ya, I was trying to get it to look like the part of the message had been cut off, you know as a gag. Sort of like the hint book for fallout 2 you can find after the game is over.
Perhaps this might work better:

Fortune cookie messages.
Couldnt resist... here''s a few:
"I started off with nothing, and I still have most of it."
"Racist dalmations commit suicide."
"Get your head checked. Visit your proctologist."
"Nothing in life scares me, except for the sudden stop at the end."
"I started off with nothing, and I still have most of it."
"Racist dalmations commit suicide."
"Get your head checked. Visit your proctologist."
"Nothing in life scares me, except for the sudden stop at the end."
Here goes:
"Man who runs in front of car gets tired"
"Man who runs behind car gets exhausted"
"Man who walks around with hands in pants feels cocky all day"
"War doesn't determine who's right, war determines who's left"
More to come when I can remember/find them.

"Turn the paper over to get useful information."
"Legolas is gnomosexual."
"The Mutrix has U."
(That one is by some guy from Game Maker forums)
"How do you make it randomly drop evil people from the skies?"
(From fortunes on 'Kevin and Kell' site)
"If the human brains were so simple that we could understand it,
we would be so simple we couldn't."
(Monopoly, but I don't think it's copyrighted)
"Go directly to jail."
By the way, shouldn't the texts be Middle-age-flavoured, or we are allowed to do anachronisms?

Golem isn''t really truly Middle-aged or medieval, technically. If anything, it''s a sort of medieval post-apocalyptic; as the story currently stands, human beings have been largely exterminated and are almost a non-issue.
However, the fortune-cookie system is intended to only slightly touch on the realities of the game world. It will offer a few hints about gameplay and things in the game world, yes, but I am not averse to including such brilliant eccentricities as "It said "Insert disk 3..." but only 2 fit." If a certain fortune cookie quote causes the player to chuckle, then it has accomplished it''s purpose, regardless of whether or not it fits the theme of the game itself.
And again, thanks to all who have contributed. My cookie table has more than tripled in size.

Check out Golem: Lands of Shadow, an isometrically rendered hack-and-slash inspired equally by Nethack and Diablo.
