The fortune cookie that will change my life.

[Rain Man]

I ordered Chinese food today. I love Chinese food, or at least the American version of Chinese food that's nonetheless made by Chinese people who no doubt feel very conflicted and hypocritical about their role in faking their own cuisine.

But back to the topic. I had my usual, and this time I also tried some baked mussel appetizers that my wife and I both agreed were quite tasty. And at the end, in the bottom of the grocery sack, we found our two fortune cookies. We split them up and opened them. And mine said...

Are you ready for this? Because it might change your life, too.

Mine said...

"Fate loves the fearless."

Yes. YES! Fate does indeed love the fearless.

That fortune grabbed me by the scruff off the neck and shook me around like I was a golden retriever's chew toy.

I'm too comfortable. I take things too easy. I need to get out, stretch myself, try some new things. And by golly, I'm going to do it. I'm going to try new foods, listen to new music. I'm going to travel more, and maybe hop a tramp freighter to China. I'm going to do it.

That fortune cookie was no accident.

I think I've seen this movie.

[Dartgod]

Are you sure that wasn't just the title of the next Fast and Furious movie?

[Rain Man]

I'm putting together a plan now.

[MVChiefFan]

But, in reality, the fearless love fate... think about that.

[pugsnotdrugs19]

That crab rangoon is some tasty stuff. Hard to beat orange and cashew chicken.

[JD10367]

Fate loves the fearless.

PIIHB.

[Baby Lee]

Yeah, but is fate IN love with the fearless?

[highBOLTage]

Dr. Pepper with breakfast!!!!

Drink water. Change your life.

Made Chinese a couple of weeks ago and I always buy a bag of fortune cookies to go along with that meal.

This time every single cookie in the bag had the fortune "If you think you can, you will".

Seemed a little fishy to me, almost like fortune cookies aren't real.

Did you eat and finish the cookie before reading the fortune?

[Chiefshrink]

and why you will continue to trust in Andy and Bob !!!:D

[Rain Man]

Did you eat and finish the cookie before reading the fortune?

I usually don't eat the cookie. I just read the fortune. But this time I ate the cookie.

[Rain Man]

Sorry about breaking the thread. I'd fix it if I could.

I would have charged forward even if the thread had not been fixed, so no harm.

I hold my destiny in my hands, and I will squeeze the juice from it like it's a tangerine.

Fate Loves the Fearless! is exactly what Custer yelled out to his troops as they charged into the Sioux encampment...

[Kman34]

Your wife’s said ... “Be prepared for your husband to blow a bunch of money on his mid-life crisis...”

[Chiefshrink]

Drink water. Change your life.

TRUTH !!!

[Chiefshrink]

Fate Loves the Fearless! is exactly what Custer yelled out to his troops as they charged into the Sioux encampment...

while laying back a long time watching a portion of his army get obliterated before finally responding. At the same time refusing to use Winchester repeaters going with the single shot Springfield carbine rifles instead while many of the Sioux had the Winchester repeaters outnumbering the 7th many times over to boot. Go figure.

Custer's ego and his cowardice got them all killed for sure. But that's a whole another discussion.;)

Heh, yeah I was just joking about his exhortation to the troops

I own the definitive book on Little Bighorn called 'Son of the Morning Star', even got to visit that site as a boy of 8-9... even at that young age, I could feel the weight of that place

[Chiefshrink]

Heh, yeah I was just joking about his exhortation to the troops

Oh I know, but it brought up the whole history thing and I love American History.

How Cool. Have yet to read that definitive book but saw a real fascinating documentary on the History Channel before they went all "american pickers":rolleyes: where they did actual archeology on the site and actually dug up puddles of spent carbine cartridges actually showing the placement of the troops. Maybe you saw it as well?

I've seriously thought about making a fortune cookie company full of negative, funny, and goofy fortunes. The existing ones are too boring and not direct enough.

I want one that says "You will get hit by a car Thursday."

[T-post Tom]

Lahkesis, Atropos, and Clotho approve this thread.

[Rain Man]

Custer's problem was not that he was too fearless, but rather he was not fearless enough.

Those would not be real fortune cookies, though. Real fortune cookies fuel our destiny.

Custer was a cocky moron who said any company of US troops (100-150 men) could whip the whole Sioux nation

That Chinese food has poisoned your mind with hormone and paint chip fed meat :D

[ClevelandBronco]

Double marathon

[Rain Man]

Double marathon

I may have to cut out Dr. Pepper for that. But I can do it. I'm fearless.

I hope your next fortune cookie says, "Don't eat REAL Chinese food." I had a Chinese colleague that talked about what he ate growing up. I thought Bizarre Foods on the Travel Channel covered all angles, but no.

[Dave Lane]

This actually has great meaning to me today . Thanks.

After every fortune cookie add “in bed”.

A little something my awesome grandpa showed me.

"Fate loves the fearless."

Yes. YES! Fate does indeed love the fearless.

Sometimes you have to say "To hell with it, I'll clean my carpets next week..."

[Kyle DeLexus]

If you were fearless and tried new food, you would not have gotten that fortune.
