Not long ago, I went to a Chinese restaurant with my girlfriend. Everything about the meal was glorious until the fortune cookies came. My girlfriend’s fortune said in exactly these words,

“Today is a day of great destruction. Beat them or join them.”

I was shocked. I have never received nor seen anyone receive an even slightly negative fortune, let alone a sadistic fortune implying doomsday. To top it all off, it was Friday the 13th. It freaked us both out, and I can’t help but wonder who “them” is.

Either the restaurant has a twisted sense of humor, or we are all in trouble!
