Dr. Pizza, you seem like a really cool teacher. Have you ever checked your ratemyprofessor/ratemyteacher score?

Not a good idea.

I could have done without reading that.

Then why did you? This is like a guy who saws his hand off and then rolls his eyes and says "I could have done without sawing my hand off." Feel free to stop sawing at any point, dumbass.

is this a parody thread? because if it is, it's the worst parody thread of all time.

Images you found on the internet? Pansy.

I've been making my own with Corel Draw, then, for many years now, Visio. Visio made up its cost with custom graph paper for calc I&II tests, IMO (on top of all the other stuff I've used it for).

I, too, hope this is a parody thread, and I just haven't been reading here enough lately to figure out what of.

Hmm how cost effective is this? Comparing ink prices vs. graph paper prices.

Laser Printer plus $1.99/500 Sheets baby!

All you young whippersnappers. In my day, we used a ruler and a pen, then drew our own grids on the printer paper we bought from the general store that was 5 miles uphill both ways in the snow.

Lots of CA is middle of nowhere with nothing but a general store equivalent. Lots of CA gets snow (and lots of it). Only a few places in CA bend the rules of physics to allow the "uphill both ways" part.

I was in one of those places today.

The only problem I could see with printing your own stuff would be the risk of the spacing being less-than-perfect. Other than that, it's just lines on paper, drawn according to international standards of measurement.
If the RIAA was behind it, yes, they'd have sued you, The Internet, the makers of the paper, and probably someone at NIST. But they're not.

Because I put graph paper on the internet? I'm not so cool when you show up without your homework and attempt to use the excuse "I forgot graph paper."

Either way it seems kinda silly, its not like graph paper is some huge expensve no matter if you buy it or make it yourself, the only question is of convience. Personally I carry around a pad of engineering paper with me in my backpack everywhere I go, so I can just whip that out whenever and be fine, but if you somehow need graph paper and don't want to spend the few bucks to buy it then w/e go and print some out. I mean i've deffinitely done stuff like that, I don't have a ruler for example so when I need to measure something you can print out a ruler and use that, and I've used a calendar that was 12 sheets of paper stapled together befolre (now I just use Google Calendar). There are lots of usefull things you can just print out to save money, and obviously its all legal so long as the image used is public domain.

Also, anyone figure out what the thread being parodied is here?

"I printed out my own graph paper, but the GPAA broke down my door, destroyed my printer, killed my dog, and said they'd kill me if I did it again."

What about that excuse?

Plus, I think the price at the bookstore here is about $8 for 200 sheets, so 4 cents per page. If you print it on a laser printer, you might do alright, especially if you use toner refills. If you use an inkjet, you probably won't break even.

WTF? It started out as a normal day. I was browsing ATOT and suddenly I'm here, reading about the legal implications of printing your own graph paper? I must have accidentally pressed the ludicrous speed button. I'm getting out before this thing goes to plaid.

It's too late for that. You're a lifer.
