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.

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.

Dang, sounds like those plates are perfectly age appropriate for your gf
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.

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.

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.
Dino Nuggies are for kids, adults eat tendies.
Pretty sure thats just a matching bowl next to it.
Break up with gf and marry the plates
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
Its true that statement is on par for that type of sub.
Stop beeeeeeing such a bitch!
Fake: anon has gf
Gay: anon buys colourful kitchenware and posts about it online in order to start a discussion
They're adorable, though. That part is true.

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)
Amazon has a pretty expansive return policy, just send them back (assuming this is real, which it is not).
who are you even talking to?
the OP from 2015 I'm assuming. Who knows maybe Amazon will let him return them?
Or may Jeff Bezos will personally laugh in his face and have a wedding at his house. Hard to say.
Jeff Bezos having a wedding in random peroples' houses is a running joke I will make for the rest of my life just letting you know.

Why would he return the Bee plates? They are perfect for his special needs.
1: 2015
2: is this a repost from Reddit?
I'd be fucking delighted if my wife brought home these plates.
My partner would never do this, because she knows I would buy goatse plates.
