I quite like to imagine him having a few people over for dinner: "Oh, sorry, I'm afraid my indescribably perfect Japanese flatware costs $8,000 for a fork so I could only buy two. The rest of you can just use your hands, but you're welcome to admire my fork for a moment if you wish to..."
- paulcole 10y agoIt's funny to me because this definition of "best" is more like "nicest looking/fanciest/most expensive I could google."
- erroneousfunk 10y agoMan, that is some ugly flatware. I have some 10 year old flatware that I picked up from a yard sale in college. I'm pretty sure it's just as dependable and useful as his... While I completely understand the maniacal pursuit of "the best" (I've developed obsessions with mattresses, digital cameras, and shaving razors at various points in my life) deeply caring about every single one of your possessions seems way more exhausting than it's worth.
