We went to a Chinese restaurant and I got the following forune in a cookie:
“You may attend a party where strange customs prevail.”
Seems portentious somehow. I wonder if it’s about these Chiff gatherings I’ve been to or hosted.

I wonder if it’s related to one that my brother got once,
“You will have new clothes soon.”
I got one once which said, “You are hard to ignore.”
I kid you not.
I never knew what to make of it. Compliment? Insult? I still don’t know… 
Mine said:
The night life is for you.
Another said:
He likes to flirt but with you his intentions are serious.
oh oh.
I usually get ones that say things like “silence is golden” or other parables. They’re not even fortunes anymore these days.
But, I kid you not, last time I had chinese, everyone got parables but me…mine said “You will soon come into contact with extraterrestrial life.”. Bizarre!
Ummm… you didn’t … eat it … did you?
Aren’t they supposed to make that noise when you bite into them?
Possibly the most non-fortune ever, . . .
“You will inherit a sum of money or a piece of land.”
That speaks for most people in the world. And it’s something that I’m sure everyone is already aware of. What is the point of it being in a fortune cookie?
I recently cracked one open and found:
“You are a deep thinking person.”… what a laugh! Everybody knows I am incapable of deep thought.
I know, I know… 42.
The one that made my jaw drop: “A girlfriend is a bottle of wine, a wife is a wine bottle.”
I had that one tacked to a cork board for years, but nobody had any idea what it was supposed to mean.
don’t forget - you are supposed to add the words “…in bed” to the end of those!!! 
I had one last week (I eat Chinese often; there’s a great little family owned hole-in-the-wall within walking distance of my house. If anyone ever comes out this way, you’ll have to let me take you there) that said “You are a very lucky person; you keep getting lucky.”
No joke whatsoever.
Someone once pointed out to me that almost every fortune makes logical sense and is highly entertaining if you add the phrase “in bed” to the end of the sentence. It’s good for a lot of laughs.
Whoops!!! Sorry, I guess I should read the whole thread before posting! 
The company I work for makes a product called “Scorpion”.
Another company, a larger player in the market, makes a
competing product called “Tiger”. Once a coworker got a
fortune that said, If size is all, why does Tiger fear Scorpion?
He taped it to his door, because it is obviously portentious.
I had a fortune cookie once. Can’t remember what it said but I remember I didn’t like the taste. I even had to ask if you were really supposed to eat them. Since then I have remained steadfastly unfortunate.
I watched a stand-up routine once where the guy was going on about the minds who creat fortune cookie slips.
He mused:
"What if they got bored? You might find something like.
‘Confucious say
You are about to embark on a solo journey to the moon and stay there for an extended period of time!’
haha he won’t know whether to sh*t or eat apple!"
It was funnier live. 
We were discussing writing fortunes at a Chinese restaurant one evening. Creepy ones like: “The person across the table intends to kill you” and “Your food is poisoned.” “You will not live to see the sun rise.” “You will choke to death on a fortune cookie.” Things like that. It got pretty twisted.
