How on earth does one measure granulated tea/coffee etc with a fork or a STAPLER?!?
- thunderbong 4y agoI'm assuming for the fork, people use the handle. And for the stapler, they can open it and use the lower section as a makeshift spoon. Either way, since there's not much of a 'bowl' in any of those, one can only get a few grains of sugar out each time. As a person who's done this before with a fork, I can tell you it's extremely frustrating and time consuming (and that's why it's frustrating!)

- ncmncm 4y agoBottom of the lower jaw is often concave. Would use one, in a pinch. Come civilizational collapse, we will all be measuring out ... something ... with staplers. If we're lucky. Invest in renewables!
- Someone 4y agoI fear the spring in the stapler won’t be strong enough, but try this: open stapler, remove staples, pour in ground coffee, press tight, close stapler. Now, every press of the stapler will dispense one staple-size of coffee. Only 100+ presses for a cup of coffee :-) For sugar, pour in a saturated sugar solution and let it dry. You could also 3D-print sugar staples with saturated sugar water. That might have a slightly better chance of working.
