If you've used it a lot, put it against something straight - a bow/curve/arc may have been worn/eroded into the ruler.

That happened to a couple of mine. Couldn't figure out why I had a curve in the fabric when I moved the ruler. Cuz the ruler had a curve in it. It wasn't much - maybe 1/16 of an inch, but it bugged me.

I've tried stacking my rulers on top of each other to compare markings. Usually they match - once in a while they don't.
