Fortune Cookie Fortune: Need a translation

I received the following mysterious fortune in a fortune cookie recently, I wonder if anyone can hazard an English translation?


“After readying the every emotion, I see some understanding peer entering realm.”

sounds a lot like www.engrish.com to me. :smiley:

To fully appreciate the fortune cookie you must append the phrase,
“…in bed.”
after every reading.

:laughing: :laughing:

lots of new engrish stuff, check it out. :smiley:

another useful addage to the fortune cookie phrase (besides the one Fly told) is"

“…without pants.”

It hasn’t escaped your notice, MarMil, that a slip of paper is claiming to have the gift of eyesight? I hope you kept that thing, it would seem that it should be examined more closely.

Hmmmmm, I think that you are going to have a very notorious and public affair that will make the papers in the UK scream with delight and wild headlines, can I be your agent?

Quite. I was under the impression the fortune was predicting the accession of Prince Charles to the throne, after checking that the majority of the UK population weren’t averse to the idea. I was thinking foresight, not eyesight.

Yes, I still have it, it’s my souvenir of a fun evening spent on Long Island playing miniature golf & go-karting.

After readying the every emotion, I see some understanding peer entering realm.

Babel Fish (English to Japanese):

あらゆる感情を用意した後、私は理解の同等者の入る王国を見る。

Babel Fish (Japanese to English)

After preparing all feelings, I look at the kingdom where the equal person of understanding enters.

Is that clearer? :smiley:

OHHHHH - that’s IT!!! Now, is it haunted, or does it have a grease stain that looks like Jesus’ face on it?

Was it from a Japanese or Chinese fortune cookie, or what? Translating it into and back from Chinese (bablefish again), we get:

In prepares after each emotion, I looked some understanding the of the same generation enters territory.

Seems to mean about the same thing, if indeed it means anything.

To and from Spanish:

After listing the each emotion, I see a certain kingdom that enters of the pair that understands.

To and from Greek:

After I expect the each emotion, I see somebody understanding Lord ball.

This is fun.

To and from Korean:

After preparing each emotion, I the what kind of gain and loss colleague see the territory where it enters.

To and from Italian:

After to have waited for the every emotion, I see a sure reign entering understanding of the par.

To and from Russian:

To afterward prepare each emotion, I see certain understanding realm peer entering in.

French to Dutch to English:

After the preparation of each tenderising, to see I a certain kingdom that of couple of regulation enter.

Hee hee! Well, you did ask for translation!

Cheers!

This is true.

I got one that said something to the effect of, “A person who sees you looks for the beauties to be found elsewhere.” Interesting :really:. I put it up by my lab bench at work.

So this isn’t some silly thing my hubby made up… other people across the country do this fortune cookie rewrite to! It does make for some… interesting fortunes, just make sure that your mouth is free of food and drink before reading. snort, choke

This doesn’t seem to help Martin’s bizzare fortune much though.

The only worthwhile fortune cookie thingum I ever got read, “Look ahead and see the end from the beginning.” Good advice.

The two best I ever got: one said, “You would make a good lawyer.” I went to the proprietress and as a joke told her I didn’t like the “fortune”, and the poor thing thought I was serious and offered me a new cookie. I kept trying to reassure her that it was all a joke; you know, the eternal bash-the-lawyer thing, but she didn’t seem to get it somehow. I’ll never pull that stunt again.

The other was blank. That was too cool.

Why didn’t you try the lemon juice trick from National Treasure?
You’ve probably blown your shot at a Ming Dynasty jackpot of valuables!

In my neighborhood the children know me as the “fortune cookie man”. I have a habit of walking around a church parking lot that is near my home. A young boy asked my why I was always walking around the parking lot. I’m sure he thought, “Don’t you have anything better to do?” I replied that the fortune cookie that I got at the Chinese buffet (aren’t they great?) advised me to walk in circles behind a church. He believed me, so now I am the fortune cookie man. The children giggle and point their fingers at me. I smile.

And their parents probably are keeping their eyes on you! :laughing: (But the kids will always remember you, years from now.)
