Hmm, what have we here?

This was like a few months ago, someone try it out.

This is true.

Also, using Chrome, you can play a minigame with the Chrome dinosaur, while waiting for a page to load.

Okay then, lifehack: buy a $10 set of number stamps and stamp your own pencils, saving pennies (if you stamp and use 2000 pencils)

Throwing that around will gently caress up the lead inside though, making it break apart once you sharpen it.

I used to do exactly this to roll up Shadowrun characters during study hall and detention. I didn't have fancy pre-numbered ones, so I'd just write on one pencil with another.

Opposite the one pip would be six and opposite the five would be two. I see no problem with this pencil die.

I hadn't considered that setup, it's definitely a good one. It's also possible that's what's actually on the pen, based on what we can see.
