Hey, I prefer chopsticks for eating any soup with noodles. You eat the noodles with your chopsticks and then you drink or spoon up the broth.

Reason to use chopsticks:

- A lot of Asian cuisine is more subtle in terms of seasoning and overall flavor profile and the mouthfeel and taste of chopsticks is less jarring than that of metal utensils. This is not the case with fucking cup noodles, but would you really eat sashimi with a fork?
- You live in Asia
- Ritual. It's fun to eat Azn food with Azn utensils out of Azn bowls and shit. It's like you're really Toshiro Mifune. And when you're done you can imagine how read it would be to win a sword fight with a tea cup or appreciate the craftsmanship of your fruity little tea cup or something. This is the same reason that the industries surrounding marriage make billions of years, why people smoke blunts even though they waste weed, and why some of those religious holidays they have in Southern Europe where they dress up like the KKK and run around the streets with huge gold crosses are so neat.

There's many bad manners associated with chopsticks, but if you come to Japan there are two things that you must not do. One is sticking your Chopsticks in your food, and two is passing food from chopstick to chopstick.
In the second on, you should always use a small dish to transfer food.
The first one was already explained, the second one is how bones are handled by the relatives of the deceased after they are cremated. And both of these things mean "Someone here is going to die soon"

It may seem like a supersition, but these are two things that are incredibly bad manners. Normally if you lick your chopsticks, people will forgive you because you're a dumb foreigner.

Chopsticks are approximately 3.2 thousand years old. Shinto Buddhism itself is roughly 1100 years old, and the rites associated with cremation that Weeabanon is referring to are, at the very least, hundreds of years old. Older than America as a country, and we certainly have our own unique traditions.

Also, you're declaring several people to be the same Japanophile chiding you for acting like a retard. Face it, flaunting manners because they "don't make sense" isn't rational, it's just rude.

Traditional Western table manners actually make a lot of sense.

Don't put your elbows on the table. You'll dip your shirt sleeve in something that was spilled or knock over a dish.

Put your napkin on your lap. You are just begging to drop some food right onto your pants. Don't you know how much your mother paid for them?

Put your utensils back when you're done using them, or your stupid ass will inadvertently catapult them off your plate and directly onto your date's dress, which you will ruin, and then she won't put out.

In order to feel the need to post these pics you have to be sufficiently angry or frustrated with the person they're directed at. Why else would you feel the need to vent your emotions in this way? Unless you're using them to describe yourself (which would imply a level of self-deprecation never before seen on the internet), the irony is so delicious it actually becomes appropriate for the /ck/ board.

no, its a superstition because its a thing that asians believe will bring bad fortune

The tradition is that a bowl of rice with sticks stuck in it is placed on top of the grave of the recently deceased. Therefore, if you did it at the dinner table it would imply that you are about to die.
Of course its just stupid bullshit, do what you want at home, but if you are at a restaurant show some decency and don't do it

But it's still rude no matter if it implies you're going to die or not.

But I guess whoever said he doesn't care about all that is just an uncultured USAian.
