Why India must stand up for Fortune Cookies
Believe it or not but alot of people are supersticious. And what better way then to finish off a meal with a fortune cookie that tells you something with wisdom, right? Also, its made of flour, sugar, butter, vanilla, and milk; actually tastes pretty good if you ask me. Last fortune cookie I cracked open, my fortune read "you the man" and I looked in the mirror, and it made sense. I AM "the man"; I will also prove it by having a drinking competition with Adu if you don't believe me, but it has to be Vodka LOL Well anyways, Long Live The Fortune Cookie, that brings little fella's like me hope

This is blasphemy. All be advised that this will not be tolerated. WAB is a Butter Cookie domain. All hail the Butter Cookie .... if you do not want to be drowned in chocolate milk.

What would you have thought if it had said, "you the woman"?

I do prefer butter cookies over fortune cookies, however, when I was stationed in CA, I had just graduated from Personal Affairs school. We went to a chinese restaurant, and when the fortune cookies came around, I opened mine and started laughing. My fortune said - "You will always have good luck in your Personal Affairs". Very ironic, I thought!

Of course! The Lenin Room was full already and we haven't finished with the Dzerzhinsky wing.

To counter the Fortune Cookie invasion, we Indians have decided to slip in little slips of paper containing fortunes inside of Samosas. A totally original, Indian way (And did I forget to say much better?) of delivering more bang for your buck. Literally.














ALL HAIL THE MIGHTY SAMOSA
