Paper Shredder

I just realized that I use a paper shredder not because I’m particularly concerned with the sensitivity of anything I deal with, but rather because it makes going through mail so much more fun and satisfying. (19)

    Well, you got a point here. This is what I also found out about my habits. Through all this internet and “away from the paper” it is so god damn much fun to just send the stuff though the shredder.

    Maybe there is a possibiltiy of adding such a sound into Outlook…? *dreaming*

    Hmm, using technology for the fun of using technology: the word for that wouldn’t be â€"geek”, would it? ;-)

    Just don’t overdo it. When you start printing out your spam to shred it, seek help.

    I shred everything, any paper I can find that has my name in it. Paranoia? Maybe. It’s also very therapeutic!
