Stapling Machines

[hmmm_tea]

So the general consensus is that this is, in fact, a stapler (or according to webofevil, a Wilson's Patented Staplophasic Connectogram).

I only asked, because someone at work keeps referring to them as "stapling machines", which I suppose they technically are, but it somehow always gives me visions of something more at home at a commercial printing press.

They keep getting mentioned as something students can bring with them into the exams, which gives me very odd visions of all the students coming in lugging these printing presses behind them.

Oh well, I guess I just have to start calling them staplophasic connectograms then just to be ahead of the game...
