Your Messenger message:

"Good afternoon, sir Tony.

"I hope you’re having a fine and wonderful Saturday. 🙏 "Sir Tony, if I may, I’d like to share this with you. We’re losing all our forks in our home. "We only now have 2 forks from the several we got. "We can’t rack our brains where we placed it and misplaced it. "This has been happening for months already. "We tried to be logical about this and thought that one of our family members just didn’t took care of our cutleries. "But it’s not even human nature to even think of doing pranks like this that will affect us. If indeed one of our family members just hid or threw the forks away. It’s just so unusual. "Please shed light on this matter. Thank you so much. 🙏"


My reply:

Hello _____

Nine times out of ten, cutlery gets thrown away in the trash along with paper napkins and excess food from plates by persons operating on auto-pilot, i.e. focused on other things or on the next chore they need to do. When unchecked, it becomes a blind habit. 

On a symbolic level, forks represent males/men. What do you think losing forks as Freudian action-slips means?
