My guess is this post has something to do with your kathoey thread.

I cut pieces of paper in half with a paper cutter.
I go through a lot of scratch paper at work, and while we are well-supplied with notepads and things, I prefer to be frugal and also be green and reduce-reuse-recycle. Better to find a second use for those those nearly empty sheets that come out of the printer with that one last line of somebody’s email sig or whatever before throwing them in the bin. Or maybe I have a bunch of things that I can get rid of that are printed on the top-half only, making the bottom halves perfectly suitable for a re-use as scratch paper. It’s really a very sensible thing to do.
But the REAL reason I cut pieces of paper in half to use as scratch paper is that I genuinely enjoy using a paper cutter. Thwunk-thwunk-thwunk. Relaxing AND useful!
I feel so much better now knowing that someone else does this to relax and be useful. My colleagues think I’m crazy (well, I am, but they think it’s because of the paper cutting . . .).

I take my reflex hammer, and hammer away at the tube, working my way from the distal end towards the proximal tip, straightening out all the bends, moving the useful lube distally, and making it accessible again. So satisfying! Yet productive! And better than hitting my patients with a hammer (well I do that too, but just on their knees.)

Perhaps more effective, if not nearly as therapeutic
