My Worlds Converge: Fortune Cookies meets City Room
By Jennifer 8. Lee | October 29, 2008
Fortune Cookies for the M.T.A.
This piece by Willie Neuman talks about fortune cookies (protesting the M.T.A.) on City Room. Some of the sayings (none by Confucius, as much as we can see)
- “If you cut transit service, this cookie will give you heartburn.â€
- “Raising transit fares will wreak havoc on your love life.â€
- “In a tough economy, it is wise to invest in transit.â€
- “Good luck in the new year: more aid from the state and city.â€
Down at the bottom of the bag of cookies was one spoofing a line that most subway riders will recognize: “There’s a fortune cookie right behind this one.†But it was the last cookie in the bag.
