In light of the pending resolution concerning the legalisation of Sporks, I implore you, the delegates of the UN to use your votes wisely and back this most worthy of proposals. It would open up a whole new world of commerce, increase competition for more "standard" cutlery and advance the enjoyment of light for billions of people. I cannot stress enough how important it is that this proposal gets through; I shall look forward to seeing you in the General Assembly in coming days!

Being that our national animal is the spork, and our currency is also the spork, we of Sporkopolis have mixed feelings on this issue.

Is this really an international issue? The use of the 'spork' should be decided by the nation itself. With legislation being created to control commerse, this could open the doors for other international regulation. I do not like this proposal, nor will I support it.

The UN needs to ensure that the right to trade isn't restricted and that the populace of Member States is educated in the use of new fangled techonology.

The Holy Empire of Ustasha stands firm in it's support of pro-spork Legislation. I, Emperor Jim, will order my UN Ambassador to vote for all things spork: Free sporks, tax-deductible sporks, and high-technology sporks.

The Holy Empire of Ustasha is a spork-loving nation, and the Ustashans are are a spork-using people, with the exception of several anti-spork resistance factions. I assure you, these anti-spork insurgents shall be hunted down and executed before their dangerious extremist ideas can spread.

I would recommend that sporks be included in all UN food and aid packages, as well as all UN Formal Delegate Meals. It is time this great eating appliance got the respect it deserved.

The Armed Republic of Ejacistan is not a UN member and therefore will not vote. She does, however, urge all voting members to await the results of currently pending studies into the potential military uses (and abuses) of sporks before they cast their votes, lest they inadvertently pave the way for the creation of a massive pool of easily-accessible weaponry for terrorists and other criminals to use against the peace-loving peoples of the world.

The Most Serene Republic of Hyper Evilness would like to echo the Emperor of the Holy Empire of Ustasha's firm pro-spork position! We would also submit to the Ambassador from Sporkopolis that an increase in spork popularity would only increase the popularity of both your national animal and fuel a wide-spread use of your currency!

you got my vote, I consider the Spork to be the Pinnical of Human Spoon based Cutlery, why with a pair of Chopsticks, and a Spork one could easily rule the world, and defeat all teh Iron Chefs.

Bravo on this fine legislation.

I'm not a UN member, so can't vote. But Chezrak is the UN delegate for the region and Exiled Grecians, after much dialougue with Chezrak's ambassador, thinks this is one of the best proposals he could have ever come up with. Therefore I urge all other nations to vote on legalising the Spork.

Being that our national animal is the spork, and our currency is also the spork, we of Sporkopolis have mixed feelings on this issue.
So, we, Papayouki, as our currency and national animal is the Glabazuk.
there's no difference between breeding and banking.
as interests are natural, by self reproduction of your capital, no one can say that our capitalistic system is against the will of god.

Ya gotta love the UN forum. In one thread you have people complaining about the quality of the proposals submitted. Then you have threads like this.

Ah well, I see nothing wrong with this proposal. Approved.

We will gladly support this Enlightened proposal.

Sporks do not work. Because they have holes at the end, they do not scoop well or hold liquid. The tongs are so short, meanwhile, that you cannot impale most solid food. Because it possesses niether the best qualities of a fork nor a spoon, the spork is outlawed in Griffindon.
Those who are found using a spork in public and those whose homes, upon random raids, are found to possess sporks are subject to immediate death penalty without right to trial.
Spork factories are frequently subject to government sanctioned terrorist bombings.

Griffinian UN Representative Ulrich Nelson

The Principality of Desdin0va believes that sporks are the way forward. They have proved to be a versatile and effective item of cutlery and are now standard issue in all army ration packs. Every restaurant, cafe, eatery and suchlike in Desdin0va are legally required to supply sporks with every meal.

Long live the spork!

The Dictatorship of Griffindon threatens war on Desdin0va with use of butterknifes and salad forks.

I propose we make it manditory to put a sharp edge on one side of the spork. this way the spork retains its original prupace as well as that of a knife. this new utinsel could be called the:

spirk
knorn
slicing spork
firn
firoon
or the MVEU "more versified eating utensil"

We in Gurthark are horrified by the abomination that is the word "spork." The proper term is "runcible spoon."

I propose you add a tube down the handle so that one may also use it as a straw!

The spirawk is born!

Billy, please shut up.

On behalf of the Community of Gurthark, I'd like to apologize for Mr. Qi-Duk's outburst. The government of Gurthark has been under a lot of strain recently.

Sincerely,

We the people of Duch Land are decidedly pro-spork.

You have the complete and unwavering support of the Empire of Themanistan.

I am glad to see that the world contains such wide-ranging yet forward thinking nations. As soon as the UN approves this proposal and all free and right-thinking nations accede to Sporkdom, we can diversify and expand our efforts into other areas, creating a cutlery piece for all occasions and states of mind.

Long live the Spork!

Spork, we salute thee! :D
