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.
wrote last edited by [email protected]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.

"buy fancy dinner plates" is enough details
anon succeeded and girlfriend was mad that she didn't think of getting the bee plates

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.

Could've been interpreted as he wants kids but anyway.

Woah, we‘re not on r/relationshipadvice here!
Clearly. If we were he'd be advised to hit facebook, delete the lawyer, and hire a gym too

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!
Meh. Plastic plates suck for other reasons... More and more plastic waste sucks

In no context are the bee plates any kind of fancy.

They're adorable, though. That part is true.

Did your girlfriend come to her senses, and realize how great those plates are?

I like how it has an attached dipping plate. Not doubt for ketchup to dip dinosaurs nuts in
Dinosaur... nuts? Never heard of 'em

Dino Nuggies are for kids, adults eat tendies.

I mean, depending on context, these qualify.
Hmm, is the correct context a bee furry convention?

Eh, plastic plates:
- don't shatter when you drop them
- don't chip
- don't screech when cutting things with a knife
Plastic isn't the enemy, single use plastics are.

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.
Seriously and if you fuck up buying dinner plates then it isnt the first thing they fucked up and was prolly the gf's "this is the last straw" request and she really figured this was so stupid simple that she thought theres no way they could fuck it up.

Disagree. Bee plates are fancier than plain kid plates.
