Heeeeeelp!

Help, what do you call the thing you use to flip an egg over with when you're frying one up? It's like a flat thing on the end of a handle.

I offered up "spatula" but was poo-pahed. "Flipper" also didn't satisfy my dad. There's another word for it and until someone comes up with it, Dad is not gonna stop bringing it up and it's driving me insane.

First person to give me the word...I dunno, ask me for something you think I'll be able to provide and it's yours. Just make him stop!

EDIT: Ah very educational. Thank you, people! :)

EDIT again: Bwahahahahaha! He's calling his mother (my Grandmother)! Oh, I love my family! *listens* She doesn't know either! CLASSIC! The conversation is cracking me up!

"Well ask Dad, he'll know!" "Well, have you heard it called a spatula?" "It's not a spatula, I swear it and I grew up in your house. You never call it a spatula!"

OMG! Family! *dies o laughter*

"Yeah, I know people call it a spatula, but it's not!" I think my Grandpa is looking up references now. Heeeee!

"Oh, now you're just making stuff up so I think you think you know what you're talking about, but you don't. It's not a toast flipper!" Ha!

EDIT yet again: Okay looks like they've decided on EGG LIFTER! Thank God for that!!
