Default Re: Fortune Cookie Bet PART 2

for my fortune cookie I want it to actually tell something about the future.

Observations or philosophies should NOT be in fortune-cookies. They should be in Observation-Cookies as far as I'm concerned.

"You will come to an important crossroads in your life very soon" counts as a fortune.

"The wise man always looks before crossing the street" or "You are more wise when you are less stupid" are Observation-Cookies and totally suck.

In the 2 from the OP, the first one tells something about the future and the 2nd one tells something about the past.
Therefore I voted for the first one because it's more like what an actual fortune should be to my mind.
