Foreshadowing Device too Obvious to Use

Last night, I got a fortune cookie that had no fortune in it.

If I was in a short story, I'd clearly be slated for some sort of weird death scene. Or at least a scrape with one, only to be granted my life back because I had some sort of major revelation, with the help of the ghost of Kit past. Or something like that.

Anyway, I thought it was odd. I've never had an empty fortune cookie before.
