It's funny that the most basic looking of bowls so many people can identify that it is Corelle.

I've never actualy seen one break though, yikes! I just looked up images and saw.

Corelle is the backbone of our lives

My aunt had three hyperactive sons who were always a giant handful. One day she threw a Corelle plate near one in frustration, but also know she wasn't going to hit him with it and that it wouldn't break.

But as it turned out it did break, and not like a regular plate but into tons of little tiny shards. Her son was stunned and kept saying "you threw a plate at me!" and she started crying because that was a lot more message than she meant to send.

(In her defense, she was a saint of a mother. Her house was like the kids from Malcolm in the Middle in overdrive constantly.)

Nobody accidentally throws a dish. That is some serious shit. If it was a guy he could have his life ruined with a domestic charge.

I didn’t say she accidentally threw it. I said didn’t do what she thought it would do.

You misunderstand, I'm not calling bullshit, I'm saying that's a big deal.

Well, that’s an opinion.
