alright well you've all convinced me that i have no excuse not to figure these exotic and perplexing tools out >.<

yeah I can competently eat pretty much any kind of Japanese/Chinese/Korean dish with chopsticks. I don't doubt the way I hold them doesn't match the way natives do, but it works for me.

I can't even use pens the "normal" way either; I blame my lefthandedness for both. When I try using my right hand for pens or chopsticks I actually gravitate toward more-or-less the normal way to hold them but then I'm absolutely terrible at it and can't write legibly or keep a hold of my noodles. I feel like I probably could be ambidextrous if I tried but I'm just not used to using my right hand for precision tasks so I suck at it.

sometimes I feel like eating finger food like chicken tenders and chips with chopsticks would be a good idea to avoid getting my hands greasy or covered in dorito powder or whatever, but I don't do it
