have you ever noticed that fortune cookie fortunes rarely if ever are either the least bit applicable or true...
so im sitting at home thinking how good somthing sweet would go with my belly...
well, i think ive figured out the secret to getting accurate and applicable fortunes...
id had a really really beyond crappy nite and was in one of my worse moods...
i felt helpless and needed some good advice, but, being two oclock in the morning couldnt exactly call anyone up...
then it hit me...
id bought a box of vegan fortune cookies during my last shopping excursion...
perfect... prophecy, sweetness and cookies all rolled into one little package...
so i go grab the box and get to thinking...
hmmm... 1 fortune cookie isnt nearly enough sugar to quell this foul mood... i guess ill just have to eat the whole damn box...
noow, before you start judging my waistline keep in mind that a whole box of fortune cookies really doesnt contain that many... and i am really bad about sweets and tend to take the 5 year old approach and eat them til my stomach gets upset...
regardless, i sit down to watch some cheasy horror movie and crack open the first cookie...
to my utter amazement, the fortune is completely relavent to my current situation...
i much the cookie and think about confuscious and how he never had anything to do with the nugget of truth typed on the little scrap of paper i hold between my crumb coated fingers...
i crack open the next cookie and fins a somewhat vague, but still applicable fortune...
this continues til i finish the box...
i got several repeats, but the way i see it this just proves that this method works more...
there can only be so many fortunes that the machine types which are applicable to my situation, so of course i will get repeats...
so ive finally figured out how to properly use fortune cookies to the fullest of their prophetic potential...
first, one must be in durress over a certain situation...
next one must be able to stomach large quantities of sweetness in the form of sugarry cookies...
third, one must sit down with the intention of eating the entire box/bag of cookies...
and finally, one must expect for the fortunes to be mildly repetitive if the machine doesnt have enough which are aplicable to your situation to put a different one in every cookie...
there you have it, divination at its finest...
