A major difference between my wife and I:

  • I spent 10 minutes banging a wooden spoon on a standard kitchen knife trying to open a coconut. I give up after the wooden spoon disintegrates, the coconut still closed.

  • My wife comes into the kitchen and swings the same knife at the coconut a few times. Less than a 30 seconds later, we have access to coconut water.

I'll see how long it takes her to open one from the mostly-original state next time we're in the kitchen.
