I’d rather fucking kill myself.
Definitely 2. Sharpening is such a nice break from writing.
This is the real personality tests, fuck Myers-Briggs and astrology. I need to know your choices for stationary.
3 Kuru Toga. Every time
Can I just use a pen?
The Pentel Graphgear 1000 is great. I love how it retracts.
Why are we ignoring the diameter?
The lead diameter.
6, cause it’s a gel pen. For a pencil, not really bothered by these options…probably 2.
6 is a mechanical pencil.
I’m a pen/pencil freak who’s spent an amazing amount of money on them, and I’d choose 2.
Also, some of these options are not pencils. For a pen I’d go for 5/6.
5 literally says pencil on it.
They all look like pencils to me.
If I’m only allowed one type of pencil it’s good old #2 (I’m more of a pen snob)
Staedtler 35-05B but I guess 3 looks closest so I’ll take that
#6 because I need all that extra eraser
I would suggest that the Dixon Ticonderoga is the most reliable, most cost-efficient, and easiest-to-use writing utinsil in the history of humanity.*
Each other option has more points of potential failure and additional complexities over the Ticonderoga. While more complicated tools may net you some improvement in writing style or sharpness, they are massive trade-offs in more basic areas.
This would be much the same question if it were “what car would you drive for the rest of your life” between fancy ones like Ferraris and Lambos to cheaper, more reliable ones like Corollas and Civics. Everyone likes the look of the Ferrari – but the only car for the rest of your life? It’s got to be reliable, or you’re going nowhere. You want to be able to keep driving.
The Ticonderoga guarantees you can keep writing.
*intentionally overselling it for humor. But it is a nice, simple, good-quality pencil.
none of the above of i may. i choose this:
