<paroneayea> Oh man!  Oh man!  Oh man!
<paroneayea> I have to tell you people the funniest thing
ever.
<paroneayea> This friend of mine, a theater major, walks into
my room.  "Do you have a printer I can borrow?" she says.
<paroneayea> "Yes," I say, "but it's an old LaserJet 4L.  Is
that alright?"
<paroneayea> "Should be," she responds.
<paroneayea> Then she hands me this paper.  It's like normal
paper, but thicker, and... not friendly.
<paroneayea> I ask what it is and she says "cardstock."
<paroneayea> I raise an eyebrow and say, "you do realize that
there's no way in hell my printer is going to print on this
paper."
<paroneayea> "Oh."
<paroneayea> "Well," she says, "could we print it on normal
paper and somehow transfer it to the cardstock?"
<paroneayea> "What, like print it out and literally cut it up
and glue it on there?"
<paroneayea> "No, like, if you printed it out and then stuck
it in your scanner, maybe we could print it out again on the
cardstock?"
<althalus> wtf
<paroneayea> She couldn't understand why I was laughing so
hard
<Wilf> lol
<althalus> that needs to go up on bash.
<paroneayea> agreed
