"You have no fortune."
I didn't need a cookie to tell me that.
~ Carrie Bradshaw (Sex in the City)
You know that game where you "spice up" your fortune from a Chinese fortune cookie by adding the tag line "...in bed." to the end?
One day at a work lunch, I got the fortune, "You are about to experience something exciting and wonderful!" and as soon as I was back in the office, I emailed my fortune to my husband.
Within minutes I heard back from him: "What a coincidence! I ate Chinese for lunch too. My fortune read, 'You are about to undertake a dangerous mission.' "
How I love that man! ;)
Anyways, it recently occurred to me that the tag line "...in bed." doesn't just spice up fortune-cookie fortunes - it also adds a bit of pizzazz to a lot of popular advertising slogans...
Here are just a few of the ones that I have thought of:

And now, for my favorite one...
What ones can you think of?
PS - and now you know what I do at midnight, when I'm supposed to be finishing a report for work, but I'm totally brain dead... ;)
Thanks for the chuckle. I needed it today, having finally reconciled to the fact that I need both knees replaced. Very cute. I love your blog header. I have a shuttle but not the spool inside. It's been in my Etsy shop forever.
ReplyDeleteHi Nancy, I'm so glad you enjoyed these - I had a lot of fun putting them together!
DeleteI'm sorry to hear about the knee replacements - that does not sound fun at all. I hope it goes as smoothly as possible and you are up and moving again soon!
All the best, Gwen
PS - I'm off to check out the shuttle in your Etsy shop... ;)
Haha! Had a good laugh at these. I dont think I can stop myself from adding "in bed" to all the advertisement slogans now. :D
ReplyDeleteHi Gunjan - I'm so glad you thought they were funny! :)
DeleteThank you for letting me know. :)
