I mean, I just graduated, and last part of my degree was a 6-month internship, with a written report. By the time I turned it in, I knew I was getting a permanent offer at he company I had interned in, and was as a result already financially independent.
So if a teacher had been a dick about that rule, and I had had that idea... Well I might have considered it. Sending a message while remaining within the established rules is something of a piece of art.
@cycy@defau0lt Maybe he works in a tile/ outdoor place and they let him have it for free? Post did say “$70 worth” not that he actually payed $70??? Just possible idk

I mean it could be but I thinks it's rather unlikely that a company will gift multiple, perfectly in shape limestone plates so a worker can fuck around with teachers. If they where partially damaged, disclosed or had any other issue then I would agree with you

the material cost is 70$.. i doubt that if you let someone engrave / laser it and ship it to you that it's cheap. even if you just 3d print something and let it ship to you it's sometimes 100€+ ^^
Why such a focus on the cost - who cares about that? Instead consider the brilliant irony of what he did. I'll bet the school administrators never expected that rule to be taken so literally.
We care about cost because money is sort of necessary to live in most places, and most college students are constantly going on about how broke they are.
