I would like an electric stapler that emits sounds like a bullet ricocheting or a horse neighing or a whip cracking, etc.-- mrthingy, Aug 25 2000 Sound effects as performance art http://www.halfbake...20performance_20art [hippo, Aug 25 2000, last modified Oct 04 2004] U.S. patent no. 5,351,436 http://www.delphion...at.cmd/US05351436__Fly swatter with sound effects. [beauxeault, Aug 25 2000, last modified Oct 21 2004] I would like a gun, or a horse, or a whip that emits a sound like an electric stapler.-- Lemon, Nov 21 2000 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?)-- egnor, Nov 21 2000 A scream would therefore be appropriate for both the stapler and the remover.-- cletusboy, Feb 14 2001 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.-- Susen, Feb 21 2001 When I was picking beans in Guatemala, we used to make stapler sounds all the time.-- centauri, Feb 21 2001 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.-- Drondex, Jan 25 2002 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.-- magnificat, Mar 17 2002 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).-- belindafish, Mar 18 2002 15 croissants eh? the noisy bottle openers probably sounded good at this stage as well.-- stilgar, May 03 2004 halfbakery
