Freaky Filthy Fortunes Foisted On Festivites
Just remember, when naughty fortune cookies are found edible underwear soon follows until eventually your life resembles one big novelty chainstore:
Posted: February 10th, 2006 | Filed under: That's A Hoot!Guests at a Chinese New Year event hosted by Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz got an eyeful after cracking open fortune cookies with messages more likely penned by Bob Guccione than Confucius.
“Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad — triple-X,” said an embarrassed Markowitz of the 350 bawdy cookies that somehow got mixed in with otherwise G-rated Brooklyn-boosting slogans Tuesday night.
Fortunes like “One good [expletive] deserves another” and other sexually explicit phrases turned the Year of Dog celebration at the Ming Gee restaurant into a blushfest.
Although fortune cookie company Dai Hing Lee Corp. successfully delivered about 1,400 cookies with sayings like “Brooklyn: In your face and in your heart,” many of the 700 guests saw the dirty cookies, too.
Ming Gee owner Larance Yeung apologized for the error, which employees of the Sunset Park restaurant blamed on the fortune cookie company next-door.
