Welcome!


One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we've been bamboozled
long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We're no
longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured
us. it is simply too painful to acknowledge -- even to ourselves -- that
we've been so credulous. (So the old bamboozles tend to persist as the
new bamboozles rise.)

  • An API for getting fortunes on your website or in your app!
  • Free! With full source code available!
  • Hopefully safe for work, but not edited by me.
There are lots of sources you can try:
