Three pizza cutter handles I made for my former boss. Purpleheart, mahogany, and a laminate of black walnut, maple and cherry. Finished with polyurethane for durability.

This is the reality in which we live.

Railing against it, which perfectly sensible,will accomplish nothing.

(This having been said, I really hope that the video above was intended to be satire. Albeit in extremely poor taste. And THAT having been said, even i we assume this to be true, I know that there will be legions of viewers who fail to appreciate that subtlety, and take it at face value.)

Apparently, it was satire, lifted from a site called “The Stately Harold” and turned into a video. Might be worth a grin to check out that website.

Thus the character Cassidy Boon – who has her own Twitter account and is the author of other controversially-sounding satire pieces including Why male suicides do not matter as much as female ones and Why it’s okay for women to cheat on their boyfriends – is more than likely a pseudonym rather than an actual person and it is rather unlikely that she (or he) genuinely believes in the ideas they describe they assert.
Someone was sufficiently incensed by the video that she started a petition on change.org to have Cassidy Boon jailed.

Even with all of the insanity around us, I have a hard time believing that anyone could be daft enough to make that sort of claim seriously.

For starters, no tort lawyer would take on such a case.

Very nice.
Have you made any that are just oiled wood a la cutting board style? I bet they'd develop a nice hand patina.

I ended up seeing few linked articles when I first saw this story. I remember one or two of the articles had what looked like official documents from the initial complaint.

No, I have not. I was worried that the wood would get nasty, and someone would try to stick it in a dishwasher.
