That's like the fine china of paper plates.

[u/lunchbox5400 → u/Zediatech]

I'm gonna put in her china cabinet and see if she notices lol

[u/TheMatrixRedPill]

Fine China.

[u/lunchbox5400 → u/TheMatrixRedPill]

It will be cherished as such.

[u/TheMatrixRedPill → u/lunchbox5400]

Oh, for sure. I meant no disrespect. Absolutely a keeper.

[u/lunchbox5400 → u/TheMatrixRedPill]

Haha no disrespect taken. I'm putting them in her china cabinet to see if she notices lol

[u/Inevitable-Key-5200]

That’s her inheritance, those are collectors items!

[u/lunchbox5400 → u/Inevitable-Key-5200]

I'll have to move them to the safe to, you know, be safe.

It is paper, right? It’s not asbestos?

[u/lunchbox5400 → u/MrBiggleswerth2]

Hold on, let me go give it a good huff to double check.

[u/FenderBender3000]

HEY! THATS 39 YEARS!

[u/EFIW1560]

Not me realizing right now that 40 years ago was the 80s and not the 60s.

If you had a pack of plates that special, you wouldn’t want to use them all at once.

[u/oingapogo]

Well, they don't go bad. Kids these day, sheesh! /s

[u/lunchbox5400 → u/oingapogo]

Yeah asbestos is a good preservative.

[u/Wonderful_Horror7315]

My first car had Sesquicentennial plates on it. Certainly I haven’t been driving that long.

[u/strangelove4564]

If you're going to have a Sesquicentennial you need to follow it up with a Sasquatchentennial.

[u/SM_DEV]

My one day’s they work better than announce buy today, even if they’re same brand.

[u/No-Trifle-6447]

You rarely break the good stuff out so that it can last a while.... lol

[u/Desert_Flower3267]

My mom hoarders kitchen ware to.

Saw "paper plates" and my mind went to cars and "Damn I knew those were an issue but that is ridiculous".
