Sauce Dispensing Chopsticks




Okay, Japan is always leading the world's innovated thinking ciriculum, churning out both amazing stuff no one would ever think of, and also stuff that is just a sorry excuse for lazy people who lack motivation to stay right where they are. This one falls into the latter.

It seems that there are now chopsticks for around $21, if anyone wants to actually spend that kind of money on an eating utensil, that will dispense sauce on your food for you. What does this mean? Since it's such a pain in the rear to pick up your sushi, dip it into some sauce, then bring the peice of fish to your mouth, the Japanese have taken it upon themselves to now allow you to skip half that process! Just let the chopsticks do all that work for you and you'll be on your way to a lazier lifestyle.
Now, I'm probably one of those people who would actually buy something like this just for the novelty of it, that is, if I had the money to just toss away like that. I suppose it's a good thing to have if you're in a terrible rush, but considering that the Japanese don't typically scarf down their food, my hypothesis kind of bites the dust.

Review for Rosetta Stone

I told you I wasn’t gone for good! Today I’m going to be mostly bashing Rosetta Stone’s language learning software. This review goes for Rosetta Stone whether you’re learning Japanese or any other language that this software purports to teach. It purports to teach because Rosetta Stone is particularly bad at teaching anything, except how to look at pictures and repeat words. It’s aimed mostly for travelers, but doesn’t really get you conversing, and it’s expensive to boot. Really, there’s only a couple things it does well, but this isn’t enough to make up for all the failing this software does. If anyone from Rosetta Stone actually reads this, please use the criticism to improve your software! You probably already know that Rosetta Stone teaches you language easily, right? I mean, that’s what the advertisements always tell us! What Rosetta Stone tells us and what it actually does are like night and day, but if you really don’t know much about Rosetta Stone, here’s what allegedl...

Review for LingQ - Redone!

I really wanted to do a review for LingQ , and I wound up doing a long and crazy post about things that didn't have much to do with LingQ. As such, I am redoing this post in hopes of better clarifying what LingQ is and how well it works. For starters, anyone even remotely familiar with Steve Kauffman will know that he's a huge supporter of what is normally called the input method. That basically means that you learn a language simply through exposure to it. No grammar drills, just listening, reading, and anything else you can think of that will expose you to the language. As such, that is exactly what LingQ strives to do. The most frustrating thing about learning an Asian language through the input method, in my opinion, is that if you're reading a book or a non-editable pdf, if you come across a kanji you're not sure how to read, you can't just type it into a dictionary. That frustrates me a lot! That's why LingQ is so good about that. You just hover your mou...

Friday Review: Chrono Trigger

This is a really great game for anyone who likes a good story to be told! It has an intriguing plot, interesting characters, and great gameplay. This game has been hailed many times as one of the greatest RPGs ever! It's techinically for SNES, but you can now find it for the Nintendo DS. This review is for the SNES version and the Playstation remake only, as I have never played the DS version and am unsure as to whether gameplay elements have been changed or not. Plot Overview: Crono, a young man, has been placed in a situation where he must travel through time to save the world, in each and ever era, from certain destruction. It’s very complicated to explain, but trust me, the plot is very good and well-thought-out. Artwork: The artwork looks a lot like DBZ, but I don’t care. If you look really closely, the artwork is slightly different in the Playstation remake than in the original – the characters are shorter and fatter in the Playstation version, which I found to be kin...
