This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Making scrambled eggs from my sister-in-law's chickens and found one with a triple yolk.

When someone is very muscular, is it yoked or yolked? I could see it being either one. Yoked like an ox, or yolked like "when I was a lad I ate four dozen eggs every morning to help me get large"

Seems to be yoked, according to a quick search.

I read that as "eggs from my sister-in-law" and was immediately concerned. Need to grab my coffee

😆I appreciate your concern! Enjoy that coffee!

Thanks mate! Hope you enjoyed your egg.

I see four and a fraction yolks.

Wow! That's cool! There's been a few posts on Reddit over the years about eggs found inside eggs but triple yolk might be more uncommon.

Thanks! On an unrelated note, my in-laws raise their chickens next to a nuclear power plant.
