Chinese Fortune Cookies

Chinese fortune cookies are globally famous for their messages predicting the future – some messages are incredibly touching, while others are of absolute no use. This entry focuses on those pointless Chinese fortune cookie messages which reveal absolutely nothing.


Matter-of-factly written – makes Chinese food seem better health-wise then what it actually is – it is more of an advertisement than a fortune


Rather dramatic – though I can’t quite understand what a German proverb does in a Chinese fortune cookie



Straight-forward and, I must say, rather insulting




Utterly disappointing and pointless  




Too mysterious for my taste





Completely hermetic and meaningless



This fortune message states the obvious – why would you ever listen with your eyes in the first place?

  

Rather useless – why would one want to smell the inside of a hat? 



Emm… random and slightly off topic




I hope you enjoyed reading these failed fortune cookie messages – should you want to read more messages, here is the link to a fortune cookie game, which tells you your luck after you click on the cookie – you can try it out as many times as you desire - http://www.primarygames.com/holidays/chinese/games/fortune_cookie/cookie.htm
To rap up, here is a fortune cookie which particularly fits in with this entry
