You know you're a pad thai addict when . . . you purposely stagger your thai restaurants so that you don't look like a desperate hoe.

Fri, March 25, 2005 - 6:25 PMI love the Chinese food vendor in that Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker movie....what is it called?...ummm....brain...tick tick...Oh. Rush hour. "I no punk bitch!"
I eat with chop sticks and hold them way back at the far ends to show that I am dignified and upper class. Then I spill my water and make a mess of the world. -

Mon, March 28, 2005 - 1:23 PMSo I was graciously informed that Thai people do not actually use chopsticks. They only provide those for stupid Amercans like us that think all Asians use chopsticks : ) Thought I'd share that information with you : ) -

Mon, March 28, 2005 - 6:00 PMInteresting...good to know...
I don't mind looking stupid and Amerikan. I like to eat with chopsticks because it slows the process a bit and makes eating much more healthy and pleasurable. -

Thu, June 2, 2005 - 1:11 PMyeaaaa, i don't know why, but for some things, metal forks creep me out. like, when i'm slurping on deliciously sweet pad thai noodles, the last thing i want to feel is cold hard metal.
hot, sweet bamboo placing those noodles onto my palette is much nicer.
