“After some initial trouble, you will ascend to new heights”

It's the most layered joke I've ever come up with. Pretty proud of it, ngl.

[-] sanguinepar@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

"No fortune cookies for you! This is not America."

"You will reunite with a friend"
"The bad times will be over quickly"
"A sudden windfall will come your way"
