I had idea they were called "oyster pails" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oyster_pail
No mention of their transformation into plates or of goats' feelings toward them.

Eating noodles right out of the goat box is one of life's little pleasures.
― carl agatha, Tuesday, 5 November 2013 13:30 (ten years ago) link
you can tell because so many people in movies and tv do itand then deliver dialogue with their mouths full of noodles from the goat box

I think people are mistaking something that's made from a flat piece of card with an intent that it should return to that shape. Or something.

I mean, couldn't this be said of every cardboard box ever?

it so clearly makes a SHITTY plate, plus what do you put the leftovers in, and don't you want to mix the chicken with the rice?
― #fomo that's the motto (Hurting 2), Tuesday, 5 November 2013 17:57 (ten years ago) link
some careful folding and scotch tape and you have a box again! #lifehack

need somewhere to put chinese food after you've spilled it all over the place by unfolding the box? try a bowl! #lifehack

Pretty sure only getting one slice of pizza is in no way a life-hack.
― emil.y, Tuesday, 5 November 2013 19:23 (ten years ago) link
His arteries are fine. Since he couldn't make five plates, he's just going to sit there and watch his friends eat pizza.
If only there was another way!

you don't even really need a plate for pizza anyway

don't have plates? use the floor!
don't have a mop? use the dog!

lifehacking tip: keep food in your hands until you've completely eaten it, then get more food with your hands. No plates ever again.
― silverfish, Tuesday, 5 November 2013 19:58 (ten years ago) link
you know what's an even better #lifehack? Stop ordering chinese takeout and cook your own meals instead. The money you save on food delivery and health-related costs may even be enough to buy a set of plates.

Keep your kids from getting their hands dirty by teaching them to pick up food with their faces! Plus no utensils or plates to wash!

or "well, if we weren't best friends, i wouldn't have fought so hard to save your life. it literally has to be personal and i literally have to have told you in the past that best friendship means forever at some point for me to do my job. sorry about the alcohol poisoning."
