The Staplers of Great Justice! Apply Directly To Forehead!One stapler is used for attorneys that piss me off, to the head is where it goes.


Better view than what I had. I had my own office, but to get to a window I’d have to go down the hall to the small lobby, out into the next hall, out into the stairway… and there it was… a window… that, for the longest time, was blocked by ugly plants (inside in potters)Two staplers! What kind of master stapler are you where you can wield two staplers at once?!
Nice window, BTW... I can only wish I had a window that close to me while I suffer in my cubicle, day in and day out.
edit:
Here’s my view to a window in a door to an office that isn’t mine that has windows. Circled in red just to be clear. Anyone here jealous?

Well there’s standard staples, heavy duty staples. 1/4” staples, 1/2” staples, 3/4” staples… that’s at least 6 staplers!
Don’t believe everything on the interwebz.
Nope, they look like identical Swinglines... maybe one's for throwing and the other's for stapling?
You’re probably right. But that still calls for more than one staplerNope, they look like identical Swinglines... maybe one's for throwing and the other's for stapling?
You can believe me.What?! You jusr told me that ON THE INTERWEBZ, so now what do I believe?!
Ya see what happens when ya go lookin' for trouble??? Ya find it! {finger wagging emoji}Still not sure why I subscribed to that “what would you do to save Gibson” thread. Some of the dopiest posts I’ve read. Did you know Gene Simmons was pretty much the only popular bass player to play a Gibson? Did you know Gibson owns Guitar Center? Did you know Gibson is THE MOST overrated brand on the market currently? Or that $2k for a US made instrument is ‘insanely overpriced?’
Way to start the morning :/
Never heard of it! It's nice to have something to look forward toThat’s why my favourite scene in Idle Hands is when he gets the top of his head ripped off...

Somewhat notable.
1640 Otto von Guericke first produces an air pump that is able to create a partial vacuum. A vacuum was required for the operation of thermionic valves.
1858 Julius Plucker demonstrates that magnetic fields can bend rays of what are later called cathode rays
1860 Joseph Swann patents the carbon filament lamp
1871 Sir William Crookes deduces that cathode rays consist of negatively charged particles.
1879 Thomas Edison files a US patent for a high vacuum incandescent lamp using a carbon filament
1883 Thomas Edison observes thermionic emission in a vacuum.
1883 Professor John Ambrose Fleming of University College London, presents a paper to the Physical Society on the 'Molecular Shadow.'
1885 Sir William Preece replicates the Edison effect and makes measurements, presenting a paper to the Royal Society.
1897 Guglielmo Marconi sets up his Wireless telegraph and Signal Company to exploit radio or 'wireless' technology.
1900 Ambrose Fleming becomes a consultant to Marconi.
1901 Marconi makes the first transatlantic radio transmission, but difficulties were encountered with detecting he signals
1904 Ambrose Fleming rectifies wireless signals using what he terms his oscillation valve - this is the first time the Edison effect has been used. It was a simple diode valve and sometimes referred to as a Fleming Diode.
You can believe me.
Send me your basses, I’ll increase the value and playability, send them back free of charge with a one week turn around.
Mark, i asked for you to make it stop. He's relentless.

Are you really writing with your left hand?
We're everywhere! Bowie was also left-handed.Are you really writing with your left hand?
Ok... the Jessica Alba thing seals the deal!It's a double edged sword, Fix.
On the positive side, you get to see a young Jessica Alba dance in an angel costume with her hot friend in a devil costume and you get to see Dexter's scalp ripped off.
On the negative side for you and Pete anyway, the Offspring are performing.
I don't understand the hatred for the Offspring but to each their own.
To me, they'll always be a party band from the 90's with awesome energy.
Ok... the Jessica Alba thing seals the deal!
I have to assume the band performs before he gets his head sliced. I can endure that, with the knowledge of what comes later. It will serve only to put a fresh coat of hate on him, thus making the partial decapitation that much more pleasurable and satisfying
For some... the sound of fingernails on a chalkboard makes their skin crawl, their teeth itch, and their eyes to move independently from each other. For me... nuthin'. I require the "music" of the Offspring for such unnatural reactions, which are accompanied my an uncontrollable flooding of thoughts and emotions capable of landing me in a situation that concludes with court appointed witnesses and lethal injection.
