Well, I guess to snooty NYC/Hollywood types, but to regular folk here in flyover country, not of oriental persuasion, chopstick use smells a bit of putting on airs.

Aka the behavior of the people who make America great, not the coastal homos who are well on their way to destroying this once great country, you excluded of course A-dog.

If you can tie a shoe you can use chopsticks.

Well of course this is quite apparent if zipperheads squatting in the bush eating their cold rice and rat meat can do it, but that wasn't the question posed here chicken choker.

I married into a family that is mixed race Asian/White, with the older Asian folks being first generation immigrants, so yes, I use chopsticks pretty regularly. If some folks think it's "snooty", I really don't give a shit.

basic life skill to learn. last time i ate at a Chinese food restaurant, I used the provided chop sticks and enjoyed my meal. clean plate club, never touched a fork, spoon, or knife. that was many years ago, but I'm certain i could figure it out again in short order if needed.

I recognize that meme but can't quite remember the other places user that concept is attibuted to. But no, in my cheapness, I stop at buying used shoes. I could barely stand to even rent bowling shoes.

On one of the first dates with my wife, we went to a Vietnamese restaurant she likes. It was my first time there, and first time using chopsticks. She was amazed at how adept I was with them, and she told me later that that was when she was pretty sure I was the one.

I replied "What took you so long???"
