A little fun from the FT. Apparently they don't care for American paper sizes in comparison to ISO 216 and I appreciate the poetry with which they express this. 😀

EDIT: A kind person has provided this link https://www.ft.com/content/bb9bf7c6-1785-4383-9e39-03da04a17fe2 although much of the other language employed smacks of desperation to claim credibility as a younger person and is quite cringeworthy in its use.

We tried to design the perfect sellside note. How did we do?

@Homebrewandhacking I'm old enough to remember Britain using "foolscap" sized paper, and I heard no complaints whatsoever as it vanished in favour of A series paper.

@derryh @Homebrewandhacking the changeover happened around the time I became old enough to read and write (late 1970s) without too much fuss (although foolscap lever arch files remain popular as their extra size protects the edges of A4 paper stored inside them)
