Tell me about it. I was in an elevator with a bunch of teens the other day and it sounded like they were speaking in code.

'Some of my best friends are normal people...'
I mean I’m married to one. She would be appalled if there were knives more than like… $300
Ewww, gross. That is, actually, how I get rid of a lot of my old knives though. The old "you need this more than I do".
They are speaking in code. So did I at that age, I recall.

They’re everywhere. I have my parents sharp knives for Christmas and they refused to use them.
My GF puts her knives in the dishwasher. Meanwhile I wipe my knife dry after use.
I want to give her decent knives but…dishwasher. Or in the sink. No no.
Confession of sorts. I’ve been cooking almost exclusively Chinese food for the past couple months, at least when I’m cooking for myself rather than my wife and son, who have more ‘limited’ preferences, let’s say. But even though I’ll always choose chopsticks at a restaurant, I almost always use a fork at home.

Whenever I make carbonara I break my spaghetti in half before I throw it in the pot. Then on the plate I cut it some more...before eating it with a spoon.
I guess all that's missing is adding pineapple...

I have a habit with spaghetti that annoys my wife to no end: place pasta on plate, top with sauce and cheese, cut pasta to mix in sauce, top with more cheese.
She say's I'm not allowed to go to Italy.
And she is 110% correct!
At least at a restaurant they’ll never give you the individual components in the first place, so your worst impulses will be thwarted.
I still haven’t figure out what the hell is supreme
I think I'll have to take it as a challenge.

You, sir, are a menace to society. Next thing you are going to tell us that you break the spaghetti before putting it into the water.
I have done so - depending on the size of the pot.

Again so many questions like
a. Why did I watch this whole thing?
b. Why is everyone throwing food and trying to stab it with a knife
c. UNWASHED SANDY PARSLEY???? PASTA STAIGHT INTO SAUCE??? HOT OIL EVERYWHERE PUT ON SOMETHING!!!! WHY IS EVERYTHING SO MESSY????
I stress bought a Manaka 240mm gyuto and Miyazaki 250mm gyuto about 2 weeks apart. Have barely touched them since.
It’s a New York street wear brand that became popular with New York skate boarders. It started out as a skateboarding shop with some shirts and shoes(merch) on the side. It developed a cult following among street wear aficionados around the world then crossed-over to the mainstream fashionistas. Now it’s been bought by a multinational company, it’s been slapping its trademark logo on everything and the fans seem to buy a lot of them. There is a Supreme Airstream out there-
So the knife is pretty tame. I used to buy some of the box logo hoodies for myself and my kids, so the knife purchase was made without the necessary restraint and common sense that should have been applied.

I feel like they chickened out on the Airstream. Run that bad boy bumper to bumper, across the middle third.
Sold out in seconds. There are some really rich hypebeasts out there.

Hey man. You only have to have that much money once. Then you don’t.Sold out in seconds. There are some really rich hypebeasts out there.
That's not so bad. I was stressing out at one point in early 2021 and bought 5 knives in 4 days as therapy.
That's rough buddy...Did you end up keeping them all?
