Onions make me sad, a lot of people don't realize that. When I'm cutting onions, I'm sad. Because the plight of onions, it's sad. But people don't realize I'm actually crying - they think I'm just reacting.

Sharp knife helps to avoid the 'crying' effect which is caused by aerosol particles from the onion when you cut
