May 24 2009Finally: A Venn Diagram Of Hybrid Cutlery
This is a Venn Diagram of hybrid cutlery. As you can see in the middle, the splayd incorporates all three standard eating utensils in one, high questionable design. Of course, I wouldn't want to eat cereal with it. Or you. YOU'RE DRIBBLING MILK ON MY CARPET YOU HEATHEN!

Thanks to Andrew, who eats with his hands because he's an animal.

I don't even know how to use the spoon, and they come up with new stuff?
C'mon, my hands are enough

A better combination of the three inner names would have been "KNIFE".
6. uchar - May 24, 2009 1:11 PM

"splayd" combines the words "spoon" and "blade".

At least half of those look dangerous to eat with. Still, pretty cool.

The splayd is the most amazing piece of cutlery EVAR. My Auntie brought some back from Australia in the 70s and they're wonderful. WONDERFUL!
19. Brittney - May 24, 2009 6:34 PM
I live in Australia and I use a splayd with practically every meal. I got a really nice set of twelve a couple of years ago and now I never eat with forks anymore.
SPLAYDS ARE AWESOME!!!
also it gets its name from sp (spoon) and also the rest of it sounds like blade (knife). though i dont know where fork comes in.
im glad someone made this venn diagram :)

knife in your mouth..? not a good idea.
why so serious?
23. Daisy - May 25, 2009 8:56 AM
FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.
This is exactly like thatmovie Never Back Down where Max and Baja picked up the laundry, and asked the guy behind the counter how he managed to get the clothes so soft. He said it was an Ancient Chinese Secret, and at that same moment his wife yelled from the back "we need more calgon" which prompeted Baja to ask, Ancient chinese secret, huh? They all had a laugh, and ended up in a groovy chinese laundry orgy.
