So i came across this one day, they make this thing called an electric stapler. At first, your like ok ok this sounds like a very neat idea but
i need to come forth with this Terror, this destructive inhuman machine! An out-rage if you will...


PROS
-One handed stapling: Coffee in one hand, fax in another
-No more need for sweaty hands spreading germs
-No real physical work required
-Ideal machine for the average lazy Office Cubet

CONS
-Potential dangerous to employees not paying attention
-Machine could misfire / Ricochet (eye danger) staples
-Its a machine (small chance of machines still taking over the world)
-Burn down building (electrical fire hazard)

Obviously these machines are dangerous. Unless your a skilled employee, your employer terms are in the wrong hands!
You might think this is a joke, look at these terrors
< Looks like some sort of war machine
< this is what I'm talking about
< i swear i didn't make this
< I'm sorry i just feel this is necessary
< what is this?

What does everyone think?



None.

All your cons fail

You cant possible put ANY of your body parts into the machine, at least by the looks of it. The only way would be for that part of your body to already have been severed to fit into the stapling mechanism.

No. The money gain from taking the company to court would be worth losing an eye. Maybe get a really cool monocle?

Wether all machines would rise and attempt to annihilate the human race, this one would fail..miserably.

These electric staplers look well made tbh. If anything its your faulty wiring in your walls that is to blame. You computer has this same problem except the chances are so small that it doesn't even matter or should count as a con.


This is the reason why USA is fat.

My infotech class has one of those. You have to put the paper in about two inches to get it to staple, and not even my small fingers fit under there. Nothing rotates, so you can't use it to shoot staples at people. It doesn't even shoot the staples, really, it just pushes them, so no ricochet. It's not like it uses combustion to propel the staples... Electric staplers are thoroughly un-dangerous, maybe even more so than manual staplers.



None.

it's rather inconvenient actually, as it requires you to transfer it to Custom Score which might even interfere with what you're measuring. But IIRC you can also use EUDs to display it which by now could actually be somewhat convenient.

Yeah, I've noticed it, but it raised a couple of relevant questions and kept the ad to the signature so if someone were to engage with the topic it could be a net positive which is why I kept it. We're not necessarily anti-bot, just anti-spam. Thanks to Symmetry who realized my hope. :)
