    I snap them in half over my leg while pretending I'm Bane.

    Mostly because otherwise the entire noodles won't completely fit in the pot and I want them to cook evenly.

    But then how would I wrap them around my fork 100 times?

    Why do people say pasta noodles?! xD

    Sometimes I do sometimes I don't! If I'm being lazy I usually will, if not then I just push it into the pan.

    No! How dare people do this! Also, it depends on my mood. Sometimes I feel like breaking spaghetti... in half. Like sausages.

    No is the only reasonable response.

    If you break spaghetti in front of me, I'll break your neck. Dirty heathens.

    Yes. I break noodles. A.) I don't have a pot big enough. B.) That's just how we've always done it. And C.) I mostly make Poppy's Spaghetti when my daughter is here, so it's easier for her to eat it when the noodles are short.

    Also.... PASTA NOODLES

    I don't have a pot big enough either. So I put as much of the noodles in as I can and as they cook and get softer, I push the lower halves in (kind of twirl them in actually) and then the rest goes in and cooks. I've never had a problem with uneven cooking or anything that way

    Yep, the 5-10 seconds it takes to push them in as they go soft isn't enough to cause any kind of noticeable unevenness in the spaghetti.
