Wisdom cookie

The opposite of a fortune cookie, instead of telling you your fortune, it offers a bit of philosophical wisdom. Usually, it's a heavy disappointment.

A wisdom cookie would say: "You have a zest for the finer things in life," as opposed to "You will have full contentment by summer's end".

fortune cookie wisdom

When somebody claims to be smart, but half of the shit they say is obvious and can be found in a fortune cookie.

Asshole - Work hard and you will be okay.
Normal Guy - No shit, thanks for the fortune cookie wisdom, asshat.
