he might as well be eating yakitori… it’s just grilled chicken pieces (even offal) on a skewer

I am clapping with one hand.

For novices they have “cheater” chopsticks with a little hinge at the top to hold them together.

I have had Japanese mothers ask me to teach their children to use chopsticks properly, but then, I was born here in 1948.

FTGTC = Failure to Grasp the Concept. Also Failure to Grasp the Chopsticks.

For a novice as clueless as you, I would recommend a knife and fork.

You’re too young for a bicycle, so I got you this unicycle.

You can cross that hashi when you come to it.

I like watching people eat rice with chopsticks

Why are they called “chopsticks” instead of just “sticks”??

sir, you ordered dog food. Also, why are you in my house?

I’ve seen Chinese people eating with a fork and spoon….. no sticks in sight.

“Oh, absolutely, sir!”

*runs in back*

“Larry, quick, get the camera!”

I always thought they ought to make hollow chop sticks for soup. Maybe there was a patent infridgement problem with the straw patent.

Actually, it is safer learning a unicycle than a bicycle. If you lose your balance, there is no frame to tangle in as you bail out.

No, no I wouldn’t.

There was a scandal in Canada when the Official Languages Act was coming in. In classifying English or French schools a girl was asked to set a table. She got the plate, no bowls in the choice, and a spoon. They ruled she didn’t know English. Her table setting didn’t use knife and fork, but chopsticks.
