This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

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.

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

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

Disagree. Bee plates are fancier than plain kid plates.

Nah, I've seen plenty of children's plates and designs like that are very common. They're definitely very cute but do not fit the definition of fancy.

Agree to disagree I guess. I have kids, and I'd absolutely save those for special occasions for them, like when we have their favorite food or something.

Sorry but I cant agree to disagree. Not because I don't agree that they could be called "fancier" while not strictly fitting the definition of fancy, but because I enjoy arguing to much to ever stop.

That's fair, arguing is pretty great, especially if it's something entirely pointless.

I think I know the source of the problem.

You’re a Dino guy, but I have the solution!
