jokes on you, #2 have already been besties for 10+y
Retractable version is superior
You’re not wrong, but I don’t see it pictured
It’s not.
0/10 list. no v5 rt
Pilot G2 and BIC are both classics, but I’m a sucker for a liquid ink pen
I’ve written on Cross since middle school (1980s)…
None of these are fountain pens, the obviously superior choice over ball-points.
Platinum Preppy. Cheap and cheerful with the capability of taking a converter, different nips, and being converted into a refillable marker. Amazingly versatile pen.
Hear, hear!
- It’s basically the only kind of pen I use anyway.
Uniball Signo 207
Writes easy and the ink is bold and dries fast. Comfortable enough for having to write 7 pages of client notes every night, even with my arthritic hands.
This is the true answer. The 207/207+ ink is the greatest. The sharpie pens are close though, especially with the weight of the metal barrel.
When I was a server, I only used Number 3, but it has to be the 0.5 size. 0.7 still smears too much.
3, it’s the best one I recognise
Thank you, I agree.
Where is the fountain pen??
- I very specifically use these. They’re pretty similar to the Pilot pens though.
I once bought a pack of maybe 40 number 7 in all 4 colors, I am basically committed for life.
But these fuckers dry out if you don’t use them for a long time, I had to throw away a bunch. I tried receiving some by soaking them in Isopropyl alcohol, it worked for some but not all.
Can I just have a Parker IM Ballpoint? I hate plastic pens.
Number 6, I like how the ink flows
You’re deplorable for this choice. 6 is the worst!
1 & 2 top picks, then 6 & 7. The rubber sleeves are nice for short notes and whatnot. They get slippery from sweating eventually. Maybe just a me thing.
