Fortune cookies were created in America.

It is said to be a nod to the mooncake, which the Chinese used to smuggle messages to one another when they were still under Mongolian rule in the 14th century.

No, those were invented in America too.

I was trying to shoehorn a 1980's Weird Al reference into this thread.

That one I understand, as it's the usual "kids say the darnedest things" slop. There's at least an attempt there.

Looking for quality in Family Circus is basically asking for disappointment.

The funniest strip in this thread is the photoshopped one.

Himu · « **Reply #23 on:** August 22, 2008, 02:12:49 AM »

I don't think anyone is looking for quality in FC.

We need more photoshops.

I think the joke is that he considers buying junk food out of a van to be a neat place to eat, and representative of the quality of dining to be had in Washington D.C.

Yes, it's subtle racist humor just like the OP.
