Go Paperless ???
« on: July 27, 2010, 08:16:16 pm »
My bank statement every month comes with an extra piece of paper in it asking me to "go paperless".  How dumb is that?

Recycling is BS.

If you don't believe that, watch this.

I hate those emails with the "Please consider the environment" BS on the end.

I'm an anti-greenie.  Does that make me a brownie?

UPDATE:  Thanks Russ - fixed the link.

Well back in the 90's CNO Boorda wanted a paperless Navy.  Well we waste more paper nowadays with computers than we ever did with typewriters.  Think about it, you make a mistake on a typewriter written report you use whiteout or someother cover-up and retype the correct thing.  On a computer you print it out and see an error you throw away the paper and reprint it again to find another mistake.

hahaha!  That's hilarious Rog!

Hey chief... I think you are supposed to check for errors BEFORE you print it out.   :o

I bring tons of paper home from work.  They stack up stuff that's been printed and you're supposed to use it for scrap.  I bring it home and print my stuff on the blank side.  I don't do it to be green though... I do it cuz I'm cheap!   :P

Hey Janet, hate to tell ya but your link doesn't work on my end. I only have two bills that are paper, the rest I receive by e-mail. We do recycle at my house. One of the ways is if anyone prints something wrong or that can't be used, we put it in a basket and make notepads. We collect all aluminum and sell it.       8)  8)  8)

You could go paperless on your backside if you had a beday.  Just dont drink from the beday.
