Romancing an onion..

Am I the last person in the world to have found out that a little ambiance will save me from the agony of onion tears?
In case there is still one of you left, here is the magical trick that has eluded me all my life:

No. more. tears.

Mom? Dad? I was 24 years old when I finally learned the whole righty-tighty, lefty-loose thing.
But I'm not sure I can forgive you for this one.
