BOUNTIFUL, UT — Local mother Sarah Jenkins was reportedly attempting to explain the difference between a numerator and a denominator to her fourth grader on Monday morning when she inadvertently folded the fabric of spacetime and created a wormhole near her kitchen table.
The incident occurred during a particularly grueling session of fourth-grade homework. Family members present reported that the moment Sarah tried to explain how to divide three-fourths by one-half, the spacetime continuum split and a wormhole opened in the middle of her kitchen.
"I just told her to flip the second fraction and multiply," Sarah said, shielding her eyes from the glowing singularity pulsing behind her chair. "Next thing I know, the laws of the known universe collapsed, and time began to bend towards the event horizon. Honestly, it's still less stressful than the Common Core method."
Her daughter, Emma, remained unimpressed by the cosmic anomaly. "Does this mean I don't have to finish the worksheet?" she asked, as a nearby spatula was pulled into the gravitational well of the dark matter vortex.
At publishing time, agents from the Department of Defense and NASA had arrived to contain the breach and admitted that navigating the wormhole was significantly easier than helping a 10-year-old find the least common multiple.
