*Bob* Posted May 12, 2010 Author Share Posted May 12, 2010 Michael, when you say 'oval', do you mean 'classic oval' or are we really talking about a square plate with the corners rounded off. Be honest. Remember - I can tell when you're lying.

*Bob* Posted May 12, 2010 Author Share Posted May 12, 2010 Square with corners rounded off. You're thinking they might be somewhere in between. Think again. You are wrong. There is no in between. There is only round.. and square. There is only right.. and wrong.

*Bob* Posted May 12, 2010 Author Share Posted May 12, 2010 Oval plates pass 'The Angle Test', and thus fall under the banner of 'round'. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/11229-do-you-own-square-plates/page/3/#findComment-323263 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moos Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 A nice try, but one doesn't eat them or put them on a table or even (eek!) hang them from a wall at any angle that makes them look round so... no.Could it be, everyone, that *Bob* is making this all up as he goes along? I for one would be shocked, shocked. I was relying on him to save me from social death.

*Bob* Posted May 12, 2010 Author Share Posted May 12, 2010 Oval is to round as rectangle is to square. Those are the facts. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/11229-do-you-own-square-plates/page/3/#findComment-323268 Share on other sites More sharing options...
