Brain Teasers
You Can Find Me Almost Anywhere
You can find me almost anywhere,
from mansions to apartments.
I can be made of almost anything,
from silver to plastic.
Although you can live without me,
kings and servants alike use me,
although hot dogs and celery
do not require the use of me.
Depending on where you live
you may not ever see me,
but depending on the time of day,
in your hand I may be.
I could be used as a weapon
in a dire emergency,
but generally my many points
are only used to feed.
Now it should be apparent.
Can you finally see?
For if you paid attention
you are certain to succeed...
Who am I? Will you tell me?

Hint
I want you to get it,so just one more clue.
Mealtimes are mainly
when I see you.
Answer
I'm a fork!First and second stanzas:
Forks are found everywhere, used by everyone, and made out of everything. Hot dogs and celery are finger foods and do not require forks to eat.
Third stanza:
Many Asian countries use chopsticks instead of forks. Obviously at mealtimes, a fork would be in your hand.
Fourth stanza:
Forks can hurt if they are thrust with enough force! The points refer to the tines of a fork.

could it be a knife???
Well, the "many points" kind of eliminates the knife option.
Very easy (figured it out at the 'metal or plastic' bit, knew for sure when it mentioned hot dogs), but fun and, I agree, very nicely phrased. I liked it.
at first i thought it was silverware but then it said i cause pain so i thought it couldnt be a spoon
Great jon! I thought it was a knife.
Well, it could have been a better Teaser, had you not said forks are used or found EVERYWHERE. There is one nation with many regions within that never use a Fork...
That is not a statement of FACT. I still cannot say a good teaser, but for those individuals who know no difference would believe that this is a Good Teaser. It is still OK, because you had the mind to create this teaser. Therefore, good work.
