This was in a restaurant where I'm a regular and know the owner. "Freddy!" I yelled, and the owner, who's a great guy and the main chef, comes over and asks, "Andy! What's up?" "I got a broken fortune," I tell him. "A broken cookie?" He asks. "No. A broken fortune. 'You're ignorance may be the real problem.' What kind of friggin' fortune is that?

This was in a restaurant where I’m a regular and know the owner. “Freddy!” I yelled, and the owner, who’s a great guy and the main chef, comes over and asks, “Andy! What’s up?”

“I got a broken fortune,” I tell him.

“A broken cookie?” He asks.

“No. A broken fortune. ‘You’re ignorance may be the real problem.’ What kind of friggin’ fortune is that? That’s no fortune… that’s the truth! I don’t want a ‘truth cookie!’”

He got me another.
