Chinese chopstick etiquette

There are certain rules for using knives and forks, so why wouldn't there be rules for chopsticks? Now that I know how to use chopsticks properly and (hopefully) without offending anyone, here are some main rules.

No playing with chopsticks In other words, using them like drumsticks and swordfighting with your table neighbour is not permissible (at least not in public).

No sticking your chopsticks up vertically into your bowl Shrines to deceased people usually have a bowl of rice or sand with 2 incense sticks sticking upwards, which is why sticking your chopsticks into your bowl can have similar unpleasant associations.

No pointing your chopsticks at people Pointing your chopsticks at someone is also a no go, as it's seen as hostile.

No digging around You should take from the top layer and avoid digging around the plate in search of the food.

No eating directly from the main plates You should first place the piece of food that you took onto your own plate, and then eat it, instead of eating straight from the source.

No tapping against the bowl Tapping against your plate is considered to be impolite and should be avoided when possible.

Based on a real game I used to play with my friends/cousins when we were little lol. You hold the firecracker for as long as possible before throwing it. Don't try this at home.

scritch scratch for the Liu besties and a small hc~

anw, tastewise, I think Meursault and Gregor like lighter noodles while Ishy likes the ones with more flavor. Hong Lu is a different breed because he puts too much stuff in and just makes it spicy

also also, Ishy initially ate alone but the other 3 caught her once and then they started hanging out with each other! A group of besties!

Another great Elayne moment is when she’s trying to be undercover at the Panarch’s Palace and drops a curtsy to the head cook that she swears is exactly the same curtsy she’s seen servants give her and she has to run out of there because the woman thinks she’s mocking her. For one it’s just great situational/cultural misunderstanding comedy but it’s also Elayne’s sheltered upbringing that she doesn’t know how like, the common people interact with each other. Of course, Tarabon is very far from Andor so it’s not that she would have seen this for herself, but more that she applies her worldview into situations without fully realizing the implications.

#it’s also like her not knowing how to use the chopsticks #despite Thom knowing #or like being sliiightly wrong about Aiel customs #wheel of time #elayne trakand

My workplace is having a late Christmas party and it's dress up and with like 4 days left to go I decided to go as knight gudetama

Except I decided it would be far funnier to, instead of that spoon thing he's holding in his right hand, to make chopsticks instead

#only decided on gudetama because i realised 2 days ago i actually have a yellow hoodie i could wear #gonna print out his face and stick it onto cardboard and use that as a mask #while i put my hoodie on and tighten it lmao #anyway the chopsticks are held together with rubber bands cause i wanted to see how they'd look #but I'm thinking maybe put foam or something inside and have the 4 walls around it #either way I'm gonna be surprising somebody with random big chopsticks lol

"Women who could channel were dangerous animals rather than people."

honestly cracking up laughing at this thought from Egeanin because like, famous last words for someone about to get Wondergirled

like she is so deep in her Seanchan indoctrination even like up to the moment that she met Elayne and Nynaeve, and they really just broke her by being nice to her and treating her like a person, all while openly claiming to be Aes Sedai

#like the evil marathdamane treated her more like a person than the seanchan slave in this chapter does #of course having Elayne and Nynaeve just talk casually with her #and bicker with each other in front of her in non-serious ways and chatting casually with 'servants' and commoners like they're all friends #and having little moments where they all reach for spoons and forks the second they're alone because they don't know how to use chopsticks #even though eating like that isn't supposed to be proper and they'er all like grinning because they know theyre gonna choose to be vulgar #like OF COURSE they broke Egeanin and made her treasonous #this is like the first time that people with even an ounce of power treated her like a human being #and these people are supposed to be the MOST corrupt with power being Aes Sedai and Elayne being royalty #of course they broke her #i love her so much #wheel of time #wot book spoilers #egeanin tamarath #shadow rising #elayne trakand #nynaeve al'meara

there is a a very interesting trend within the bg3 fandom where people will infantilize karlach to such an extent that it becomes very clear that their only understanding of her comes from incorrect quotes accounts.

Shirase grew on the street as a gang leader from at least seven. I doubt he knows how to read a clock at sixteen but he does know how to do shit.
