My wife bought new salad cutlery and because of the weird number of arms on the fork my first impulse was "that's AI". Which of course doesn't make sense because I was holding the object in my hands.
@tante Can a fork be polydactyl?
@tante “Fuck Everything, We’re Doing Five [Tines]” https://theonion.com/fuck-everything-were-doing-five-blades-1819584036/
@tante perfect gift for your polydactyl friend.
@tante this is a classic "Keith Richards" 5-string mongrel. Good for blues.
@tante
You missed 3D printing I think
@tante
Are... YOU... the AI?
And the counting of the tines shall be three. Five, is right out!
The correct number of fingers for once, though.
I'm ok with threeks, but fivks are right out!
@tante
That's no Fork -- that's a FIVEK!
@tante
Hear, hear. I'm unfortunately rather familiar with "that's AI" being applied to real life stuff like objects, situations, etc.
My kids regularly apply it to me, when I forget the car keys or let out a lamer-than-usual dad joke or whatever.
"Dad's AI!"
@tante You never know, probably AI helped with design.
@tante that is one *tiny* fork ok I'll show myself out
@tante
Came here for Matrix jokes. Leaving diappointed. (Only 1 joke and nobody seems to get it...)
@brandonscript @tante I don't like it!/😭
Manufactured with AI…
@tante das ist ja schon ein Kamm
@tante
I've got four candles to sell you.
@tante Presenting: turbo forks. Now with 25% more salad stabbing power.
@tante
Oh, that's uncomfortable to look at.
@tante (pssssst… they’re called tines [ta-eens])
@tante That is an odd (literally) number of tines
Are you sure it isn't a teeny tiny pitchfork?
Wait until your wife discovers sardine forks 🤯😱
@tante Your photo is AI !! Liar !! 😂
@tante In France, we call this "une fourchette". But obviously, this is "une fivechette"
@tante Forks should have four tines. Four. It’s right there in the name.
@tante Are 5 tines any better than 4? Do they allow for larger bites? More mashed potatoes and more peas to be pushed onto them?
@tante Kill it with fire
hey, just thought you'd want to know, those arms are called tines. i still think it's AI
@tante instead of a fourchette you have a fivechette
@tante biblicaly accurate fork 🤣
@tante If you find yourself holding this, count your fingers.
tech giving the poor people ptsd
It's a sign of the tines.
@tante The arms are called "tines"!
@researchfairy Thank you for answering the question in my head. It's "Zinken" in German btw.
@tante
@tante There is no spoon!
