A) "The cure for grief is motion."
Well.. yes, but that is easier said than done for many..
B) "You are thinking about doing something. Don't do it, it won't help anything."
Um.... I think my cookie is defective...
C) "Meet your opponent half way. You need the exercise."
E-excuse me...? [ WOW. Just. WOW her cookie is RUDE today. ]
D) "Keep it simple. The more you say, the less people remember."
... that's.. a little more difficult to do for me, I'm afraid...I should work on that, I suppose. [ ...but still, she feels unnecessarily called out..by a cookie. ]
E) [ Break your own dang cookie!... I'm sorry that was rude ]

1. "Hard work pays off in the future, laziness pays off now."
I feel like this confirms that I shouldn't have bothered with putting pants on today.
2. "Eat something you never tried before."
Honestly that's a lot more direct than what I was expecting.
3. "You have a fine capacity for the enjoyment of life."
Thanks, cookie. I think so too.
4. "A feeling is an idea with roots."
What does that even mean?

I AM right! It's NOT a sin!
2: "Every day is a new day. But tomorrow is never promised."
I don't need a reminder...

1) "It is much easier to look for the bad, than it is to find the good"
Right. Because there's more bad than good.
2) "The cure for grief is motion."
These cookies are kind of preachy.
3) "Men do not fail... they give up trying."
Okay look-

Okay look-
They say you should add "In bed" to the end of fortune cookies but I think it's funnier if you add "but not in bed" to them!
1) "Happiness comes from a good life."
But not in bed!
2) "Your skill will accomplish what the force of many cannot."
But not in- look you get the idea
3) "Your father still loves and is in always with you. Remember that."
...maybe not this one.

1. Do what you want, when you want, and you will be rewarded.
Yeah, with what? Massive debt? Jail time? Diabetes because I'm eating all the carbs I see?
2. Back away from individuals who are impulsive.
Are you kidding? They're my primary source of entertainment.
3. Not all closed eye is sleeping, nor open eye is seeing.
Closed eyes might mean a person is dead. But then, so can open eyes. Maybe I'm too morbid for this one.
4. You are not illiterate.
[She nudges you in the side, looking vaguely confused as she points to her fortune.] What does this say?
5. Bring your own!

1. "Two small jumps are sometimes better than one big leap."
... I guess that's true if you're not very good at jumping.
Or whatever else jumping stands for here.
2. "The eyes believe themselves; the ears believe other people."
Not a thought I can say I ever had, but now that I think about it... maybe that's how it is.
3. "Lend your money and lose your friend."
See, I knew it's a good idea to not let myself get indebted to others!

1. "The time is right to make new friends." [ Yamada says this aloud, at a volume deliberately high enough someone on the table behind him can hear. He twists in his chair, sitting backwards and kicks off the ground to hop it over to their table. ] Hi. I'm Yamada.
2. "You will kiss your crush ohhh lalahh."
[ Yamada looks over the slip of paper and makes eye contact, then waggles his eyebrows. ]
3. "A new wardrobe brings great joy and change to your life." Is that what I've been missing by being naked for 20 years?
4. "You are often asked if it is in yet."
...Uh. That hurts, cookie.

[he looks up in time to flinch when someone suddenly joins him at his table. Keiwa's own cookie sits next to his untouched plate of fried rice and gyoza]
I'm... Keiwa. [the start is a little dubious, but Keiwa's naturally friendly personality wins out in the end] Nice to meet you, Yamada-san.
Have you tried the gyoza?

4. Your true love will show himself to you under the moonlight. - Well, he can't stay long. I have to be up by 6:45 am.

1) "A routine task will turn into an enchanting adventure."
Please don't, I'm sick and tired of life-changing experiences and adventures. I just want a boring week in my life.
2) "Forget injuries; never forget kindnesses."
Kinda hard to forget the several concussions at this point. But I do forget things on occasion. These two facts are related, I'm sure.

Uh-huh, have you ever dealt with 15 years old? I bet not.
4) " If you eat something and nobody sees you eat it, it has no calories."
