I use chopsticks at the restaurant. In reality, we haven't been out to eat much since our daughter was born so it's typically takeout... which I will eat with a fork and knife... like a boss.

Sushi I will always eat with chopsticks.

Just got lunch from the lady's auxillary barbeque out front. Not a utensil was needed. Did have to hose off pretty well though.

Ha! I don't know how people can eat without a knife. Doesn't really make sense. Aside from things like burgers and pizza, but that's a different story.

Something went incredibly right in your life. There'd be a huge void if there wasn't a Lups on bimmerpost.

This is what America and freedom is all about!


BBQ sauce all over the face is a huge turn on. Nothing gets me like a woman that dives head first into a pile of meat with her hands....

I should rephrase this... I don't need utencils to eat *every* meal, however a meal with any type of small side (couscous, corn, peas, any type of rice, etc) needs a knife. I'm not that dick at the table cutting pizza, ribs, burgers, or chicken wings with a knife.

You need two hands! Symmetry! Coffee be damned, it has to be done so!

I agree with pizza and so on, I do do finger foods, but if I have a fork, the knife is a must or Lups goes.

I don't know about the void, but thanks for the kind words.

I like things to be level. Drives me crazy when a decal for a car dealer is on crooked, and can't understand how the driver would have just accepted it that way. Or, you see a Cayenne Turbo S and the EZPass tag is on crooked, wth you couldn't take 45 sec. more and put it on straight?

If a car radio's volume control is measured with numbers, I dislike setting the volume to a prime number.

I eat everything with knife and fork. I was at a crawfish boil recently. I put some potatoes, onions and corn on my plate and started eating them with my knife and fork. The host comes up to me and says "fucking Europeans"...

I thought I was hard to live with.
I do everything the same, until I get it perfect then I never do it again.. i guess that's called persistent perfectionism.

btw you don't have OCD if you're enjoying it

I can't stand streaks or smears on glass/mirrors.

First, I don't know why you have finger prints on your windows and mirrors in the first place, but clean that shit up, it's getting in the way of my beautiful face and vision.

Rib place here does them right. You can just lift the bones out of the meat and drop them on the bones plate. I'm spoiled now. Any other place that makes you work to get the meat off the rib is no good for me.

I'm not OCD, but my wife is ridiculous when it comes to it.....

she will not, like EVER, and I mean EVER come in and out of the living room through the left side of the TV.

see the wall where the TV is - there are two entrances to the kitchen.

she will NEVER use the left side - LIKE EVER....

I know many people who say or think they are obsessive-compulsive but only a few who actually have that disorder. The ones that do obsess over past situations (obsession over the order of things or cleanliness is comparatively uncommon).

We are a culture of self-diagnosers. That shit gets really old when you're sizing up patients and they want to tell you what illness they have or what medications they need because it's what they saw on a TV commercial or WebMD. 9/10 times they can't even pronounce the condition/drug properly.

It's multiplied by a thousand when they are trying to get some sort of disability pay out of it... All of a sudden they are completely broken and can't do anything.

Also, people who really suffer daily are being put to the same pile as the people who just play with words. That alone should hold me back from using this, but the inner idiot still refers my eating nazism as ocd.

OMG it drives me absolutely insane if the blade is facing away from the plate. In a restaurant I swear I can spot the backward knives from across the room.

Sitting at a table with backward knives, I face an awkward situation. I don't want MY knife to be backwards, but at least I can fix that easily. You get some strange looks when you reach across the table to flip someone else's knife over...
