What are you saying with your Chinet plates?
I saw the dumbest commercial this evening - twice. First there's a scene of someone serving food to people in their livingroom, followed by some people on a couch, with a guy holding a plate that says "Friends." Next, a man and woman are walking on a beach, about to have a picnic. Then we see the woman holding a plate that says "Affection." And finally, a guy at a barbecue, slapping a big hunk of meat on someone's plate, followed by a guy holding a plate that says "Confidence."

I think my Chinet plates would say "Too lazy to wash dishes."

1. Mine say
I don't want to fuck up the motor home with dirty dishes that I'm not going to wash today. Or tomorrow. Or ever.

or

What do you expect on a motorcycle? Waterford?

Breakfast, lunch and dinner tastes better cooked over an open campfire.

Besides, I don't have to pack it out or leave them for the archeologists to find centuries later.

3. My paper plates say...
"Too lazy to wash dishes and too cheap to buy Chinet"

6. It would make a good one of those fake commercials on SNL
using political figures. What's George Bush saying with his Chinet plates? The possibilities are endless.

5. Good God!
Have we gotten so indoctrinated by TV that we now are getting ads trying to relate PAPER PLATES to SELF WORTH?!?!? Sickening!
