I would like an electric stapler that emits sounds like a bullet ricocheting or a horse neighing or a whip cracking, etc.

       I would like a gun, or a horse, or a whip that emits a sound like an electric stapler.

       Yes, I have stapled my finger. It didn't hurt at all. In fact, I could hardly even feel it.   

       Now, when I pulled it out, *that* hurt, and it bled all over the place. (Staple remover sound effects?)

       A scream would therefore be appropriate for both the stapler and the remover.

       I like the horse neighing and whip cracking....but, wait...I hear those sounds daily.... maybe a staple that emits random animal noises (moo, baaa, oink...) or yells out "yes, yes, YES!" or says other annoying phrases.... like "this report stinks" "is this important enough to staple?" etc.

       When I was picking beans in Guatemala, we used to make stapler sounds all the time.

       I would prefer a stapler that when stapled, whoud emit screames and profanities along with a lot of red ink dabbed over the area of puncture.

       Shouldn't the paper emit the red ink, rather than the stapler?

mrthingy, Mar 17 2002
  

       The idea is that the stapler would squirt the red ink onto the paper so it looked like the paper had bled. It's easier to built an ink cartridge into a stapler than into a million pieces of paper.

       Or you could have a stapler that has a built in sound of a stapler, that way, it would sound like you were using it when you were'nt and you could have a little rest without anyone knowing! (Would only work in partitioned offices obviously).

       15 croissants eh? the noisy bottle openers probably sounded good at this stage as well.
