  1. I don’t understand humans anymore.
    You take care of your body, clean your house but when it comes stuff like this, we are getting lazier.

    I know how to sharpen my kitchen knives. It takes time and practice but nowadays, people are lazy.

  3. I wish they had that in school when I grew up we’d go in the front and sharpen off some old sharpener in front of a chalkboard that made a lot of noise and sometimes it would make the tip loose so you’d go back and sharpen it multiple times….so embarrassing and annoying
