  1. in the past few months I've discovered I was holding chopsticks wrong and that I was tying my shoelaces wrong. never too late to discover you're fucking up some very basic life skills.

      chopsticks: I was holding them on a kinda claw-like way, rather than in a better pencil-like way shoelaces: they stay tied better if the first knot & the bow alternate in terms of whether the left or the right side goes over the top

        this is why when you were a little kid & an adult retied your shoelace, it would stay tied better. not that their technique was better, they'd just automatically do it the other way because they were facing the other way.
