Do you use them? For what?
Are you proficient with them?
How often? For non-Asian foods?

The history can be found on wiki, so I'll bypass that. I've been
using them, regularly, for about 6 yrs. I still don't consider myself
anywhere near having mastered them. More comfortable and use 'em more
and more, but still not my primary eating implement.

I notice my old geezer honky friend, who uses chopsticks exclusively,
has mastered them to a point where it's natural. He even does what I
call the scissors method --which is choreographed nowhere on the web.
Instead of the narrow isosceles trianble hold, most common with
novice/intermediate users, he crosses the sticks and pinches the food
item in a backward cross pinch. This is not unusual, having seen
scores of old geezers at pho houses using the exact same scissors-like
method. My buddy can't even articulate what he's doing, having done
it so long. But, I see the distinction.

BTW, nothing ****es me off like the lame-O retard TV producers who
consistently, to the point of boredom, always show ppl eating Chinese
take-out from the box with chopsticks, like every single living
individual in NYC is born with the inate ability to eat with
chopsticks. The only exception to this insane stereotype is
Christopher Noth on Law and Order, who once actually ate Chinese
take-out from the box with a plastic fork, like most real ppl! Mark
this day!!
