A 67 year old lady at my job keeps calling the binder we share a tablet and every time she asks for it, I’m like, “what tablet?”. Yesterday I told her it’s a binder and she said it was called a tablet before my time. But all my grandparents are around the same age and they all call them binders. Was it a regional thing maybe? We’re in the US by the way.

    A tablet is more like a clipboard with paper than a binder 📋

    If you think of a stone tablet, it’s a flat thing with writing on it, same idea.

      That’s when OP realized that’s no 67-year-old woman, it’s the god damn 6,700-year-old Loch Ness monster
