Sentio User ID: 76939846 United States 07/02/2020 06:35 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I hold my fork in my left hand, knife in my right. Quoting: ElleMira I have a weird way of solving math problems. My daughter (she's a math major) is perplexed at the ass-backwards way I solve math problems. She tries to show me shorter methods but I find it confusing - I like my way better. Do you work backwards from the answer? The fork and knife gig is actually proper etiquette, good for you. I've denied many a second date over eating etiquette, it says a lot about a person and how they approach life. Yes, even Pirates can be well-rounded and refined. My husband knew I was the one when I leaned over and opened his door for him after he opened mine first to let me in his car. (First date) His education was from the movie Bronx Summer where the dad says "If she don't lean over and open the door for you, DUMP her!" . I always did that when I was dating. . |

ElleMira User ID: 76494359 United States 07/02/2020 08:01 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I hold my fork in my left hand, knife in my right. Quoting: ElleMira I have a weird way of solving math problems. My daughter (she's a math major) is perplexed at the ass-backwards way I solve math problems. She tries to show me shorter methods but I find it confusing - I like my way better. Do you work backwards from the answer? No - it's hard to explain & depends upon the problem. For example, if I had to cut a recipe in half and lets say the recipe called for 3/4 cups of flour - I would instead use 1/4 cup of flour plus 2 tablespoons (4 tablespoons in a 1/4 cup). Actually, I measure using grams when baking so that's probably not a good example. Sewing is another method where I use long math calculations and gardening (determining square footage for planting vegetables). My daughter is a whiz when it comes to math - me, not so much |

Miss Bunny Swan (OP) User ID: 76967933 Hong Kong 07/02/2020 11:31 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I don't like any of my food touching on a plate. I also eat one food item at a time which I was told was weird when I was at an orientation thing in Atlanta years ago. I was sitting at a table with a bunch of strangers and one of the women commented about it. I honestly don't see what's weird about it. Quoting: Anonymous Girl Me too!!! I don’t like them touching and I like to taste each item by itself!! When I first got to Australia my boyfriend took me to Mac Donald’s on the drive home and he said I eat the French fries funny. I take the ketchup packet, rip off the corner, and apply a neat line of ketchup down each fry before eating, one at a time. |

I also can’t drink anything hot, I always add Or ask for a pair of Ice cubes if someone serves me a hot beverage. I can’t stand hot soups also, I have added Ice cubes to soup.

Back when I did eat fries (I am strictly ketogenic now) I also opened the ketchup packet and applied a line across the entire lenght of the fry. I also like only Heinz Ketchup, can’t stand any other.
