My family has a tradition when we go to a Chinese Restaurant. We all take turns reading our fortunes, and the one with the lamest fortune, wins. So far I’m the Grand Champion.
That fortune seems to be inappropriate for Monday. As Monday is often seen as the worst day of the week, it usually gets better over time. Perhaps, this is the new normal.
The Mandarin : A true story about fortune cookies. They look Chinese. They sound… Chinese. But they’re actually an American invention. Which is why they’re hollow, full of lies, and leave a bad taste in the mouth.
One day, many eons hence, the Sun will expand and engulf the Earth, reducing it and everything on it to superheated plasma. Possibly not the worst thing that can possibly happen, but certainly not something I would want to witness first hand.

Wouldn’t it be funny if a pie popped out of the box and hit Garfield in the face and the fortune read “you will receive your just desserts”.

Sorry Garfield, but, Mondays are doomed for you, with or without, your fortune cookie.

I got a doozie once, “You’re ugly and your children are stupid!” I put that one on my bulletin board at work. Still makes me chuckle.

Let’s see…Monday’s are bad for Garfield because it is the start of a work week? NO -that can’t be it…

Garfield’s still got it. This one is good, but I wish he would rekindle his hatred for Mondays a bit more often.

Anyone reminded of “Rocko’s Modern Life” when Filburt got that fortune cookie at that Chinese restaurant?

I’m actually working on a Sparta Remix with Garfield saying “I Hate Mondays”.

I once heard about a fortune cookie that prophesied “You will never amount to anything.”

Fortune cookies don’t have fortunes anymore. Someone must have gotten a bad fortune that devastated them and they sued the cookie company!!!

Monday, Monday (bah-da bah-da-da-da)
So good to me (bah-da bah-da-da-da)
Monday mornin’, it was all I hoped it would be
Oh Monday mornin’, Monday mornin’ couldn’t guarantee (bah-da bah-da-da-da)
That Monday evenin’ you would still be here with me
Monday, Monday, can’t trust that day
Monday, Monday, sometimes it just turns out that way
Oh Monday mornin’ you gave me no warnin’ of what was to be
Oh Monday, Monday, how could you leave and not take me
Every other day, every other day
Every other day, every other day of the week is fine, yeah
But whenever Monday comes, but whenever Monday comes
But whenever Monday comes, you can find me cryin’ all of the time

“The laziness is too good to resist on Mondays,” replies Garfield’s fortune with a smiley face on the back. #fortunecookie ☺

In bed!
A couple of weeks ago I had Chinese with some ex-colleagues – should I be worried that both my cookie, and one given to me by one of them, were empty?
Especially since it was my birthday?
