Fuck you & fuck this insulting post.

#2

[–] epique@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

1 and if we're being really picky I want the top of one and the handle from 5

I want to say 2 because longest fork depth, but 4 has that round mouth feel with still good fork depth without being too aggressive about the curvature like 5. The thicker outer prongs grip slippery/heavy food better too.

I'm going 4.

Also because 2 has that annoying fin. The worst forks do that, and also curve down. Hurts my hands, but I'm a giant with bear paws so YMMV.

[–] Siegfried@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

3 looks better balanced and crafty enough. 5 looks like a dessert fork

Many go for 2, but they are just thinking about using it, not cleaning it. More surface to clean plus extra volume which fills quicker the place where forks, knives and spoons are stored till they dry

1 is too bended.

I don't like any of them

[–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 4 points 17 hours ago

This feels like a reverse Avatar test for autism

[–] vrojak@feddit.org 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Number 5 is the best, fight me. The wide, rounded handle provides a comfortable grip, and the slightly shorter prongs, combined with the bulge on the outer ones give it a friendly look. You don't want to put some aggressive looking stabbing device like the disgusting number 2 into your mouth do you? Where all the soft, vulnerable stuff is? Come on. And don't get me started on the handle of number 3, that is just atrocious, way to thin and I can already feel it digging into my skin when just trying to apply modicum of rotational force into my food.

1 feels like home, 4 and 5 is too fancy, 2 just feels right enough to stab at my enemy.

I choose 2.

[–] prettybunnys@sh.itjust.works 4 points 21 hours ago

4 has the best handle, 2 has the best fork

[–] 5too@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Everyone is busily selecting a fork, and I'm trying to figure out if the apostrophe was an intentional troll ..

[–] hmmm@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 day ago
[–] Tanuki@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 day ago

None of these, I refuse to use forks, only sporks.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 4 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

1, obviously. 4 and 5 are equally obvious trash. 2 is okay but its handle is malformed and ugly.

3 is acceptable for someone with different, smaller hands.

On second thought, I rescind my general critique of 2. The overly wide bottom might be helpful to people with trouble grasping implements, but in that case the tines are too long.

[–] bluegreenwookie@bookwormstory.social 4 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I dont like any of them but if i had to pick: 2. I like the prongs. But I don't like the handles for any of them

1 is the one you leave in the drawer till it's the last one or use for stuff you don't want to risk your other forks for...

[–] MashedTech@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

2, but I feel like none is good enough. Or sturdy enough. I need 2, but thicker body

[–] oppy1984@lemm.ee 4 points 2 days ago

Came here thinking I'd be the odd man out by saying #2, I'm pleasantly surprised.

[–] wanderwisley@lemm.ee 4 points 2 days ago

2! No other answer is correct!

[–] Worx@lemmynsfw.com 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

None of them; my forks are best

Anyone interested in developing a "Find your ideal fork" web app?

I for one would be very interested to see statistical preferences...

It probably says a lot about me to be able to articulate this, but it's 100% 3 because of the way the head has a low flare leading to a high taper. The others are all way too flat or round, save for 1, but it's out because the spaces between the tines terminate too high.

And no, I don't have a reason for this, it's entirely based on how I feel about forks.

[–] argarath@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Handle of number 1, prongs of number 2.

[–] DesolateMood@lemm.ee 3 points 2 days ago

2 is such an obvious answer

[–] MoreFPSmorebetter@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 days ago

5 and I know this because it's the fork that lives in my room at all times because it's my favorite fork and I don't like when someone else dirties it or misplaces it. It's my desk fork. Always ready for leftovers or door dash. It's the perfect fork.

[–] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 days ago (2 children)

My fingies hurt just looking at them. Half of them will bend when cutting a banana, and the other half will split your skin when you try.
