Disposable pens: line up the cap, or no?

Post Reply New Topic

I keep all my pens in the same place. I call it "the Earth."

I have to toss the caps or I'll eat them. The barrel has to be somewhat flexible so they don't just shatter when I bite them. I also have to have them where ever I might conceivably need to use one, because I lose them (or destroy them)

Do you chew the blue stopper on the end too?
(I hope you know what I mean.)

yes, I do...I've choked on an end cap when it shot off and hit the back of my throat while I was biting on the end.

And I love legos...they're crunchy

You have good taste.


Now I'm determined to see if I can find one of those pen carcasses in the house. ^


I've never done Legos. Hmmm ... may be a bit thick for my liking.

My favorite is the 1 x 8

I was pleasantly surprised to find two collections of pens, even though they're totally disorganised and they were in my dining room buffet alongside china dishes and serving spoons. There are some markers in there too, so I guess I need to weed them out and put everything wrong-side up for Raleigh's and the OP's approval.





Pity. There must be a mouse in the house.




Currently rechewing the red one but dreaming of the blue.

I buy refills for my disposable pens and line those up. I care a great deal about the environment.

I use these. Pens where I can feel the ballpoint rolling as I write are one of my pet peeves.

I personally prefer those .7mm Zebra pens. They're very affordable, but I can write so small with them that I can't read what I've written without a magnifying glass. And, I doubt very much that you'd feel the ballpoint rolling across the page. The pens are really intended for writing intricate Kanji, so anything that you're likely to want to write is going to be nice and clear.

I’ve used nicer pens and they do feel nice and write really well…until they don’t. I don’t find them any more reliable than the disposable ones, so now I just use the disposable ones.

Eggs…

Yea, I do that, too. I consume them in a symmetric pattern Not only does it look more pleasing, the carton is balanced when I pick it up.

I do eggs from the outside left and right working inward, to keep the box balanced by weight.

I do that too, and re-arrange them as the box empties (or move them to a smaller one (I have 24,18,12, and 6 count egg boxes)

Depends on where my mind is when I remove the cap. I have no disposable pens in my house with caps on, but couldn't tell you where the caps are. I would only line up the clip if I was using the pen as a distraction item rather than a pen, otherwise where did I put the cap?

I do have a fidget pen but it stays in it's box otherwise I would lose all the moving bits.
