>>Another funny run here: "- run low on : to approach running out of ("running low on options")"... except that "run out of" is not listed here at all - it's a phrase with "run out" :).

One would suppose that "run into" is the opposite of "run out of"... but it's not. When your printer runs out of paper, you can't backtrack to the moment when it ran into it.

Speaking of printers...

>Another word to look out for is "feed". It can be used as vi or vt, both suggesting something being ingested, but then there's the form to "feed through", often used in IT.

...and feeding them, it seems that they like the condiments the best. How many printers have "paper jam" on their menu? Does anyone know a good recipe for preparing that sort of jam?
