Monty by Jim Meddick for June 26, 2011

I don’t get it.

ANYONE HAVE AN IDEA ON THIS ONE?

Well, everyone thinks these are factory made and all reading the same thing, turns out there is a real live person predicting your future in the room next door :) (That’s how i understand it).

You just never know what’s going on in the back room. But the service here is excellent; I predict that even Monty will tip generously!

cute little typewriter to write the fortunes with

So somebody here know Chinese?

@kvrabelova: I think you nailed it.@spamster: Excellent catch about the typewriter. I’d have missed it without your help.@AnonymousU: It looks very similar to Chinese characters, perhaps as miscopied by someone who doesn’t understand the writing. Maybe someone who knows Chinese writing can actually understand it, just as someone who reads and understands English can make sense out of even bad typos. (I don’t know Chinese, but I once had to learn at least enough Chinese writing to be able to catalog some Asian coins.)

Hey that waiter just cursed out……….just kidding, I don’t know how to read Chinese.

says, good luck later on the can…

“Hey, Fortune Cookie Master, so sorry but you need to change little tiny typewriter ribbon.”

Very funny. The fortune cookie master obviously reads palms and has a crystal ball. The first two characters mean “stubborn person”. Still trying to figure out the other two.

must….have…Chinese…take…out…NOW!

Where is the masters ashtray? Can’t believe he flicks onto the floor..

Sign out front say..“No…we no see your cat… preaze..stop asking !”

Did this Monty comic get truncated. What I’m looking at ends with the waiter saying something in Chinese to the “Fortune Cookie Master”. Is that the punchline???
