You can now no longer look at a fortune cookie without noticing it's resemblance to a vagina.

Haha... Sunday I was totally wearing my Chewbacca Cookie t-shirt. :) Also PiGPEN, that is why fortune cookies are so good.

Hm. Another good title while I'm busy with Nur Ein. I suppose it might be possible to dash something off before the next round's title and challenge are announced tonight...

I also suppose I might be eliminated from Nur Ein...

But barring those possibilities, I won't be able to enter this fight. Good title, though.

I don't get the Chewbacca references. Is it an oblique way of referring to the scene in Spaceballs?

I've searched on "Chewbacca Cookie" and "Chewbacca Fortune Cookie" and don't come up with anything which seems remotely related to this, so I have a feeling I have missed out on an important part of Internet "culture."

So I've got this idea using both titles... "Schadenfreude Fortune Cookie"
Can I submit the same song for both contests using the two different titles? Is that legal?
Someone let me know cause I've got to get started.

Nevermind... Glenny says it's legal.
Thank You!

I just finished my submission, but it ended up being an instrumental. I would add vocals, but I actually think they would detract from the song. Hopefully y'all enjoy it anyway, and believe that it was inspired by fortune cookie (which it was! :)).

And remember that week the title was "Flight of the Bumble Bee". Rimsky-Korsakov shat it in.

It's funny the types of music that comes out when you're working for a deadline rather than your soul.
If I had a dollar for every one of my songs j$ has called a 90s pastiche, I'd have $1 for every song I've written.

I'm in. Written and recorded in less than four hours. Looks like I won't be creating any suitably polished stuff any time soon.
The concept was heavily influenced by ideas from irwin. Thanks!
