What a very ominous fortune indeed. This fortune cookie is suggesting that people are spying on me, and not to trust my wife or my friends. Surely, this cannot be a good fortune, so I decided to try again.
"Keep your secrets hidden for now."
The cookie has spoken. And as Uncle says, never mock the cookie.

Your cookies remind me of a Monk episode , where the bad guys plot against Monk via fortune cookie messages.

When Olivet's brother-in-law eats Chinese food with Ben and me, he tends to get strange fortunes. Here are some of them:
“All truth goes through three steps: First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Lucky Numbers 9, 37, 12, 44, 5, 16” And step three is . . . blank? We don't know whether they were trying to be clever and make us think, or if there was supposed to be more and they just messed up.
"The profit for the future is the past." As written, it seems to mean that the best thing you can get from the future is the past. Which is depressing. I think we've decided that they really meant "prophet".

I once opened up a fortune cookie when I was at work. It was in NY. The fortune said "f*** you". Someone at the factory must have been cranky. I could not believe it.

You do know that you're supposed to add the words "in bed" to the end of all fortunes from the cookies right?

A restaurant near me sells (mildly) x-rated fortune cookies. But they don't give them out after dinner.

I know. That's why I cracked up when I got a cookie that said: "You will soon have a wonderful experience".

I've always wanted to put something along the lines of "Help! I'm stuck in a fortune cookie factory!" in a fortune cookie.

Penn and Teller's excellent "How To Play With Your Food," contains fake fortunes. The prank is that you give them to yourself by swapping them for the real fortune, react to them in such a way as to make your friends curious, then leave them on the table for your friends to read. Among them:
That lump is cancer. The chef spit in your food.
