“Say what?”
“Don’t ask.”
Weird, my friend got this exact same fortune a few weeks ago!
OMG! THAT’S AWESOME!!!
I think it is suppose to be one of those “One man’s trash is another man’s treasure” kinda things. Definitely a more interesting way of putting it though.
wow, my ex-boyfriend got a similar fortune about… 7 years ago? It said “the onion you are eating is another man’s lotus”
i think the water lily and onion are actually related, so it sort of makes sense
Or are they just suggesting that you raided a poor person’s garden?
aw that’s sweet. in a confuddling way.
I’m writing this story, the title is “Tasting Water Lilies” (c)2008 I wanted to find out how I could incoorperate the title to the acuall story and I came across the thing about the fourntune cookie. THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH! I finally know how the story ends and why it’s called “Tasting Water Lilies”. THANKS A MILL…;)
no wonder my cheeseburger tastes like crap.
I’ve received this one too. Though I understand what it implies I couldn’t help thinking perhaps there is a sad person out there that misses their flowers I mistakenly consumed due to my poor taste buds and blindness.
