[QUOTE=Josiah]It's all about the use of pens.


When you guys get to college, you'll learn. Pen on everything. Blue or Black.

Then you can have a cool pen collection and use a different rad pen every day.


I'm so academia, I work at a highschool school and go to college. Though I get hit on a lot at the highschool, always good for the ego.[/QUOTE]


yep. professors wont accept work if its in pencil. only in pen. i broke out of using pencils my soph year in highschool. i hate pencils now. i dont even jot down a single note in pencil...it has to be pen.

KWG 08-31-2005 06:13 PM

but with pencil you have so much more controll!!!!

Epiphender 08-31-2005 06:20 PM

Haven't you guys handed anything in to your math teacher before? They won't even look at it if it's in pen.

poppinfresh 08-31-2005 06:51 PM

haha even when i use pencil i cross everything out, it doesnt matter anymore.

KWG 08-31-2005 07:20 PM

yea and when using scantron test dealy things you can only use pencil cause the machine won't read pen........plus you can draw better pictures with pencil!!!

TheClash6412 08-31-2005 07:27 PM

Double Bass Jim 08-31-2005 07:28 PM

You guys know that trick with mechanical pencils?

You put a little bit of the lead out and put your thumbnail right on it with some pressure, I used to shoot those things into peoples necks in class all the time :lol:

The Fiction We Live 08-31-2005 07:30 PM

Hahahahaha I see you sitting in the back of a classroom right now being 22 and shooting lead at kid's necks. :lol:

Teacher: "Double Bass Jim WHAT DID I TELL YOU?!?! GET OUT NOW!"

Same... my english teacher stopped giving out papers that could be hand written last year... but it gave me more time to do it so it helped us more than it hurt.

Mechanical Pencils are my favorite personally. My main one is one I've had for 12 years!

The Fiction We Live 08-31-2005 07:44 PM

I love mechanical pencils.. regular ones suck... all that sharpening.

Does anyone else write in all caps?? Like this:

theres also that bic pencil thing. If you take off the ends where the lead comes out theres that little thing that pushes the lead out. You take that open it up by pushing on the top end then you put a half folded staple in it and that jams the thing so to shoot you just pull on the clicky part on the end. we used to do that to peoples legs, its painful thoguh and a little dangerous.

KWG 08-31-2005 07:56 PM

no no, the best pencils are the mars lunagraphic (blue with black on the top) drafting pencils, i've had 1 for three years and its still half its original size.

KWG 08-31-2005 08:03 PM

Yeah, they're German made.

:lol:

How often do you sharpen? Are you one of those guys who sharpens as soon as the tip begins to lose its point?

stabbinspaghetti 08-31-2005 08:06 PM
