why farang/foreigners use chopsticks with Thai food

Huh?
I do believe though, the p is silent in swimming pool.

Speaking of unnecessary, why do Brits spell water with an "r"?

Good troll. I'm surprise no one mention Thai words for chopsticks yet…know what to ask will be helpful.

"taa giap"

Oh I see, so bleako says criticising someone for their general spelling mistakes is unacceptable, but it's alright to call someone an illiterate baboon for choosing an american spelling.

there's no law that says words have to spelt in a particular way. American and British spelling is only part of it.

who am I to say that somebody is an impost[b]er[/b] or an impost[/b]or[/b]? You'll find both spellings routinely used. Neither is 'right' or 'wrong'.

Be not lost so poorly in thy thoughts.Thou hast spelt impostor most egregiously with a knavish measure of B's.

"Correct" spelling, indeed, is one of the arts that are far more esteemed by schoolma'ams than by practical men, neck-deep in the heat and agony of the world” - N.Bonaparte

Tim, if your wife thinks chopsticks are for peasants, you should send her to a re- education camp. Nothing like an uppity Chinese wife with no clue.

Damn right. Singapore is full of 'new money' chinese who display some rather crass behaviour now they have a few dollars in their little claws.

Wooo...wife insults now!

The plot sickens...
