Sometimes people share stories online thinking they'll be applauded for their ingenuity and creativity only to find the internet community pitying them for their ineptitude.

A college student named Samantha proudly tweeted about how she turned a broken coat hanger into a makeshift fork and people couldn't help but feel sorry for her...and make fun of her, of course.

But Samantha's post also inspired people to tweet about their own makeshift utensils, and some of them made her idea look downright brilliant.

Of course, some of them made her idea look dumb, because paper scooper beats jagged plastic hanger fork by a mile.
