Make my own

I went out to lunch with a friend. We went to a Chinese restaurant and at the end when the bill came, there were two "fortune cookies" on the tray. I broke mine open and it was empty. I looked puzzled. My lunch partner broke hers open as well. It was empty as well.

As we contemplated the situation, it became clear that what the fortune cookie said was ... make your own fortune. Wow, what a burden!
