BTW I read a comment on Reddit explaining why the Americans didn't use pencils. I don't know if it's true but it definitely makes sense.

The reason is because the graphene in pencils break off tiny particles when writing that will float around in the spaceship possibly ruining something. Which isn't the exactly the best situation you'd want to be in while in space.

So one of the things that I don't like about most pens is that if you write upside down or even sideways it will stop writing after a couple of words.

I saw some people say that felt tipped pens can solve the problem. Since it doesn't really on gravity as much.

Bought these in dollar tree and it works perfectly upside down only slightly less bold.

Not upside down but tilting up. Enough that it makes me want to avoid it.

Pens are much clearer. Don't have to sharpen or refill. Can work on more surfaces.

Top of the line, buy by the case from costco what ever they have when I need more.
Love ink, but in moderation.
(INKY Pens, yes inks needed for a pen to work, but in reference to Uniball some are loaded weapons,that explode everywhere and some just the right amount.)

Time for a toothbrush thread! Hands down only the Colgate 360 brushes WITH the tongue cleaner!
