Spaghetti is the worst pasta shape

I thought long and hard before penning this article, mainly because I have bravely shared my stance on spaghetti noodles with loved ones for years only to be met with middle fingers, people recommending that I seek help, and occasionally being told, "Get the hell out of my house!" 

So, I can only imagine how dark and cold the internet will be after the statements I'm choosing to make, but still, I cannot hold this in any longer, and if you read this with a clear mind, then you would probably agree that spaghetti is by far the worst noodle. Doesn't matter if you buy it from that fancy Whole Foods in the gentrified neighborhood or from the cheap bodega. It doesn't matter if you stumble into a small back street in Venice — catching an Italian grandpa who wakes up at 5:00 a.m. to make a fresh batch of pasta from scratch — or if God took a vacation from heaven to hand deliver you a fresh batch. They suck. Spaghetti noodles suck.
