Bandi's Plate...

my roommate bandi cambridge has a large golden plastic plate that she often uses and dirties and leaves lying around on the kitchen counter / floor.

that is bad.

whats worse is that the plate is the largest we have in our house, which means that i am often forced to use it when consuming massive quantities of frozen pizza that i expertly cook in the oven. you know how that goes. you cook a big plain cheese pizza that you stole from your roommate (also bandi cambridge) and then you are forced to scour your house looking for a plate big enough to contain its fury when you remove it from the oven. life is hard.

for that reason, i guess i am semi fond of bandi's plate. for other reasons, i hate it.

for instance, on the back of the plate it says the following...

DO NOT USE IN MICROWAVE
DO NOT PUT IN DISHWASHER
DO NOT USE WITH FOOD

which begs the question, AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO IS OUTRAGED THAT THERE ARE PLATES THAT YOU CANT EAT OFF OF? seriously? who would ever make such an item? and why would they make it?

"DONT eat off of our plate, but if you do DONT put it in the microwave, but if you do DONT wash it or you will pretty much die."

whats next - pillows not made for sleeping? shirts not made for wearing? tara reids not made for sexual favors and testing out your homemade crystal meth recipe? i mean come on.

this world is going crazy, and someone should do something about it.

in the meantime, ummm, PIZZA! i like it.
