It seems I just can't bring myself to throw them away. A quick count finds 7 fortunes randomly scrawled around my desk. With fortunes from "Tomorrow will be a productive day. Don't oversleep." to "Strong and bitter words indicate a weak cause." Op, just found 2 more. Anyone else have this problem?
"You will soon receive pleasant news of a personal nature." Score!

W/this in mind, I got one that said 'You are about to make a very profitable transaction.' Sadly, it did NOT pan out.

One time I got a fortune that said "Delay is the antidote to anger"
I taped that fortune to the front of the Alesis Quadraverb next to the board.
