N. A person with the odd dining habit of eating each item on their plate in its entirety before rotating the plate and eating the next one.
I was a plate-turner as a child: had to eat all of my pork chop first, then all of the green beans, then the mashed potatoes, rotating the plate each time so the next food item was directly in front of me.

Get the go to the hot platemug. A practice in European Union, when its Member State adds new (and often more demanding) requirements to those that are expected in common legislation - mainly directives. Sometimes caused by overzealous bureaucrats, sometimes it is just their pure idiocy.
Bureaucrat 1: Recipients of this EU schemes are asked to submit invoices upon the end of the project.
Bureaucrat 2: Let's also ask them to write a 100-page long end-of-mission report, 10 testimonies of beneficiaries and copies of Annual reports 10 years back.
Bureaucrat 1: But that is gold-plating!
Bureaucrat 2: Sure, but we do not really want European money.

Get the Hot Platemug. Someone you only call late at night when you're drunk and want to hook up, but wouldn't actually date or hang out with. Derives from late night plates of terrible food at diners that are only acceptable after 3am.
"I didn't meet anyone cool at the party last night, so I called up my late plate."
"Kristen, that guy never texts you except after midnight, when he's drunk and wants to get laid. He's late plating you!"
