The Fork and the Butterknife
December 28th 2006 01:45
The fork tumbled down over the plates and other cutlery, clinking into the sink below.
"Hello there!" said the butterknife in a rather jovial fashion.
"Er, hello" replied the fork.
"New here, eh?"
"Yes. I am". The two implements laid side by side in the sink.
"Well, I suppose I should let you know - you might want to hold your breath for this bit!"
"Er, why?" asked the fork. But before the butterknife could answer, a great torrent of water came gushing down on top of them, followed by an immense amount of crockery.
The fork tried to scream as it was crushed under the plates and cups. But the water was coming too fast, and it only managed to gurgle in a panic-stricken fashion. Then a great big hand plunged into the water next to it and started to swirl everything around. The fork felt dizzy. And next thing it knew it was up in the air, out of the claustrophobic sink, and being dried with a fine towel.
With a rattle and a clink, the fork fell into a basket, next to the butterknife again.
"Feel clean now old chap?" asked the butterknife with a chuckle.
"That was fucking ridiculous" replied the fork.
