‘Admiral Bleeberboss, have you seen the footage on the American news?’

‘Lieutenant Grognak, it’s all going according to plan.’

‘What plan? Your joyriding son getting caught repeatedly is a plan?’

‘Of course not! There’s a grand plan you are ignorant of. Why do you think we sponsored so many seasons of X files and are even now pushing for the reboot? The success of the plan hinges on spoon feeding the ignorant fools that our existence is possible.

‘And Grognak, since you seem to care so much, you are now responsible for my son’s poor behaviour. Dismissed!’

‘Yes, Admiral.

‘Blekkenblart.’

G’day. Today let’s talk about the most mischievous character in your cutlery drawer — the spoon.

If you randomly ask 100 shoppers in a local grocery store, the most common answer involves threats to call the constabulary. Aside from that, people feel forks and knives are the worst of the lot because of sharp and pointy bits. And it is possible to get the rare misbehaving troublemaker. But spoons are psychotic, so they’re designed without edges. Good thing too. Know why all the hinges in your house work? Spoons can’t access them to pry them off.

Household Item Wrangler, signing off.
