The Great Fork and Spoon War, known to the forks and spoons as "That time when we didnt have fun" occurred between the galactic years 2467012Fk-90043126548546Fk or 1998-2006. The war started due to a misunderstanding between the forks and spoons; the fork King "Leroy the pointy" sent a telegram to the Spoon leader "Gary the spherical" telling him to "Fork off" as a joke - unfortunately Gary didn't know this and declared war!
