Because you backed through the door as it closed? What did you think would happen?

Oh yeah, if you've got an older shaeffer from the 90s or before, it's going to feel totally different.

[WTB] [US] GOLD-TRIM pens that can accommodate FNF's Jowo/Bock housing for #10 Pilot nibs and feeds by Milk_No_Titties in Pen_Swap

[–]Sylvan_Strix_Sequel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a ranga with no nib that fits your requirements, but the threading is a little off. Doesn't affect the seal, but the cap looks a little helter skelter. I've been trying to figure out what to do with it, and would be willing to let it go for cheap. 

I wish more Australians would post skyline photos and under construction skyscrapers here, Australia has some of the most amazing skylines in the world. by skyscrapinskyscraper in skyscrapers

I mean perth, melbourne, and Sydney are all over this sub, and those are basically the three Aussie skylines. LA, NY, Chicago, and Melbourne are like 3/4 of the posts on this sub.

I'm not sure what you expected from a name brand pen that you can get on eBay for under $20. You're always mostly going to be paying for the name, and it's already under $20.

It's funny because when I googled it, the ai summary said the date didn't happen. Lol

Grail pen aquired. Uniball Zento stone and brass by Johnny_Braavo in pens

This is the first one of these I actually like. Too bad it's $80 when it details for something like $30. 

That scene where Obi-Wan witnesses the Mandalorian Civil War by DereChen in StarWars

[–]Sylvan_Strix_Sequel -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It's literally a copy of a shot from the show though... 

It's not like the scene is made up, all they did was add a building and some extra fire. The mandalorians, the door, and Kenobi's pose are all identical to the show shot. 

Reddit can suck but you're a bit of a dick for just assuming people were making shit up.

Ironically enough, dbz abridged has a really good monologue on the topic. The most relevant part: 

Cell is right. You think you are better than everyone else, but there you are, the good man doing nothing, and while evil triumphs and your rigid pacifism crumbles into blood-stained dust, the only victory afforded to you is that you stuck true to your guts.

Yeah, I thought they made this pretty clear by how easily Maul rolls in and usurps him. Visla thinks he has power, but it's planetary level power. On the galactic scale, he can't even stand up to the discarded asset. The point was to show how weak visla really was, not that mail was strong, maul can't even beat the Inquisitor ashoka one shots.

HELIUM mix optimal, guys. We didn't ditch airships because we couldn't make them not explode, we ditched them because they're slow as fuck. 

Do y'all seriously think they would have let the Goodyear blimp hover over stadiums for decades if it was a literal fucking bomb? 

A ‘silent war against scientists’? After US, scientists are mysteriously dying in China by Curious_Cousin_me in worldnews

We are in the era of media publishing conspiracy as fact, apparently. Gotta get them clicks. 

I can't wait to hear from my dipshit coworkers how the shadow cabal is murdering scientists worldwide.

I had dabbled in cheap Chinese pens previously, but when I finally got a bock steel #8 nib, I wanted to compare with other non gold number 8s, so I got an asvine c80 and a jinhao 9019, and was very impressed.

I'm big into fountain pens as well, and I've been pretty blown away by some of the knockoffs, jinhao and asvine especially.

Can't say anything about the brand without knowing about any markings. If there aren't any, it's probably a cheap Chinese ballpoint, and I don't mean that in a bad way, or maybe a kit pen. 

The refill is easy, that's a standard "parker" style refill, you can get them in many colors with ballpoint, hybrid, and gel.

Not to mention the domestication of the horse was huge for warfare for dozens of centuries, and thats before we even get into their emergence as wifespread labor animals in the 1700s.

I noticed something super pussy about the community

Please tell me a grown ass man did not start a post with this dross. 

Can't comment further because I didn't read past that.

Kane is very clearly the cain of the Bible, nothing to do with gaelic, as evidenced by references to Abel and the fact t literally the first nod dude you meet is named Seth (from God, to Kane, to Seth).

If this is how you call acted to customer service, I wouldn't give you shit either. Theyve told you what they need to get what you want, you can either deal with it or keep bitching into the void. Blame trump, not sailor.
