It all depends from which end of your spoon you stir your world:

“””THERE IS NO SPOON”””

You are right, they’re all the same. Fork, knife, spoons, napkins, tongs, tablecloths are flatware. I sit corrected. It couldn’t be clearer.

“The word flatware refers to the implements you use for eating or serving food. When you set the table with spoons, forks, and knives, you grab the flatware from the drawer.

You can also call flatware silverware or cutlery. Sometimes the word means everything you’d use to set the table, including dishes and plates, which is actually its original definition, dating from around 1850. Back then, you might refer to your plates as flatware and call your glasses hollow ware. Today, if your grandpa asks you to bring the flatware to the table, he probably means forks and spoons.” (1)

Or does he? (Bagster™)

I think this suggests we can be lawless regarding words. So when a troll suggests you are full of crap, take a moment to reflect, take no offense, crap in your universe can mean incitefullness, genius, or a really smart feller. A compliment.

So, instead of what I or others may do, continue spreading love and joy as you do. May we learn from you.

If a troll does not understand your crap, he has missed glory. So sad for him. It was his choice.

Learn of the dyemaker’s puffball, for the Creator laughs from the beginning. Give thanks this day:

I lift a piece of hollow ware on high to wish everyone, err, uh, well maybe not the Censors next door, help me Jesus, a glorious Thanks Giving.

We are truly blessed, give thanks.
