Have you ever tried to get chad out of your hair ? Mind you, that's not as bad as square chad (commonly called shit -- Square Holes In Tape). There was one cardpunch in the machine room where I worked which punched long thin rectangular holes and had a publically-accessible chad-box. Once you got that stuff in your hair or on your clothes, you needed someone else's help to get it out. The punch had a very sharp blade and the chad was sharp enough to cut skin. If you tried to comb it out of your hair you moved the comb very slowly to prevent tiny papercuts on your scalp. As for clothes, opinions varied: some said that you should shake all you could out of the clothes ASAP, while others recommended washing the clothes by themselves and then clearing the chad pulp out of the washing-machine drain filter.
