Read an online fortune cookie


get a free online fortune cookie

Welcome to the home of my free online fortune cookie. Please read a random fortune cookie whenever you want. The list of fortunes grows as new ones come to mind. I add new ones all the time.

As you read the fortunes you'll see a bit of me poking through. Each is a tiny glimpse of what goes through my twisted little mind. A mini-Rorschach test.

I created a fortune cookie Google gadget too. These are not the (stale) fortune cookies you get at a your local Chinese restaurant. I wrote each and every one of them, and there's no way you've read them any of them before.



Reload this page in order to read another fortune cookie. See, how can you refuse a fortune cookie? (People read fortune cookies whether they eat them or not.) Aren't you tempted to add "...in bed" to the end of any fortune you read outloud? Try adding "dot com" to the end.

Embed a fortune cookie Google gadget to your web site or blog by using this code:

<script src="http://gmodules.com/ig/ifr?url=http://www.jetcityorange.com/
fortune_cookie/fortune_cookie.xml&synd=open&w=324&h=100&title=JetCityOrange
+fortune+cookie&border=%23ffffff%7C3px%2C1px+solid+%23999999&output=js">

Or put a fortune cookie message in your web pages by copying and pasting this HTML code:

<script language="JavaScript1.1" src="http://www.jetcityorange.com/fortune_cookie/random_quotes.js">

Or try using this fortune cookie RSS feed. If you do please consider linking back to JetCityOrange. Spread the love.

These fortune cookies are unique to JetCityOrange and are unlike any other you've every read. Why? Because I wrote them, that's why! Don't believe me? Then reload this page and read the one above again. In fact, I update the pool of fortune cookie messages on an ongoing basis. I scribble them down on slips of paper and update the script.

I've been known to make my own custom fortune cookies at a bakery here in Seattle. Here are instructions on how to make your own fortune cookies at home. It's easier to have Tsue Chong do it for me.

I think we can both agree that my fortune cookies will cause more of an uproar than these fortune cookies. I get to speak my mine honestly and unabashedly. Those other guys have to remain "mainstream" and "consumer friendly". That ain't me.

Our beloved friends at Wikipedia says that fortune cookies contain "a piece of paper with words of faux wisdom or vague prophecy". Sound familiar?




I like this fortune cookie site too. I'm not UNIX geek and that's why I don't use the UNIX program fortune. You can also make your own fortune cookie in PHP. If I hadn't already rolled my own in JavaScript, I'd use it myself.

Lastly, going from the virtual to the real (or surreal in this case), check out weird fortune cookies dot com. Yep, examples of odd fortunes folks have received. You know, little slips of paper inside your cookie. Odd, I know.
