I can't help but cry

How do you chop your onions? Every time I attempt to cook with onion, which is often, I have to battle the toxic cry machine gas. I have no idea how to make it more bearable. Obviously as pictured above, I wear sunglasses to help filter the amount that can get into my eyes. Michael thinks it's hilarious, hence the picture, but I think it's practical. I've heard of chewing minty gum while you chop, but I've tried with no results. Despite the intense welling up with tears, I will continue to use onion in the name of tasty cooking!
