we should all strive to be uncultured ignorant bafoons.

sushi is also finger food if ive ever seen it...you dont have to use a fork...just dont gay it up with chopsticks

again

theres not a single reason to ever use chopsticks

Sushi is meant to be eaten with your hands if you're in an Asian culture, the American version uses chopsticks because they're more convenient (not to mention our table manors and eating etiquette standards are much lower) . I used to think the same way as you, would never try sushi because I thought it was for hoidy toidy people who lived in LA. An old girlfriend who we'll just say was crazy offered to take me out for some, I tried it and loved it.

...unless, of course, one just feels like using chopsticks as a change of pace.   Sort of like the same reason someone might want to ride a motorcycle instead of a car, or have sex in a different position.

Why criticize something you have never tried? Are you that close minded?

[ice grillin you]

im not criticizing sushi im saying chopsticks are retarded...i have tried using them...they just make no sense whatsoever and theres no reason to use them...ever

if you wanna eat raw fish rice and vegetables knock yourself out...just do it with something other than two pieces of wood

I've been too busy talking to people about "go go bars" up here in North Jersey to even think about chopsticks.  That's how we roll up here, it's all "go go bar this" and "go go bar that".  Totally a North Jersey thing.

Just wake me up before, ok?

Take a chopstick in both hands and gouge your farging eyes out.

All of you.

i don't care about chopsticks, but when i see someone swirling pasta in a spoon, i want to bite their cheeks.

[Wingspan]

the reason people go out to eat is for the experience, a small sample of culture (other than something like tgi fridays and the like), and atmosphere.

chopsticks, sometimes are part of all three of those things. you don't have to use them. but to take the stance like that is retarded. you don't want to use chopsticks? fine. put them down and shut up about it.

Sorry, did you say something?  Guy in the office next to me distracted me by asking me about go go bars.

Don't leave me hanging on like a yo-yo.

i use a spoon. mostly because i grew up that way and it's one of the things i did, as a child, to emulate my grandfather. i still do it. and it's more polite than sucking up a strand a spaghetti flinging sause all over.

however, i dont blast people that don't use a spoon. nor do i care what other opinions are about spoons, or chopsticks, or swirly straws, or any other eating or drinking untensils. that some people are just too stubborn to think that anyone can be any different than themselves.

[Wingspan]
