      Not even a copier tech can fold a piece of paper more than 7 times no matter how big the paper is.

        I'd like to state that Mythbusters disproved that, they folded some paper a record setting 8 times.

        It's worth mentioning that the paper was large enough to fill a plane hangar however...

          Mythbusters tested that myth. They folded a very large piece of paper (like the size of a warehouse) 11 times if I'm remebering correctly and there was a reference to a girl who, for a science project, laid out a full roll of toilet paper and folded it over more than 7 times. And we're back to TP. Folding is definitely the way to go. Just sayin'.

            You beat me to it and with a source. You deserve some rep.

              Admittedly my count of 8 may be wrong, it's been a while since I watched the footage and honestly couldn't be bothered to watch the clip again.
              If they did it 11 times then even better. I remember it being not much more than 7 and an obscene amount of paper.

                It was 11! Why can I remeber that number from a Mythbuster's episode I haven't seen in years but I can't remember where I set my phone down 5 minutes ago? :l

                  I stand corrected. Nice video.

                    Oddly enough I was thinking about this very sub-topic just a few days ago, I thought of looking up the video for shiggles, but decided against it... I still stand by my decision.

                    It almost feels appropriate to throw in one of those "The more you know" star images here, but I can't be bothered to go look for one.

                        Jude, I thought about this, and I don't know of any way to give anonymous reputation, negative or positive. I've looked at mine, and I know where all mine comes from, as it states on the far right side of the reputation line. It may not be anonymous, you just may not have noticed it...

                          This has been an exercise in Irony (from the Ancient Greek εἰρωνεία , meaning dissimulation or feigned ignorance)[1] is a rhetorical device, literary technique, or situation in which there is an incongruity between the literal and the implied meaning.

                          Good times though. and this thread has gone to the toilet it's time to flush.

                            This has been an exercise in futility.

                            Screaming and crying about a BULLY, just gives the BULLY what he wants.

                            Ignore online BULLIES and they loose their motivation.
                            Turn their bullying into just what it is, a joke.

                            A bully will run away from people laughing at them faster than one person fighting them.

                            We all give fun natured teasing back and forth, but we don't take it personal.

                            It is not a good day if I can't f*#k with someone.
                            Some days it just happens here.

                            I will give you some rep point, because today it is you that got elected.
                            Why do they call it common sense?

                            If it were common, wouldn't everyone have it?

                              I like that advice. It is not enough for only one to combat cyber punks. I had a good time with this thread. It has been an interesting experiment. I see the futility in it now and would like to turn everyone's attention to cyber bullying awareness month.

                                If only parents can teach their children this ideal.
                                Most kids that are bullies are learning this from their parents by the way they are treated at home.
                                Low man on the totem pole tends to get buried in s*$t.
                                They are just trying to dig their way out the best they can.
                                That is why they pick on someone smaller.

                                Bullying can't be solved in the schools.

                                It can only be solved at home.

                                Until then, ignore, laugh with or communicate with a bully.

                                They are just looking for help or recognition in the wrong way.
                                Why do they call it common sense?

                                If it were common, wouldn't everyone have it?
