Where on earth do they get the 'AYD' from?

Seems like spifk, sporf, or knorkoon might be more sensible.

[–] Zikeji@programming.dev 26 points 7 months ago

I'm unsure if the original inventor is still alive for you to ask that question, but let us know the answer if you do get it.

[–] turbowafflz@lemmy.world 8 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I would guess because it sounds kind of like blade just spelled differently

[–] CileTheSane@lemmy.ca 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Okay, so we have SpoonBlade, but where's the Fork?

This checks out, mum gave me a set of splayds when I moved out of home and we're Australian. I love them but my fiance refuses to use them.

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 3 points 7 months ago

Your fiance knows neither taste nor balance.

There's also this version

Funny, i seem to have worked in software dev so long, that my brain started working like a simple loop.

Run until condition fails, then exit. never check the rest. :)

[–] CaptainBlagbird@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

SPORFE

Much more accurate.

[–] Jeraxus@lemmy.sdf.org 12 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

Why is there a "L" in splayd?

[–] BradleyUffner@lemmy.world 11 points 7 months ago

Or any of the letters after "L" for that matter...

[–] dual_sport_dork@lemmy.world 12 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Well, I can at least claim that I can legitimately claim an oft-unused spot on this diagram through being one of the probably select few who has ever put an edge on a spoon.

Look, some of us have a brand to maintain, you know?

Also, perhaps now is a good time to dredge up this.

[–] silasmariner@programming.dev 3 points 7 months ago

I appreciate your service

[–] can@sh.itjust.works 11 points 7 months ago

Spife up your life

I own multiple knorks. I like their balance and construction: https://a.co/d/drHe7uh

Ah, blessed be the almighty Foon. Nameless Mod was a absolute ride, I should replay it.

Knasty Knork

The knife does not mesh well with the others unless you enjoy cutting your mouth up. There's a reason we only have the spork.

[–] MehBlah@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

Don't bring a splayd to a spork fight.

[–] MudMan@fedia.io 2 points 7 months ago

I argue that everything inside the knife circle is just a knife.

Except the Splayd, perhaps. Which is just a spork.

Looks like discord with a green background
