Do you know how to use chopsticks?

Chopsticks are handheld skewers. Just stab your food and enjoy.

I need to try that sometime. My eating rate with chopsticks is about an hour and 20 minutes per plate. That calculates out to roughly 4 hours at the Chinese buffet. Rice is the hardest. I can only get like 10 grains at a time.

Wish we could multi-level polls (like if yes/if no...)

Bet the 2 no responses are good ol' U.S. citizens ...

My brain knows how to use chopsticks, it's my stupid hand that doesn't get it.

im canadian and dont know how to. the important question is why the fuck would you everwant to use chopsticks for ANYTHING when theres god damn forks being made EVERY day!??!!?!! especially if youre not living in a 3rd world country....

I can eat soup with chopsticks.

chopsticks basically raised my youngest son.

I changed my transmission with chopsticks.












then rotated my tires with them.

one time, i lost my entire $30,000 bankroll in a hand of texas hold 'em*against Teddy "KGB" ), a russian mobster*who runs an illegal underground poker room. Shaken, i decided to concentrate on law school, while promising my girlfriend and fellow law student Jo*that i would not play the game anymore. my mentor and fellow rounder Knish offered me a part-time job driving a delivery truck to make ends meet.

Time passes, and i am true to my promise. i focus on school and work until my childhood friend Lester "Worm" Murphy is released from prison. Worm is also a card player, who owes an outstanding debt accumulated before his incarceration. At Worm's influence, i am soon rounding again, which interferes with my studies and hurts my relationship with Jo.


When Worm is given a five-day deadline to pay off his debt, i join him in a furious race to earn the money. Worm wants to cheat to win, but i insist on playing the game straight. Playing in several card games in and around New York City, we nearly make the $15,000 needed, but Worm is caught cheating and we lose our entire bankroll. After this, Worm decides to leave the city, and he advises me to do the same. This is when he reveals to me that his debt is owed to KGB, the same Russian mobster who cleaned me out of my $30,000 bankroll several months before. Infuriated, i cut ties with Worm once and for all.


i refuse to flee, and instead, with the help of a $10,000 loan from chopsticks, i sit down to play KGB heads-up in a No-Limit game. In a race against time to pay off Worm's debt, i get my shot at redemption as i put my life on the line against the man who had forced me out of the game.


i eventually beat KGB in two heated heads-up matches in which i ultimately win enough to pay off Worm's debt, repay my loan to chopsticks, and regain my original bankroll of about $30,000. my story ends with me officially dropping out of law school, saying goodbye to Jo, and going to las vegas to play in the World Series of Poker Main Event.

and i owe it all to chopsticks.

i will surgically remove your eye at fifty paces with one chopstick whilst distracting you with the other. i also have a collection that i wear in my hair for self-defense.

do you think they can't get or make forks?
The thing with chopsticks is you eat slower allowing your body to reach the "full" feeling while eating less. Healthier really.

I know how to use chopstick(s). This one time, I broke the stem of a plant, it was horrible. I searched for a solution, my quest took me to the cutlery drawer where I found a lonely chopstick. "Ah-ha", I thought, "you're the bastard that's gonna make this situation allllriiiiight".

Yeah, the results are a bit surprising--21 out of 25 people know how to use chopsticks
In Hawaii, that would kinda be expected, but on the mainland USA or other countries (outside the far east anyway), the results are kinda surprising, to me.
