    So many people are freaking out over the knife sharpening. A) you’re in this picture and you don’t like it B) hand sharpening on a whetstone isn’t necessary for home cooks. Other tools will get you to adequate with a lot less effort, both in learning and using the tools.

    It’s ok to not optimize everything in your life. It’s ok to put your knives in the dishwasher. It’s ok to shave with an electric. It’s ok to not look like or dress like how these sites say you should.

    Edit: jeeze, apparently it’s not ok so much so that it’s ok to imply violence is acceptable against people who put their knives in the dishwasher. I’m pretty grossed out by this interaction and at the people that insist their way of doing something is better, easier, whatever, when I’ve already said no thanks. Ew.
