Lightbulb Name that implement

I have heard of a combination Spoon and Fork called a "Spork".

Does that mean that this is a "Forpener"?

The entire trailer is multi-function!
It costs $$$ to buy it
It costs $$$ to insure and register it each year
It costs $$$$ to maintain it
It costs $$$$ to tow it
It costs mega - giga- $$$$ to go on ferries with it
It costs $$$$ to park it at a campground for a night
It costs time & effort to scrub & shine it up
It costs time & $$$ to upgrade it
It costs anxiety and worry to park it
It costs .... (etc)

It fulfills MANY functions - but the function is fulfills best is transferring $$$$ from my wallet to someone else's!

It also makes me examine things very closely - and so it teaches some truths as well, some of which are "counter-intuitive"

In my case, I find that the larger the trailer and the bigger the tug, the more I am inclined to overlook all the $$$$ implications of owning things like that. YMMV

The bottle opener/fork reminded me of a little ditty my dad used to recite.........

I eat my peas with honey
I've done it all my life
It makes the peas taste funny
But it keeps them on the knife.

Around here nearly all containers for drinkables have deposits and return values - keeps the litter under control. (yes, even those cardboardy-looking juice containers, pop cans & bottles, as well as beer, wine & liquor bottles/cans) As I recall when I grew up - it was beer bottles only that us kids searched for and returned for bubblegum money!

nothing had deposit wheni was a kid, and the woods was full of trash from careless people. i hate the deposits, but love that its now not as common to find beer cans in the woods.
