BUMP in paper???
How would you express this?
Lets say you want to staple a credit card receipt to a piece of paper. You staple the top part of the receipt and then the bottom, but you don't hold the receipt down taut, but you still staple it. You end up then with some slack/bump in the receipt.
What is that? "a bump/some slack in the paper"?
Thank you

- One puts down rolled "felt" as an underlay, before the asphalt shingles are nailed down.
- The felt is also nailed, so if one is careless, it may "buckle up" in places.

That's a tough one. I'd probably call it a wrinkle (as opposed to "a crease.")

I've never seen any business staple the credit card (or any other kind of receipt) at both the top and the bottom.
If there are two receipts, i.e., the receipt from the cash register or printed out receipt from the company's printer, then the credit card receipt (at least in the U.S. and every place I've travelled in Europe and North Africa) is stapled with one staple in the upper left h
