One of the best things about eating at a Chinese restaurant is opening the fortune cookie at the end of the meal and finding out what your future holds. You can make this experience even better by messing with the messages.

what you do
THE SETUP
1 Carefully cut out the fortunes that you’ve printed and put them in your pocket the next time you go to a Chinese restaurant.
PULL THE PRANK
1 When the fortune cookies arrive, sneak a fake fortune out of your pocket. Here are a couple of ways you can use it—or you can come up with your own ideas:
* Open your own cookie and say, “Wow! You guys are not going to believe what mine says!” Then pass the fake fortune around the table.
* Ask someone if you can open his or her cookie. (Offer to let the person have your cookie so they don’t get suspicious.) Hide a fake fortune in the palm of your hand. As you open your victim’s cookie, switch the real fortune for the fake one. Read it silently to yourself, and then say, “Um, you got a kind of weird one” and hand it to your victim.
