where to buy a metal ruler
 
i've lost my pencil case today
so i am trying to replace everything

i am looking for a specific ruler, it's made of metal, but not the common ones u see in staples/superstore, it is thicker than those ones, and shorter as well..
supposely u can buy them in hk but i want to find it here..

any inputs would be appreciated

i prefer those rubber rulers because they never break and you can slap someone in the face with it. its really loud too

so far i've tried the stationary stores in metro, none of them have it..
its not a special ruler, just regular one one
i am gonna goto richmond tomorrow to see if i have any lucks

+1

if this is so i want one

pandalove 07-17-2009 02:24 PM

nooo you dont cheat by slipping a paper in there ...

these you can write on these metal rulers with a lead pencil
their small like 15-20 cms.. so the teacher dun get wise and it easily fits in a small pencil case ... i just write really small on to the ruler and use it to cheat in class... its silver so its not obvious theres pencil marks on the ruler.. and the lead marks can be easily rubbed off with ur finger
hongers use it all the time ...well my school atleast

lol... whatever happened to writing on your hand with highlighter... rubbing it off, and using a UV light to read it?

oh wait, that was just me...

slammer111 07-17-2009 05:30 PM

^ How the hell do you use a UV light during an exam?
