Standard silverware sorting sorrows 13:05

It's knife, fork, spoon isn't it? isn't it?
Left to right - Knife. Fork. Spoon.
I just want to know that i have your agreement here.

Further to my brush with the cutlery ninja (spoonless-in-spoon-filled-world), I find myself yet again in a rage over eating implements.

It seems that due to some bizarre twist of reality that someone at my place of work doesn't agree with the standard order of the universe and refuses to conform.

Upon opening the cutlery drawer at my place of work the other day I was not only surprised to find some cutlery actually in there (and not festering within the realms of the interior of the dishwasher) but I was confused, confounded and consternated by the vision before me.  The forks were on the left.  The knives were in the middle.  The spoons were in their normal place on the right hand side of the plastic retaining container (good old trustworthy spoons).

Furiously, I slammed the drawer closed, alerting all and sundry to my displeasure in this sorting aberration.
And that's when it all became clear.

There was a label on the drawer.  A small plastic label.

The label showed a fork, a knife and a spoon in that order.

You win label, you win.

Man in the office #1 14:55

*Early Bowie voice required*

Man in the office with the crazy hair,
I'm glad you show such passion and flair.
No wonder people trip over your chair
Seeing your head, one needs to stare.

Did you come here by motorbike?
Helmetted down to your collar.
a victim of a balloony strike?
you static-ey mulletted feller.

Man in the office with the crazy hair,
looking like a greased up bear.
Man in the office with the crazy hair,
living life without a care.

Smashing up old sofas is very stress relieving.

Go, do it now.
