It’s not even a real fork. It is a spork. It came with a salad I ordered when I was with my family at Silverwood last weekend. The fact that it is made of plastic, I can understand. But it was also quite small, no larger than a pen. The tines were short, not very good for spearing salad. It also had a hinge, so it could fold it half and become even smaller, I assume for packaging purposes.
That characteristic would have been mildly amusing if it didn’t mean the slight pressure I applied in my attempts to gather food made it fold and become even more useless. Despite its complete failure, I kept it. It’s useless, but rather small and adorable when I’m not trying to eat with it.

The convergence is happening. Try not to be too frightened.
