The bright red rubbery utensil meant for scraping cake mix and gravy out of bowls. What is that? This really is my kitchenware. I’ll put it whatever side you say.

        I’m gonna break one of my rules and explain my joke …
        Where I live, the things behind it are spatulas. And so is the red rubber thing. And they are clearly not the same.
        … So that’s funny. Err … well I think its funny. I’m not very funny.

    The metal things beneath it are spatulas. The red doohickey is a rubber scraper.

    If you wouldn’t use it to flip a pancake, it’s not a spatula.

      This is my favorite. My utensil is hereby declared to be a Pan Licker.

      I guess I get to put it in whatever drawer I want. It’s the only Pan Licker I’ve got. No rules!

    It’s a spoonula!

    They’re great for all sorts of things in the kitchen. The black ones, however, do not belong in the kitchen.
    Not because of the black plastic controversy, but because if you’ve ever thwacked someone/something/yourself with a spoonula, you know that you need one in the bedroom, and if you only use black ones for that purpose, then you never ‘cross the streams.’ A … uh. friend introduced me to that rule over a decade ago, and now I bequeath that knowledge to you all.

      I acknowledge that this is spoonula thing is happening … but its madness.
      I don’t entirely understand, and something in me rebels against doing so.

    I’d put it with the tongs. If you’re just trying to grab a spatula without looking, you don’t want the dough scraper. Same logic for spoons, the scraper won’t do. So you put it with the weirdos in the bottom section.

    It’s a spoontula, cousin of the spork. It is created when a spoon and a spatula love each other enough to transcend reality. Just don’t ever let two spoontulas stay in one area as they’re very territorial and will attack each other. That’s how the spoon drawer gets all messed up.
