HEPO - Chapter 12: Can't We Have A Meal In Peace?

"No, I've said it before, it's physiologically impossible," Osar argued while holding a chopstick in his hand. "Look at how thick my fingers are plus the pads; it's impossible to use these sticks to pick up food. So, it's perfectly fine for me to use my hands!"
