Anon does the shopping
(sh.itjust.works)
Did your girlfriend come to her senses, and realize how great those plates are?
Obv its because he chose the plates and not the girlfriend
Dear god it them
The myth, the legend, the plate
Can it bee?
Make a terrible person leave you alone in this one easy step
She didn't communicate her needs well enough.
Honestly, the Bee plates showing up is more her fault than his.
Lack of communication is one thing, losing your shit like this because of it is another. ...but that's two things now, so...
Didn't communicate her needs? What more communication do you need beyond "get fancy dinner plates"? How do you fuck that up? If you're unsure, communicate your need for further information, or google fancy dinner plates.
These are fancy. and they're dinner plates.
They may not be "formal", but they're definitely fancy.
No, they're children's dinner plates. That's about as far from fancy as you can get. Made from sturdy plastic instead of ceramic or what have you so they don't break when an unruly child throws it on the floor to spite their broccoli.
found the girlfriend
Plain children’s dinner plate:
Context is always important. Again, she meant “formal”,
Should he have known better? Sure. But she should have known him better too

If you are somewhat tight for cash or shopping for another person some conflict stemming from this is completely reasonable.
Then again I find it weird to give someone money and then say "Buy some plates" without any further details or supervision. Of course anon could have, yknow, asked if the plates are okay before ordering
A greentext story is like a dream. You're following the narrative, while simultaneously thinking that this makes no sense and how did things get here.
You reflect on the weird nature of your dreams as you have them? I just go with the flow, accepting things as real, even though in reality they make no sense. Which then raises the question: how do I know I am not dreaming? Sure, things appear to make sense here, as opposed to dream nonsense. But if dreams don't seem weird in context, how do I know there isn't a level above, where what we take as logical makes no sense?
I like how it has an attached dipping plate. Not doubt for ketchup to dip dinosaurs nuts in
those are to give the kid different types of food in correct quantities
source : am dad, even have the cutlery that fits this set.
Dinosaur... nuts? Never heard of 'em
Come over to my place sometime.
Pretty sure thats just a matching bowl next to it.
Dino Nuggies are for kids, adults eat tendies.
Are you kidding me?! There isn't a single person I know who wouldn't at least appreciate those plates enough to chuckle! Those are awesome plates, I'd use those plates even for formal events, the only people who'd be upset by them are stuck-up assholes!
and teenagers insisting they're no longer kids. (same fight as "kids table" stuff. To be honest, when I became an adult, the kids table was always more fun anyhow. Dinosaurs are way more interesting topics of conversation than adult-stuff.)
100% same. I'm the built-in babysitter for family events. Why would I want to hear my aunt ask for the 500th time why I'm not married, when my nephews and nieces are playing out a story where Bluey and Sonic the Hedgehog team up to fight crime? Screw boring grown-up talk, I want the imaginative adventure.
I 100% believe the moment we try to pretend we aren't children anymore is the moment we deny a huge chunk of what makes us human.
Not to mention a HUGE mistake logistically speaking, because it also means that we wouldn't be working with the actual data. We don't lose who we've been, it constantly gets incorporated into who we're becoming. Those kids we used to be are still there, alive and well (and probably sobbing in a corner for a friggin' crumb of honest, carefree enjoyment of, like, anything!) and all we do is to try to bury them deeper and deeper, until we can't hear those sobs anymore. But those sobs just get worse, until they... stop. After a loong, long time, they stop - killed where nobody else could hear it.
And if all of that sounds insane, it's because it is. That's my point.

Can confirm, these are awesome plates. They were my daughter’s favorites.
Idk what his gf is on about. These slap and anon is clearly a distinguished gentleman.
Could've been interpreted as he wants kids but anyway.
They're so cute.
Fake (anon has gf) and gay (said fake gf hates the plates)
I'd be fucking delighted if my wife brought home these plates.
