  Yeah, we use an empty binder as a door stopper.

    With no paper involved, “tablet” makes even less sense. I’m quite old, it’s not an age thing.

    Given how you’re using it, you could further confuse her by calling it a “chock.”

    Gotcha. Well, I’ve never heard it called a tablet around where I live, so that’s a new thing for me. To me a tablet is flat and most binders (three ring binders) have a sort of triangular profile so I would have been confused too lol
