    My mother saw 15 seconds of an episode of Digimon episode and decided it was satanic. Pokemon too. She banned that entire channel on Saturday mornings.

      These plastic things have been coming in the package when you buy kiwifruit (at least here in NZ) for yonks: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CGN35968

      Some debate though as to whether that’s a knifoon or a 'spife' though :)

    In german forks are feminine and spoons are masculine. I hope speaking German isn’t satanic for having trans-utensils.

          It sounds Satanic but when you actually hear Satanic chants/rites/etc. they’re usually in Latin. If someone were to make a language that mixed Germanic and Romance sources, then, it would truly be the language of evil.

        In German it’s called “Der Göffel” a mix of “Der Löffel” (spoon) and “Die Gabel” (fork). So it’s masculine from the Löffel part.

        It’s funny how the word mix is backwards in German/English. English has fork at the end of the word and German spoon.

    From the very beginning, God has held us back and punished us for trying to reach our full potential. Satan, on the other hand, has only tried to give us truth and knowledge.

    Hmm. Come to think of it, that explains a lot of Christian Conservatism.

    Hail Satan.

    for many years [the fork] was viewed as an unmanly Italian affectation. Some writers of the Roman Catholic Church expressly disapproved of its use; St. Peter Damian seeing it as “excessive delicacy”.

      Who are you, the British Empire, coming to colonize and suppress noun gender??

      I’ll have you know that you will never* remove gender from waterborne vessels on Wikipedia. None of them is referred to as “it”; all are referred to as “she”.

    Is it toxic that I kind of agree with her? The main difference being that “satanic” is a compliment in my world.

        Yeah they are. Except for like stews and whatnot I think.

        I haven’t used them really, just bought them as a joke for like 20 cents. I mean wouldn’t be bad if I went hiking but for that I think I’d get a plastic/silicon spork with a knife.

    First, this is not a “spork” but a Fpoon.

    Then as others have pointes it out, other languages give them different gender. In French, a spoon and a fork are feminine nouns. So this is also a lesbian icon.
