it has been too long. please, come in. pardon the dust, ive just come home from abroad, you see. years ago i attempted to pierce the veil, to uncover the mysteries of the past, present and future. unfortunately I forgot to pack my veil-piercing gear and ended up trapped in a morass of glib, uninspired charlatans with penchants for vague, meandering prose that rubbed off on me like a bad rash. however, during my eighth twaxing with cleo and the wizard, I had a profound vision of truth. on the television was an advertisement for a device, and one unpaid credit card payment of $899.99 later, I was the proud owner of the most accurate fortune telling device on Earth. unfortunately they don't tell you it has to be used daily or it breaks, and over the last six months, ive lost every friend and family member after daily fortunes drove them mad, or at least annoyed that I keep getting inside their homes with the (admittedly) very loud, very large device.

so ive come to you. let me tell your accurate fortunes so that I can keep this thing working long enough for someone to buy it on craigslist.


also, please ignore the yelling. once the machine is turned on, anything lower than 82 decibels is inaudible.

the swarthy tug boat captain of your conscious mind has trolled into murky waters. beware those who sell and buy, for both will lie, softly and without mercy. you must be on your guard, ever vigilant against the injustice of the world. make sure to check the seals on your drinks before purchase, and eye your coolant levels.

hmm yes I always had this vague fantasy of quitting my fortune 500 ceo position to join the circus, I'm glad the stars endorse this otherwise risky move

I'm thinking something in the "geek" category, for example I could eat inedible or gross things, which seems to tie in with my power phrase

bravery in the face of the mundane, a quality your peers attempt to admire. make sure not to let them down again this week by actually cleaning your bedroom and doing the dishes. be wary of those seeking a favor, as they will be critical of your performance. pursue the meal of your dreams at a price within your means. tonight: youtube recommends.
