Round Two with the chopsticks, yo.

It began rather inauspiciously, as follows:

TJ: (picks up chopsticks)
Jeff: It's kind of sad.
TJ: What?
Jeff: That your son does better than you do with those things.
TJ: ...Shut up, dude.

And so we begin.

Final Stats:

TJ vs. Mongolian Beef
------------
Beef: Consumed
TJ: 1 point

TJ vs. Sesame Chicken
------------
Chx: Consumed
TJ: 1 point

TJ vs. Chow Mein
------------
Noodles: Mostly consumed
TJ: 1 point and a slightly messy shirt

TJ vs. Fried Rice
-------------
...well, okay, the jury's still out on that particular struggle. But the odds are in my favor!

(stabs chopsticks triumphantly into the air) Boo-yah!!

I still claim no particular elegance with these things, but...it's sad, really, how pleased I am about having adequately managed their use. ^_^

As they say in Klingon...well, okay, I can't *spell* in Klingon to save my life but the word I'm thinking of means "Success!!"

(steps out to change into a clean shirt)

Tip with chopstick and scooping: Hold your chopstick at a small angle and hold the bowl to your mouth, then scoop with the angled chopstick with the amount of rice into your mouth. Just remember not to splatter yourself with the rice while consuming it at the same time. Is actually harder to eat without bowl to mouth, but it works both ways as just scooping the rice and place it into mouth. Damn... I feel hungry...

Hee. Jeff called that 'cheating'. (snickers) But if it's not, then the point for that round goes to me. ^_^

Is called, 'Pa Fan' in Chinese. Otherwise, I do not know how else you could eat. Even when you reach the end of the bowl from by picking up the rice into your mouth; you would then later scoop the rice with the bowl to your mouth.

Cheating? When i see that technique used in half a dozen anime and then used again in a dozen more? What planet is he on? *laughs*
