The fortune cookie game.

If you haven't played the fortune cookie game, you're missing out. The rules are simple. There's only one: Add the words "in bed" to whatever your fortune cookie says. I have played this silly little game for years with friends while visiting Chinese restaurants.

For example, today at lunch, my fortune cookie read: "Many people will be drawn to you for your wisdom and insights."

When you add those two little words, you have something else entirely, and usually something quite funny: "Many people will be drawn to you for your wisdom and insights in bed."

For maximum fun, each person seated at the table should read their respective fortune aloud. This mindless little act momentarily takes your mind off the fact that you just ate entirely too much food from the buffet.
