Default Fortune Cookie Bet PART 2

Sry hate to do this but I accidently made the polls end at 12:01 today instead of tomorrow. Since there is $500 beans on the line, I'm going to restart the poll, at its finish I'll at the +1 point to number 2.

Here is the original post:

Just made a $500 bet on who got the better fortune cookie. We made this bet prior to opening the cookies. We are going to decide based on a poll here on the great 2P2.

For idiots choosing 2, 1 gives hope for an answer. 2 tells you to reflect on your now bigger problem. wtf

For you idiots choosing 1, who cares what type of answer it gives, are you really are going to think of this as a fortune?

The question "Which fortune cookie is better" (which is pretty vague), not "Which fortune is better".

2 is such a weird fortune that it is much better than the standard answer you get in 1.

I don't even think those are sentences, but I think I understand what you're trying to say and you're either retarded or very close.

Number 1 is a boring cliche, while number 2 is delightfully weird and has that nice extra comma which just points out that it was written by a poorly paid Chinese guy, which is really what you're looking for in a fortune cookie.

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.
