Clicky pens...

The pen or the pencil? that has been a long outstanding question that writers have asked themselves. Of course it all depends on what you are writing, who is going to see/read it, and of course what is available at the time. If you are taking notes in a class, either one works well, but I prefer a pencil because it offers a chance to create works of art on my notes with ease of erasing if I screw up (artwork from my notes might be made available sometime... whether that is whenever I get time to do it, or when the flying pigs invade the earth and take all the worlds supply of apples for themselves, we shall see...) If the writing is in a journal, pen is best. Well designed pens that let ink flow freely make quick sloppy writing easy for all, and with all of the smudges, people won't be able to tell the difference between those and your tears that you cried over the cute boy that rejected you because you never talk to anybody and always wear black and sit in the corners taking notes on the movements of all the other kids in the school...

Well the point that I was going for was about the high and mighty clicky pen. It is the Excalibur of the world of pens. And some of the best that I have ever had came from banks that insist on trying to put all the info on the pens body, someday look with a magnifying glass and you can find and read all the terms of their loans there too. Don't think that all click pens out there are good, NO, most of them are directly designed by the devil himself to taunt the student, professional businessman, and the guy writing things in other peoples journals. I'm referring to the most simple form of the clicky pen; cap, shaft (no, not that black guy), and the clicker end piece that has the convenient plastic strip that gives you the ability to attach it to your pocket protector, be something to chew, on or hook onto your lip to keep it safe in class despite the looks from others thinking how cool you are for hanging your pen from your lips. These are the clicky pens of clicky pens. The James Bond of the writing tool world, and speaking of James Bond, you can make grenades out of them too if you are so inclined.

So it you ever are in a bank and see a stash of these pens, take one, they are free, or else I am wanted on numerous counts of theft, and try it out. Take it apart and look at how simple the whole contraption is, and shoot a spit wad at your sister while you're at it. If you don't fall in love with them at first click, don't tell me and ruin my dreams ok...
