Synopsis

Everyone loves fortune cookies... right? Well, just wait until you read these! Joe Wang worked for 36 years at a famous Chinese fortune cookie manufacturing company writing fortunes -- like the ones you get in cookies at Chinese food restaurants. At his company, fortunes had to be approved by the Fortune Approval Committee. Over the years, for various reasons, the Fortune Approval Committee rejected certain fortunes. Secretly, he collected these fortunes. This book contains some of the fortunes rejected by the Fortune Approval Committee as ‘Tasteless,' meaning offensive, tactless, insensitive or just plain vulgar. Joe Wang was featured as an contributor to the extraordinary pop culture of fortune cookies in the documentary film, 'The Killing of the Fortune Cookie.' Recommended by comedian Bill Engvall, who said he had to read Joe Wang's tasteless fortunes out loud to his wife. Sure to make you twist, giggle, laugh and groan, it is also a perfect gift book. Here are a few samples: "Your lawyer will get everything you own." "That which you admire the most about yourself will wrinkle and shrivel." "The cure will involve an implant."
