Copy Machines At Greater Risk During Holidays
Ant writes "CNET News.com reports that photocopier supplier Canon is warning customers to take better care of their office equipment during the Christmas period. It claims that the festive season traditionally leads to a 25 percent hike in service calls due to incidents such as the classic backside copying prank.
Such a stunt, a mainstay of the office party, often results in cracked glass on the copier, with 32 percent of Canon technicians claiming to have been called out to fix glass plates during the Christmas period after attempts to copy body parts went wrong..."
Show me!!!
..compared to faxing your penis
That's why I only photocopy women's breasts. That keeps most of the weight safely off the copier.
This year's Christmas party is gonna ROCK!
That's why I saved the first copy I made of my ass: now I just photocopy that.

The idea of having sex either doesn't come to mind, or the prospect is so daunting, geeks resort to other means to attempt reproducing.
Because this is the one time of the year where the average /.er might actually have the opportunity to see a girl-they-work-with's ass, albeit in B&W on a crumpled sheet of paper in the trashcan? I'd say that's some "shit that matters". Or maybe that'll be the smear across the glass on the copier, so it helps to have a "heads up" before you go thinking it's chocolate and try to lick it off.
Season's greetings and shit.

...if it cracks the glass. Somebody who responded to all those" enhancement" spams? Or--omigod--Bob of Enzyte fame actually taking himself seriously?

Make 45 inclinded copy machines, so we don't really sit on it, just lean with our asses on it. It would make the force excerced on the glass divided by something like 5 or 10 i guess.
You just got troll'd!
Are these photocopies being taken for gift purposes? Because I've heard of some cheap-ass gifts, but actual cheap ass-gifts? That's the lowest of the low.
I hear there's rumors on the Slashdots
Canon, why don't you invent a plastic substitute for people to use during the holidays?? Of course it would have to be anti-bacterial plastic, but surely if you can make a digital camera with a zillion complicated parts you could make something simple like this??
Call it the Christmas bum-shield. Normally I would charge heavily for advice leading to this kind of business opportunity,

they can break. Thats why I use the Xerox Assjet 790. The only copier made especially for your ass. Remember, when copying your ass this holiday season, choose quality, choose the Xerox Assjet 790.

It... matters.
Now maybe you'll think before sitting oon the photocopier and having to call in some poor technician who wants to enjoy Christmas with his family...
But thanks to our good friend alchohol, it'll probably go more like "I probably shouldn't... oh, fuck the technician, this is too awesome to pass up!"

Some years ago Saturday Night Live did a skit with sponsorship from Xerox of the new Assjet Copier, with a specially moulded platten deisgned to take the weight and to 'lift and seperate' for a perfect ass shot every time... We show it to new starts as a psuedo induction training video. :)

We know.
They're lighter and won't break the glass.
This sig is worse than my last.
How much glass can an ass crack crack if an ass crack can crack glass?
