@prophet_goddess "makes a square egg"
@00dani @prophet_goddess squegg
@kat @prophet_goddess can i offer you a nice squegg in this trying time
@prophet_goddess practically, how else are you going to stack your eggs?
@prophet_goddess putting an egg cube in my drink like an ice cube
My family had one of these growing up.
I think my parents got it at a white elephant. We certainly never bothered to use it.
@prophet_goddess Mmmm. Cubeification.
@prophet_goddess i might buy this
@prophet_goddess these are fun to use
@prophet_goddess my friend found a l o n g e g g maker in a charity shop and i have never been more thrilled
@prophet_goddess maybe the world is finally ready for the egg cube—and its superior variant, the Eggsicle
It's hip to be square
@prophet_goddess “Screw top down until egg becomes square” sounds like what the grumps did to me in childhood.
@prophet_goddess @halcy this is affecting me like I’ve seen scientific proof of something from a fever dream, I think either I saw the ad or a relative owned one
@prophet_goddess @halcy have confirmed that my family actually owned one of these
@prophet_goddess I need this in my life. I requires an egg to b e c o m e square
@prophet_goddess I feel you'd love fruit moulds. https://www.ifitshipitshere.com/fruit-mould-makes-buddha-pears-square-watermelons-heart-apples/
@prophet_goddess Miracles of the space age: stackable eggs!
@prophet_goddess this was me in 2019
@prophet_goddess When I was 8 I bought one of these for a nickel at a church thrift sale. I made square eggs at every opportunity. The Egg Cuber left my life about a year later at a garage sale. It's like a fever dream.
@prophet_goddess I know what I'm asking for for my birthday.
@prophet_goddess I just have one question: why? What's the point of doing that?
@Wrath @prophet_goddess i had that thing as a child and all i can say is: square eggs! what's not to love about that? ☺
@prophet_goddess i loved this when I was little.
i spent so many hours becoming a square
@prophet_goddess if bad kids get put into the pear wiggler, do good kids get an egg cuber?
@prophet_goddess squegg
@prophet_goddess i would like an square egg
@prophet_goddess “Best results if EGG CUBER has been chilled”. Using “best” in the very broadest sense of the word, there
@prophet_goddess holy shit my grandma actually had one of these because my mom remembers it
@prophet_goddess but why?! So you can stack them?
@prophet_goddess I don't really eat eggs anymore, but this sounds interesting.
@prophet_goddess My absolute favorite part of this is the implication that it needs no use cases to sell. Like, you already know you want square eggs, this is what makes it happen. Go get it.
@prophet_goddess With the german youth magzine #Yps, "the machine to make quadratic eggs" came as gimmick a few times:

Although Yps, an 80ies legend, is no more, something similar to that egg cuber still seems to be available available:
my favorite thing about this ad, by far, is the weird fully justified text that makes it say "egg becomes square."
