I was going to go hunting for the soup spoon joke and there it was, just waiting for me.

I hate that subreddit. The title is obnoxious as fuck and I can never tell if posts there are satirical or just genuinely the most unobservant toddler-brained simpletons on the planet..

It makes the spoon shape with the water.

I bet existence of the universe is like this. Processes we can’t see creates the shape and the flow, and I bet the universe resembles whatever is creating it.

I bet the results of quantum mechanics are just the result of two pricks making very sophisticated fart noises on opposite ends of the universe.

u/Evening-Statement-57 Aug 21 '26

And it gets weirder, you were born when the fart waves touched and you die when they part. Your time and the universes time to exist are the same thing even though the universe appears to keep going when we die. It doesn’t.

Pfffft

No one can prove the contrary.

It's all fractal in the end

No, it’s turtles all the way down.

u/Usual_Office_1740 Aug 22 '26

It's a single turtle. The universe is on It's back.

The whole thing with her fingers is unnecessary. You can see in the first few frames of the video the water is already making that shape, she's not actually doing anything but playing for the video.

One does not "create" physics.

u/GraXXoR Aug 21 '26

There is no spoon.

u/221Blazed Aug 21 '26

It says "created with physics"

It says created with a simple spoon

u/Dark_halocraft Aug 21 '26

I've done it before

My little son showed that to me the other day by using the end part of his toothbrush that has a little suction cup. That was pretty neat.

u/WertyMiniSlime Aug 21 '26

That almost looks like what happens when I try to clean spoons. 💀

I am weirdly aroused right now.

u/47362514736251 Aug 21 '26

What would happen if they used a complicated spoon

I immediately need to try this.

u/ThickMode943 Aug 21 '26
