Insulting Fortune Cookie

So today I ate chinease.  Half the time, fortune cookies are horrible at giving fortunes.  It’s usually a statement, or some wise saying.  Today I got one that was just plain insulting.

You should be able to make money and hold on to it.

And to make things worse, it had a smiley face at the beginning and end of the fortune.  Ok, so this cookie is assuming that I either don’t make money, or I can’t hold onto it.  Even worse, applying “In Bed” or “Between the Sheets” onto the end of it makes it sound like I’m paying for services, or servicing others.  What is up with that?

They should have worded it different like “You will be able to make money and hold on to it.”

Is it ludicrus to sue a chinease cookie company for punitive damages or misadvertisement?  I kinda expected a fortune in my fortune cookie and ended up being insulted.
