Worst. Fortune. Ever. I guess nowadays all fortune cookies give you a fortune and 1 of 2 things on the back: lucky numbers or "learn Chinese". Well today I got a "learn Chinese" and it taught me: September - Jiu-yue.
WTF? How useless can you get? When will this come up in conversation? Why not teach my something like 'name' or 'hello' or 'pleased to meet you' or 'are you single?' No, I always get the 'September', the 'grandfather' or the 'rooster'. Yea because the first thing I'm going to do when I meet a Chinese person is ask them how their grandfather is doing or if roosters are in season in September. Maybe just stick with the lucky numbers.
Oh and my fortune was pretty useless too. 'We write our own destiny. We become what we do'. WTF?? I wanted a fortune dammit! Fortunes imply fate or luck. Not 'we determine what happens' reality sh*t. What's the fuggin point of giving me a fortune then? Retards!
