Why do notebooks/papers have Paper Margins? Another sensible (nonsensical) question from my eight-year-old self. πŸ˜‚ My dad said, the margins on your paper aren't there to limit you or to be aesthetically pleasing. They're there because of the rats. Mice and rats are the huge household problems and they love the taste of papers. So, paper manufacturers added margins as a safeguard to satisfy the rodents’ journalistic appetites while also helping to protect the written works. Win-win situation, right? Another random thought while zoning out. πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’«
