PC LOAD LETTER posted:Beautiful thanks. I've tried various fountain pens before in the past but never a glass one. I've heard they write the smoothest, better even than the best ball points. I have one. They're not as smooth as some fountain pens, and some people say they need to be sanded down when you get them. I find that the process of dipping and getting rid of the excess ink takes just long enough to interrupt my train of thought, but maybe I just need a thicker ink. But they look really pretty, and dipping is lots of fun. Why should you settle for 19th century technology when you can get 18th?

Okay, just spent too much money on a bottle of Iroshizuku. Thanks, fountain pen thread. Oh, and to the person who needs a nice purple ink, the Yamabudo is a nice deep magenta.

vigorous sodomy posted:I tried journaling for a while, and while it was cathartic at first, it soon became a chore. I also have a very boring/lovely life and it is sometimes depressing to write about how positively droll my life is, and like I said my penmanship sucks nards. My journals read like most facebook walls Why not keep a dream diary? It's never boring when the your dead grandfather's ghost is killing the members of your family in the form of a 10-year old homeless kid because you won't help him continue his insider trading plan from beyond the grave. Or something.
