Is there a difference between #1 and #2?

Please answer fast, I am sitting on the urinal.

[–] accideath@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Can I just have a Parker IM Ballpoint? I hate plastic pens.

I already mainly write with #1s

[–] Kalcifer@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Given my personal preference for the Uniball Vision Needle (not pictured), I'll go for 1.

[–] Wetstew@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

2 or 3.

I use to love G2's, but they fell off. I found a sharpie pen a while back and was shocked by how well it wrote, it's now my goto.

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.

[–] JaymesRS@literature.cafe 3 points 1 week ago

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.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I have several boxes of Uniball Eco. The ink dries fast enough lefties can write without smearing. Also it looks sleek and professional.

[–] hardcoreufo@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Probably 1 or 2 would be my style.

[–] stoy@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Number 6, I like how the ink flows

1 looks the most balanced to pen spin with the least egregious lapel.

[–] zipzoopaboop@lemmynsfw.com 4 points 1 week ago

4, those pens are so smooth

[–] ramenshaman@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

I guess 3. Any of these pens would dry up as soon as I touch it. Graphgear 500 0.9mm drafting pencil for life.

[–] peteypete420@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 week ago

5 has the ink i use, the g2 whatever. But I use it in the fat Dr. Grip pen, cause of my old hands.

[–] starman2112@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 week ago

Anyone saying anything but #7 is delulu. There's a reason Bic won pens

[–] Wanpieserino@lemm.ee 4 points 1 week ago

3, it's the easiest to activate and handle

[–] anomoly_@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

I'm lamenting the fact that this scenario means I've lost all my fountain pens, but I'd go with #5 in a .38

[–] fmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.com 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

The real question: Is that Pilot G7 a 0.10 or a 0.07? Very different pens. 0.7 ftw

[–] TheLowestStone@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago (2 children)

None of those. I exclusively use Pentel Energels. Prior to that it was Uniball Signo. Up your own game OP.

[–] Tedesche@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The G-2 will take EnerGel refills. Best of both worlds IMO.

7, because they don't feel special. I never have to fret about my brain wanting to save them for special occasions.

[–] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago (4 children)

I'm the only one going for #4? It's a uni ball vision elite, and I have about ten refills right now. Have had that barrel for the last fifteen or so years.

[–] lovely_reader@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

People must not know. #4 is where it's at.

Probably 2, 6, or 7. I've always loved the V5/V7, but the liquid ink is messy, a bic is a classic for a reason, and the PaperMate flair has been my go-to felt-tip for a long time now. Though, the ultra-fine version is much better for writing than the medium one.

  1. Fisher space pen

I keep one at my desk and have one in my pocket (most of the time).

It's 2 for me, always so reliable and write very clean

[–] Dunbar@lemm.ee 3 points 1 week ago

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.

[–] JoMiran@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 week ago

I've written on Cross since middle school (1980s)..

  1. I very specifically use these. They're pretty similar to the Pilot pens though.
