Ywing Bed

This is a Y-wing Bed.
My two-year-old will want me to build him one for his bedroom–possibly an entire starfleet for when his cousins and/or his best friends spend the night. And while putting his together, the building-supply guy will accidentally drop off a surplus in the form a Queen-sized Y-wing for my bedroom. And I will address my significant other as “Dutch Vander” and scream “O Captain, My Captain” while repeatedly being strafed with his proton torpedo.

There is one drawback: I lack the necessary hand coordination to chopstick efficiently. My friends call me the Bad Asian. I love Asian food and (reading about) Asian culture, but I have no idea how to put any of it into practical use. I found this handy little flier and made several wallet-sized copies to carry around with me and it basically gives me a license to eat sushi my hands:
