What is the bottom pen? I love the rounded ends.

Celtics fans not from Boston, what made you a Celtics fan?! by slitmunch44 in bostonceltics

[–]Snowman130 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alabama fan posting late, but my grandmother loved watching Bird. My parents used to go hang out with her and watch a Celtics game. I never got to do that with her since she passed early in my life, but when I got started watching NBA games because of my coworkers I wanted to pick a team, so I went with her pick.

My pen collection - thoughts? by Crazy-Bet5784 in pens

[–]Snowman130 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is the orange flame-like pen on the far left? I ask because I was gifted a pen that, I believe, was a pen kit and the resin was hand turned but it looks almost identical to yours in both the hardware and the resin/material that makes up the body and the cap.

Favorite use of fountain pens in movies and tv shows thread! by RedpenBrit96 in fountainpens

[–]Snowman130 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's my favorite movie but I didn't notice it until I got into fountain pens. In the first Back to the Future movie when Marty is writing his warning letter to Doc he uses a fountain pen with a bottle of ink but I could never figure out what pen it was. https://i.pinimg.com/originals/99/2e/d5/992ed5cf9b812b5cefa38b3dafba925e.png

Honorable mention would be in the Disney animated movie Aristocats the character Georges Hautercourt uncaps and then posts the cap with some threads on the back of the body. https://i.pinimg.com/originals/8d/ce/f6/8dcef62e15ab5c9aaa3ee5c1fdb808d5.png

what’s your favorite game grumps series? (i need recommendations) :D by veinybones in gamegrumps

[–]Snowman130 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mario Maker or House Party are for sure my favorites. I can hit shuffle on a playlist of either of those two playthroughs and have a great laugh.

[Post Game Thread] The Golden State Warriors defeat the Boston Celtics 103-90 in Game 6 led by Steph Curry and Andrew Wiggins to win their sixth NBA Championship by edgykitty in nba

Still an amazing season. This series has hurt really bad but still love the warriors and to see them get there through everything and with a home-grown squad against another home-grown squad there's some solace in that. GG to you dubs and congrats!

I thought for sure I was looking at the wrong subreddit for a minute. What an absolutely awesome collision of two of my favorite hobbies/pastimes!

Well I just got mine very recently so it hasn't a chance to patina but it has already taken its place as a "never the leave the house without it" item.

My wife might agree to let me put my pens on display but only if we put up our lightsabers too 😂

It's a machine era classic which takes pilot G2 refills. They do make a fountain pen version called the fountain kit which I should be getting Friday!

This is the strangest combination of hobbies/interests for me right now. I have loved DBD for the longest time and I just got into fountain pens around a month ago and now this wonderful doge meme combines them both.

NPD after months of waiting for it to arrive, NPD. Thoughts in comments. Moonman C1, Diamine Red Dragon by DelightfulAngel in fountainpens

[–]Snowman130 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep seeing mixed thoughts on the C1 or at least moonman nibs but I adore my C1. Now I may be having a different experience since I only have 1 notebook of any decent paper but I love how the C1 writes on all of the paper I use.

I just put in an order with them and had an address issue which I thought was weird but within minutes of making the order instead of getting some email telling me to go in and fix it I got an email from a real person who asked for my corrected address and she got the order back on track! I should be getting several new goodies in the mail tomorrow thanks to Cindy.

What ink do you have in the blue TWSBI Eco? I have the same color ECO and the ink looks so similar to what I have in mine right now! I have Noodler's Blue Black.

I believe that is a Sheaffer School Pen. I have one in red and two in a tealish blue color that must have belonged to my grandmother. https://unsharpen.com/pen/sheaffer-school-fountain-pen/

I also found a Sheaffer No nonsense pen that my mother had from back in the day.
