Here’s some entertainment for your next dinner party (or forthcoming holiday meal): spoon bending. I’d probably ask to be seated with the skeptics—having never beheld the live psychic art of spoon bending. Although it’s got to be loads of fun to try. And apparently parties are the ideal setting, according to both Fork You Step-by-Step (Step 2: The Party) and the RealityShifters How to Host A Spoon Bending Party page.

The skeptics have a play by play breakdown of how the dark, handsome psychic superstar, Uri Geller, cheats at it. I’m not so convinced. Ironically, their proof is about as convincing as the video stills presented as “evidence” of UFO phenomenon. You decide. The point is almost irrelevant, as Fork You makes a clear point that one must put a little effort into the initial bend.

It’s difficult to discern how honest the folks are at Fork You. Yet they certainly have an appealing gallery of bent forks to inspire you for your next social function. See also: A spoon-bending party hosted by University of Arizona psychology professor Gary Schwart.

And meethinks it utterly appropriate to end this article with this quote from The Matrix—

“Do not try and bend the spoon. That’s impossible. Instead … only try to realize the truth.”

“What truth?”

“There is no spoon.”

“There is no spoon?”

“Then you’ll see that it is not the spoon that bends, it is only yourself.”
