I was going to buy some paper plates and bowls for for my 40th birthday party so all the drunks didn't break the good stuff. My GF at the time scolded me for being an enemy of the environment blah blah blah. Like paper plates are going to make a difference

But I conceded and bought cheap plastic plates and bowls (which I was going to throw out anyway). But.. they are still in use 14 years later as cat food bowls - who would have thought.
