I bet most of us would love to get a fortune cookie like that for real!

And Yoda's baker no doubt has a fortune cookie which says, "Try or not try, there is no dough"...

@MaryAnn: Yes! I got the same one a while back: See my response to the fortune cookie post of 2/27.

Had Chinese last night. They did not include a fortune cookie in my order. Honestly, I might not get out of bed today.

As an aside--fortune cookies apparently do not come from China. People in China seem to think they're weird.

I thought everyone knew the non-Chinese origin of fortune cookies by this point...

The oddest fortune I got in a fortune cookie:
"You may fall on the stairs next week".
I SWEAR TO GOD. This from a very generic Chinese delivery place that never before and never again gave me any kind of fortune like it.
I saved it for years and eventually lost it in one my many moves.
And for the record, it was not only odd but it was innacurate - I did not fall on the stairs the next week. But many years later, I tripped on the stairs and banged up my knee and OF COURSE the first thing I thought of was that damned fortune.
