Bach's spoon

“The most literal answer is the best”

Bach’s spoon is much like occams razor “the simplest answer is the best”. As he pulls out a big spoon as a witty reply to his friends comment “only a spoonful”. Bach acknowledges that a “spoonful” is only an abstract form of measurement therefore he subverts expectations by pulling out a large spoon. This spoon being full would drain the contents of the tub of ice cream due to its size. Bach can only come to this answer by pushing “spoonful” to its most literal definition. His friends language makes it so that Bach is able to exploit the agreement without voiding the terms of “a spoonful". Therefore making the most literal answer the best one.
"My doctor said I should limit myself to one cup of coffee a day so I employed the principle of Bach's spoon and bought a 32 ounce coffee cup".

toilet spoon

Synonym for toilet brush. Toilet spoons, also known as cosmetic spoons, were used to store perfumes for makeup in ancient Egyptian society. Therefore the term toilet spoon actually precedes and is superior in all respects to the term toilet brush. The term toilet brush therefore must surely die out and be replaced by the term toilet spoon.
In Louis Shap's recent video about Willne and Pyrocynical's secret ASMR channel, there was outcry when Louis described sounds being made by a toilet spoon. 'After that he (Willne) brushes it with some kind of toilet spoon'
