   @monkeyben @TheBreadmonkey @photovotary no. A fork has 4 tines, so obviously three tines is for a threek

     Three prongs is a trident, not a fork!

     Lol. I don't mind this sort of thing! This is perfectly reasonable! I have a fork I despise. It's people who find fault in the innocuous. Like if someone says they like a picture of a flower and someone responds with something insane like...

     'That flower is actually worse than Hitler because it's responsible for the near extinction of a slightly different native flower, like the invasive American signal crayfish, introduced to the UK for farming, now thriving in rivers and canals, outcompeting native white-clawed crayfish and carrying the deadly crayfish plague. Is that what you want? Crayfish Hitler? Is that what you want? The death of all plant life and river dwellers. You bastard!'

     This wasn't a good example actually. It would have been easier for me to just say it was someone defending JD Vance by saying we shouldn't joke about him having sex with a sofa when he apparently actually didn't. Never mind it just being a bit of fun perpetrated against a person who is 89% lie - a person who is in effect sentencing people to death. I for one shall carry on making jokes about him. I don't think it goes far enough to say he had sex with a settee. I shall say he has sex with all furniture and is particularly fond of a wicker chair.

     @TheBreadmonkey You know what really annoys me? The way those little plastic seals on bottle tops have a perforated area but when you try to pull it off, it doesn't tear straight! Aaargh! 😡 (jk)

     With all that is awful about everything I'm thrilled to report some people on Fedi are still able to surprise me with some of the mad things they're annoyed about
