Just been out for a Thai meal and I used chopsticks to eat. I'm a bit messy at it but it's great :D
I'd forgotten how much fun it was. Do people who use chopsticks find it fun eating with a fork?
Thai beer is nice. SINGHA!

Thai food is very nice, but i'm nowhere near dextrous enough to use chopsticks. My hands don't work that way for some reason.

you don't really need dexterity for using chopsticks, more a sheer bloodymindedness.

they're great - use them a lot. i once caught a fortune cookie that was hurled from across the room using standard wooden chopsticks.

Using chopsticks usually makes me think:
"WHY THE FUCK IS THIS INSANE CUTLERY EVEN LEGAL, NEVER MIND SOCIALLY ACCEPTABLE? I WANT TO EAT FROM A TROUGH, BIIIIIITCH".
True story.

chopsticks makes you enjoy your meal much longer, if you use just one you can enjoy your meal for days

my two older step brothers used to fight a lot as kids, the worst cases being a cracked skull and a fork in the forehead! gay.
i'd hate to have someone shove me while i'm eating and ram the fork into my soft palate.

maybe we can discuss the difference between the history of the fork and the history of chopsticks. I think the history of chopsticks is logical; people just broke some branches of a three and started to eat their food without getting dirty hands, The history of the fork? i dunno

I don't think anyone would appreciate a fork being jammed into their forehead. That'd just be silly.

here's a gay one: in hell you all have to eat with chopsticks but they are too long and you have to hold them at the end wich makes it impossible to put the other end to your mouth, everyone is well hungry.
in heaven on the other hand they all eat plenty yet they have the same obligations with the long sticks, but they feed each other see...

a fork is just a stick with a few prongs added - probably started with pricking your food on a twig and then eating it.

well, it doesn't matter how gay it is (although it certainly is rife with faggotry), it makes me feel all warm and tingly.
or is that the beer finally kicking in?

I'm waaaaaay ahead of you there, brother Alex.

this evening I'm entertaining myself with a delightful Belgian beer called "Leffe", the "blonde" kind:

i can't use chopsticks the way it is meant to be used (i was NEVER skilled at anything physical or manual, i remember when i was a little kid how long it look me to learn how to tie my shoelaces for example... actually when i think of it it amazes me how i can play video games o_O), every time someone shows me the proper way to use chopsticks, i try, i get it wrong, they show me again, i try again another way but it's still wrong, etc... most of the time when i try to get it right i end up getting either "the helicopter", or two chopsticks blocked, or one blocked and one completely out of control. and either me, or the person who shows me, or us both, get pissed off and give up.
but i can eat using them anyway, in an uncorrect way but which kinda works... more or less easily (sometimes it "snaps" and the food flies over to some place but not very often anymore)... so it's ok i guess! : )

Goodness! Would that be some sort of "weissbier" or something? I have a love-hate relationship with beers of this kind. They don't make me burpy, but i've yet to find one that doesn't have an undertone of vileness.
Oh no, that's "blanche", not "blonde". I'd delete this post but i can't be arsed. I'll shut up and get back to my jack daniels, bought with today's payday wages.
It's almost like a stream of consciousness thing i've got going here. Amazing.
