Fortune Torture

Is it me, or have fortunes changed? No, not like, "life sucks, gas prices are killing me, my girlfriend gave me the..." Whoops, that's another blog all together.

Seriously, fortune cookies. Shelly and I have laughed about fortune cookies for at least a year now. Used to, at least as I remember it, fortune cookies had some goofy little notion for your future. Lately it seems like they are either marketing more Chinese food or giving some stupid life affirming statement.

Case in point: earlier tonight I received a fortune cookie wishing me this wonderful fortune, "May you have a good appetite." Wow, knock my socks off, I just ordered the General Tso's Chicken, I think my appetite is sufficient.

Another good one Shelly got a while back. I can't remember it exactly, but I remember it said something about 'you have great garace'. Yes, it was even misspelled. Listen, besides the fact this is no fortune at all and shows an overt lack of editing, we all know my lovely wife and if it weren't for the grace of God she'd have no grace at all. (Don't worry, I know I'll pay for that one later.)

So now I suppose you feel like the principal from Billy Madison and want to say that we are all dumber from having read this. You're right, but aren't those some cute kids in the other post?
