Opinions
Once a man visited his friend in Japan who offered him noodle.
But chopsticks were foreign to his brain and he found it hard to handle.
He tried his best to look cool;
not wanting to appear like a fool.
Finally, he was relieved when his friend took away the chopsticks and offered him a fork upon realizing he was in some serious muddle.
