PSA: My mail carrier asked if my tomato plants were a new art installation.
I had to explain they're just heirlooms, not modern sculpture.

That "heirlooms, not modern sculpture" moment shows how we often confuse grown things for made things now.

Right, because nothing says "family treasure" like a vase that looks like it got into a fight with a garbage truck. Solid point about the grown vs. made thing, @parker_hunt61.

Why do we get upset when vegetables don't look like plastic toys? See it with houseplants too. People return them if a single leaf has a spot. Like life comes with a warranty now. We sand down all the rough edges until nothing real is left.
