Subject: What's the point of ginger?

I just finished my lunch which was sushi from a local "grocery store" and as most sushi it has fresh ginger peels with it.  Should I eat the ginger with the shrimp rolls, eat it before, or after, or is it just for looks?  Any sushi gurus that can help me with this?

Before, during, after.

It's a digestive and it's yummy.

Ding ding ding! We have a winner!

That's right, it cleanses the palate between bites.

Also, a good way to eat the wasabi (waaaasssssaaaaabbbbbiiiiii) is to stir it in with your soy sauce and then dip the sushi right in.

Okay, something about the tone of that in my head had me cracking up. You teh funny.

Unh. "Waaaaaaaasssaaaabbbbiiiiiii" is so, like, 2003. You are not the new hotness.

You had your .15 seconds of fame, and you blew it.

In addition to the palate cleansing, I think its one of those things that is really good for you. Thats cool cause I actually love it and most of the things that are good for you I don't really like.

It's also British slang for homosexual.

Dammit!

I guess I'm not cool anymore (because I was way cool back in 1988!). I actually gave some kid on the train sh!t the other day for being rude to a woman which probably made me very uncool in his eyes. Well, I didn't really give him sh!t per se, I told him to do something and he did it. I do enjoy the power that age confers.
