The spork

Haven't seen them in years.
Have they been quietly outlawed like the lawn dart?
Maybe an urban achiever sporked someone in the lunch room.

If you needed to could you spork someone to death?
I just like the name.
Genius. Pure genius.

I always liked sporks. I think my mom still has some. The best thing you could use for eating stew. I kinda like them called foons, too.

Sporks are alive and well nationwide in the cafeterias of public schools

Sporks are indeed alive and well. Some fast food places in the US still use them. They are also very popular with the camping/backpacking crowd. They even have titanium versions for those backpackers who count every last ounce they carry.
