I was, at one time, rather proficient with chopsticks. I could eat anything with them. Went to a Japanese Hibachi House recently and nearly starved to death trying to eat my rice with them.

I can't eat rice with chopsticks....ever

Depends on what I'm eating.
With stir-fry (i.e. - pretty much pre-cut), I enjoy the precision that the two sticks offer.
But sticks would not be my choice for a bowl of linguine or plate of lasagna. Or intact tasty critter.
Big fan of foregoing utensils entirely.

Possibly easier than the fork.
But can you split the meat with them?
Didn't try -- didn't need to. That said, I'd struggle to do that with my right hand. 🙄
I asked because a buddy of mine was showing off and he was splitting the meat and picking up rice one piece at a time. While I was in my corner shoveling everything in with a fork, lol.
Excited to be in Athens tonight to celebrate the Dawgs winning the title in Indy on Monday night!

Howdy, howdy boys and girls. Happy Friday again!
Happy Three Day weekend, I hope!
I may or may not have to go in tomorrow to help with a project... thus far, they have it covered without me. 
Glorious day at work. Weekend crew came in... I got to ignore the production floor and actually do my own job for a day. It was lovely.
Pay Day for both DW and I today... today is her first "full" paycheck... darn near 150% of her former "full" paycheck.
Rain this evening, turning into snow overnight. Yeehaw!
Y'all behave!
That is a nice salary bump.
And I'll only behave to the extent that I avoid aggravating my arm fracture.
Today, milk was once again available in the DC area grocery stores. It had been absent for the better part of a week
Normally I wouldn't much mind, but I'm upping my calcium intake over the next month or two, and milk is, for me, easier than broccoli.
