Epitome of the poor student

Someone at work made a comment about me being a paper saver (I write on both sides of the paper really small so i can fit a year's worth of notes in one notebook) and it reminded me of something really funny:

My friend Paul was just about to hand in his assignment to the prof, only he couldn't find a stapler to bind his pages together. He then proceded to do something that I had never seen done before. He pulled out an old assignment from his binder, carefully picked out the staple from the corner of the page, and tacked the staple to the pages of his new assignment.
Paul REUSED a STAPLE.
OMG

That was pretty funny.

Who's ghetto now?
