He DOES have a stapler, and tape measure...You cant dock him for that.

a stapler and measuring tape have no purpose at dinner! they shouldnt be in dinner pics!

That is how the dinner pics have been for years...stapler, measuring device (doesnt have to be a TAPE measure), reading material, etc. etc. are all requirements of the dinner pic. Points are deducted for each missing requirement and added or deducted for other asthetic values of the pic such as originality...and how good the food looks.
You are not being a dinner pic "purist" by trying to change that...You are being a "revisionist".

That's right. A Dinner Pic Revisionist??
Yeah, I'd say that's about right. That's almost as bad as saying "why do you need all those assault weapons?" The List is not a 'living document'.
I checked the list, and everything is there. GOOD JOB... except -1 for the alcoholic beverage. Remember: the list states that there must only be a NON-alcoholic beverage in the photo.
Bonus items are always good. A bayonet or tactical knife always looks good, but the steak knife does meet the minimum criteria.
9 out of a possible 10, only because of the beer
