Edit: hahaha suckers. I baited you all into talking about pens. The troll was so obvious.

Hot damn stationary turns me on.
Not that shit though, that’s torture footage.
Pilot G2 best pen ever, unless one ascends to felt tips.
Bic Atlantis would like a smoooth word!
Papermate Flair!
Oh God I hate flair pens with the intensity of a thousand suns. Once they’ve started to dry out even a little the sound and tactile sensation of writing with them is like nails on a chalkboard to me.
Ok, I’m not having this slander! Jk, why are mine lasting so long? I write all day for work. Is it the paper?
The Pilot G2 and the Parker Quink Gels are great for refillable pens too! Dry ink is always an annoyance

Fountain pens FTW!
Yup, $15 for a bottle of ink that’ll go for a long time. Plus you get to be smug. I got a jinhao 10 pen that’s pretty useful .
Pretty slow, but there are some of us here.
I can hear and feel this photo and I find it displeasing.
Wet the tip.
As a lefty I can confidently say fuck all pens. The sharpie gel one I use is alright but ball points just don’t work for those of us who push the ball when we write instead of dragging it. It’s like every pen I use is out of ink.
Turn the page about 45 degrees clockwise, you’ll write more straight across the page and the pen will work better because you’re not pushing it. Experiment until you find the angle that works best for you.
Additional bonus: No more smudges on your hand/the page.
If writing for a decent amount of time, this is how I do it with fountain pens. They almost feel made for lefties.
Most people ask if it hurts when I write. Decades ago I decided to basically write upside-down. I turn the paper the opposite direction you’re saying then curl my hand essentially pulling the pen. I fill out door hangers for my job and I hold them upside-down on my leg and fill them out. Customers often ask how the hell I do it lol. I’m like, necessity my friend.
More often than not gently heating the tip of the pen with a lighter will revitalise it. It’s worth a shot before throwing it out.
Uniball eye fine
I’ve used the same one for 3 years at work and it only just started to run out, so I got another.
This is how to draw “frustration” for Pictionary.
