Stapling 5¼" disks to reports was another whoopsie.

Or using a binder clip on 3.5" disks. Lost count how many times I saw that shit.

I always thought that was legend.

If the staple is near the corner it's perfectly fine, the disc itself is round in a square sleeve. So the corners have nothing in them

I bet there was at least one case of "oh shit my assignment isn't ready, maybe I can buy some extra time using the old staple through the data trick, only get to use that once maybe twice per teacher".
