I don't know why, but I keep them.

It's a nice, subtle "fuck you" to guests you don't really like

Okay, but I would totally wield the forkchaku.

sadly there are no stealth edits on lemmy, even if you hit edit the second you posted your comment to fix a typo it's going to show up

Thanks. That's some tasty info, gonna need this when forging my own forks in the post-apocalyptic nightmare hellscape we're going to enter in the next few decades.

Decades obviously I won't have even gave a downloaded Wikipedia, I'll just go by drunk memories. And thus this will be there somewhere.

This is to cutlery what anti-homeless park benches are to seating

[–] kevincox@lemmy.ml 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

The biggest question is this a fork or a threek?

[–] otter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

If it's named after the sound it makes when you unknowingly encounter it teeth first?

"Skheek" with an emphasis on the k-k-k-k-k.
