notes of love and hate | January 14, 2008

I made one hundred fortune cookies and filled each of them with personalized notes from my heart.

    Ohh those are some good ones with some bite. (I know several people who I’d like to give the third to last and the last one too)

    Hahaha these are great! I wish I could give “I am amazed by the level of your negativity, and not in a good way” to a few friends/co-workers of mine. Is it SO hard to be positive and look at the bright side once in a while??

    Love.

    And I wish I could give a few of those to a few people in my life who could certainly use a wake-up call in the form of a fortune cookie.

    As I was writing these I started to think of a few notes like these I could possibly write to myself

    Such as:

    “Life is seriously not as hard as you feel like it is.” and “Stop complaining and do something about it already.”

    Brilliant idea.

    You know how you’re supposed to say “in bed” after your fortune cookie message? I seriously got one that said “Behind every great man, there are many other great men (in bed).” Yeah, baby…

    These may very well be the best fortunes I’ve ever seen.

    Haha. I would, like, shit a brick if I opened a cookie and found a note like that! Super funny.

    This? Is sheer brilliance.

    Every single one of these made me think of someone I know. And I love the graphic.

  17. Tina Says:

    Oh I’m so glad you guys can relate to thoughts like these. I wish I could say these to their faces, and have them understand that I say them because I care about them not because I hate them. If I didn’t care, they would not even be on my radar.

  18. Clueless Cat Says:

    LoL, love them!

    Here’s one to add:

    Sleeping with a good friend’s boyfriend the night they break up is a sign that you are not the great friend you think are.

    I love it. Sometimes I send myself little “kick myself in the ass” notes via email, and they remind me of those. But there are several here I would love to share with others…

  21. Anandi Says:

    Wow, I would love to put a batch of these in the breakroom at work. *Awesome*

  22. Paula Says:

    Can you make me a batch please??? I can think of some people I would LOVE to give these to. (Also, if you could put some poison in the cookie recipe as well, that would be FABULOUS!)
