    Finally a fellow chopstick ninja. I knew I wasn’t the only one!

    • Fellow chopstick master checking in. I’ve been told by a TON of expats that I could make a decent amount of money just eating as an extra in Japanese/Korean/Chinese television/film. I might have considered it in my 20s, but not now that I’m almost retired.

          Could be. I think they may have been willing to offer me a premium because I’m shockingly white, with blue/green eyes, and had blonde hair at the time. My dad just taught us all how to use chopsticks as kids, and I spent a semester in college eating everything with them, mainly so that I could.

          Edit: oh, and I’m left handed, which is considered lucky in those cultures, from what I’ve been told.
