten? Funniest? Most profound? Most un-fortune-cookie-ish? Where were you and who were you with?

*evil evil mind of evil is now working* Has anyone ever offered a line of fortune cookie tags/icons? If so, how'd it go over?

Almost any fortune cookie is hilarious when adding the phrase "in bed" to the end of it xD

I think I just adopted a new fortune cookie philosophy thanks to this comment.

On our last day of school last week my grade was given fortune cookies from our year advisor. We all got one! YAY! Anyway, mine went along like this: You don't marry someone you can live with; you marry the person with whom you can't live without. Awwwww! And that is my lame fortune cookie story! XP

I've never had a weird one.
My most memorable fortune cookie experience was definitely when I was at China Town in San Fran with my orchestra friends, and one of the girls I was with got a fortune cookie that 'freaked her out.' She was so freaked she didn't let anyone but ONE other person read it (was not me, pfff). I forget what it was (I think she told us later, like at the end of the trip? My memory is failing, lol) buuut it was just... odd. I remember finding out the fortune and being totally disappointed. Worst story evar! Lol.

The oddest fortune cookie I ever received said: "Someone can read your mind."

The funny thing is, about twenty minutes later, my friend called and just for kicks, I asked him to guess what I was thinking of. And guess what happened? He guessed correctly, haha. XD

"Ignore meaningless messages."

Obviously, I did not listen, and I showed it to everybody.

I have a rather odd fortune cookie story. While dining with my in-laws, we received the following set of fortunes, all at the same meal.

Father: You will be visiting a warm & happy place.
Mother: An exciting, new romance is in your future.
Daughter: You will receive a present of money and jewelry.
Son: You will soon receive an unexpected financial windfall.

I don't remember exactly what mine said, but it fit in pretty well too. D:

Thank goodness the fortunes didn't turn out to be true, but you can bet we were extra careful on the way home.

I have a fortune tapped inside my wallet. It says:

A faithful friend is a strong defence.

It was very fitting to me as I play defence (in hockey).

This comic (http://archive.leasticoulddo.com/strips/20091006.gif) literally showed up on my f-list not 5 posts after this one. XD

But to actually answer the question, my favorite was actually NOT mine. My friend Nora and her boyfriend got Chinese food and came to meet me and other friends at lunch in the courtyard one time during high school - her fortune cookie said "You and your wife will be very happy together". I died. XD

First off - HEE, YAY, I INSPIRED A (good) POST! =D

Secondly, for those not on my flist (this is the only fortune I can remember getting right now, obviously others just aren't as memorable), I got a fortune at dinner last night that said, 'To be loved, be lovable.' It's definitely advice I've always TRIED to live by in the first place, and it just made me grin because I've gone through some insecurity with this community lately (for anyone who doesn't understand what I mean, you probably don't want to know) on whether or not I AM liked.

...

And YES, it is important to me if people like me. =) <3

LOL well, this was my Dad's fortune cookie, but does anyone remember hurricane Ike from last year? It hit the Texas coast, blew over Houston, and completely devastated Galveston and the Bolivar peninsula, as well as left millions in Houston without electricy for up to a month (it took me personally about a week to get power back; it suuuucked you guys. Being in a hurricane suuuucks. The eye passed right over us).

Anyway, a month before the hurricane hit, my dad just so happened to open a fortune cookie that said "The winds of change will visit you soon."

Hurr hurr. Dad doesn't open fortune cookies anymore. XD

Along the line of the "in my pants" game, the best fortune my friend found to go with that was "You are attracted to things with an exotic flavor" "...in your pants."

So wrong.

This wasn't my fortune cookie but it involved me so it was awesome. Me and my boyfriend were sitting next to eachother eating chinese food. He opened his fortune cookie and it said "You can stop looking. Happiness is right next to you." I just thought that was great. :D

My boyfriend and I got fortune cookies. When he broke his open, it read: "Opportunity is right in front of you."

We aww'ed over how sweet it was, then I broke open mine: "Our first and last love: self love."

Once I got a fortune cookie that said "Someone is watching you."

And when we turned around, there was a creepy old man staring at me. Never been so freaked out in my life.

I got a fortune cookie from one of my college's food kiosks that said "You and your wife will be very happy in your life together". (I'm bi) So that was quite amusing!

On one of my first dates with my (now) husband, I got a fortune that read: "you will find love in strange places". We still have it on our bulletin board. I love it!

The most un-fortune cookie I got had no fortune on it.
That's right, the little paper was blank.

Not encouraging let me tell you.

The Chinese food place by my work doesn't put proper fortunes in the fortune cookies -- just adverts to buy more food :(
