The Chinese Have Gone Too Far!


Today I had a nice dinner in a Chinese restaurant in Casa Grande, AZ. As is tradition, I received a fortune cookie with my bill. When I was younger, the fortune cookie was my favorite part of the meal...it was an opportunity for me to get a glimpse into the future that only the Chinese knew. Within the past few years, however, I've seen the fortunes get crappier and crappier. Lately I've been receiving fortunes such as "You're a nice person" or "You have a positive attitude" which is more fortunate for others that have to deal with me, than to myself. But tonight's fortune took the cake (or I suppose the cookie)
My fortune read: "Made in the USA"

What the F, China?

You have gotten screwed by China more than any other person I know.

Aw, the screwing at the hands of the Chinese continues. I am sorry to hear this tragic story, but we all know that it doesn't end here.

I think you would be better off bringing in your own cookie and a hallmark card and when they come over to the table to give you the fortune cookie, you take it out of their hand and throw it against the wall. Then, give him the cookie and card and say "This is how we do it in America!!"

It was saying "you" were made in the USA. It's a right on fortune cookie, if you ask me! "HA! HA! HA! Bazooka Joe! He so funny!"
