Fortune Cookie of the Day.
  •   3 comments
That's nice. Whenever I get a fortune cookie it always gives me an ad for some stupid cryptocurrency exchange.
s  
You know, I only learnt about fortune cookies from US cartoons. If we have them here, I ain't seen 'em.
s - Where you find there in the U.S. is at Chinese restaurants. They give them to you with your bill for your meal. There may be other Asian restaurants that do this, as well. They are crunchy with a bit of vanilla/almond flavor.

You break them open and there is a little strip of paper inside with your "fortune". It used to be they would sound a bit predictive, like "you will come into a large sum of money soon" type of thing. Any more they are more like vague affirmations.

Sometimes there will be lucky numbers on the back, or "learn Chinese" with some Chinese characters and the translation. I suppose that is so you have some numbers to play in the lottery or some cool Chinese characters to use as a tattoo, lol

Thanks.

How do you create a link to someone's Portfolio? It's her birthday and I would like people to wish her a Happy Birthday. She is new to WDc with few friends.

Hey, there! The simplest way to "show her off" is to just tag her here like this: {huser:abcdefghi}. Replace the abcdefghi with her username, and you're set!
