Aichmophobia: Fear of knives and sharp objects
What is it with people? Someone takes out a pocketknife to cut their own food with and people around them who are trying to pick apart their food freak out? I was in the restroom washing the knife on my multi-tool so that I could cut my orange and a coworker walks in and lumps me in with another coworker who uses a small knife to cut food. The difference is the person never washes the blade. Now if I had done something really absurd-looking like taken a pair of scissors and tried to cut my orange with one of the blades that probably would have been okay. Actually that’s the second time people have made comments like I was endangering others by cutting a piece of fruit. Well I’ve got good company. There is a little 10yr old girl who is being brought up on felony weapons charges for cutting a steak with a steak knife she brought with her to school.
This is a screwball world we live in.
