I had Chinese food for dinner

Which is more difficult:

  • Printing fortunes in random order, and not worrying about whether they're dumped in the bin in the order in which the fortunes were printed, or
  • printing identical fortunes in batches, and ensuring later that adjacent cookies are unlikely to have the same fortune?

I imagine that with fixed plate printing, the problem of printing random fortunes in the same machine would be more difficult. With the advent of inkjets and laser printers, I imagine the process of shuffling fortunes or cookies before dumping them in bins would be more difficult.

Tonight, I got three different fortunes stuck together inside my cookie.

Triple luck for you! Wait, is it racist if I say it?

Only if you aren't wearing your Hong Kong Phooey outfit.

check out the pictures of the "Fortune Cookie Factory" looks pretty random.

Whoa. That's not a factory--it's a space station!

I mean, old lady.
