The problem here is that he obviously didn't get her new Tupperware after.

You can buy mom's Tupperware, but one cannot just buy granny's Tupperware.
There were parties, and appetizers and large purchases.
Occasionally you can find a classic piece on eBay for $26 like this specimen
But the new stuff just isn't the same and granny wants her legacy back gosh darn it.
I understand, however even nonoptimal plastic boxes are better than a bag.
For my man here, absolutely. But he's dissapointed grandma. He's gettin the bag as a reminder.
Was gonna say. You know the solution here.
attending a Tupperware meeting? How do you even do that?!
Maybe he did, but that's not the point grandmother is making.
we all know granny isn't using actual Tupperware. It's old butter or cottage cheese containers.
They will still disown you if you lose them though.
My grandma had her original Tupperware from the 70s!
What’s with people omitting the possessive apostrophe and letter S? The word “granny” reads like an adjective here
It seems to be a feature of African-American Vernacular English It seems to be well documented. This is one of the random websites that popped up when I searched for it.
Thats super cool, thanks for the link!
classic one is "baby momma" in general american would be "[my] baby's mother"
Anyone else feel guilty when bad grammar is explained by aave? I understand it's cultural but it feels patronizing af
Language is largely an arbitrary collection of rules consensually agreed upon. It's no wonder that throughout history, it has been the ruling classes that spoke the most “correctly” and the poor that spoke “incorrectly.” Grammar is a tool of social control.
Free your mind.
It’s not bad grammar. It’s different grammar than the “Standard American English” most of us learned in school, and sometimes described as bad grammar for generally racist historical reasons.
Possessive determiners are adjectives.
It's common in AAVE - nothing wrong with it
How do you know it's supposed to have an apostrophe and an S though?
Context, but I do think that it's important enough to not omit
That is some artful bagging of a meal. One bag, yet neatly compartmentalized with virtually no smearing on the bag. Damn.
And everything in that picture was hours of cooking, cleaning. God I'm tired just looking at that bag.
Granny could probably sell those on doordash for $35 a pop :)
My leftovers look more like some strange sea life from the murky depths.
Blud, count yourself fortunate that she's still giving you food. If I'd gone and lost my grandma's Tupperware, she'd straight up murder me ass.
Get in the mud to have some gud fud, blud.
Damn that looks delicious.
In Canada, care comes in bags.
So does milk but that don’t make it right.
Nah, j/k. Go on with your wacky milk bags, ya crazy hosers.
Not in bears?
Canada comes in Care Bears.
I'm conflicted if I should upvote this. I'm a little disgusted, but also turned on.
Wise woman, your gran.
THE BAG OF SHAMEEEE
I prefer bags.
