Fortune Cookies.
Is there more fun in eating those cookies
or reading that much anticipated fortune?
Is there more fun in believing in the paper,
or mocking every cryptic word it says?
Is there more fun in opening just a couple more,
or eating one, content with what's been foretold?
Is there more fun in expecting the predicted,
or letting life go, it will come when it will come?
Is there more fun in sharing all the fortunes,
or keeping each strip of paper to one's one self?
Is there more fun in watching other's reactions,
or worrying about your own surprised face?
Is there more fun in reading and writing about fortune cookies,
or opening and cracking them and then eating them one by one?

Fortune cookies always make me smile. I imagine there's someone, somewhere, who sits at a desk al day and comes up with these funny little sayings.
They're usually positive, witty, or encouraging sayings. However, my dad once got one that read:
"Idleness is the fool's vacation."
He looked at it for a while, then said, "I want a new one."
