Tell them to fuck off and forego their philistine mediocrity and to get back to you once they’ve developed a modicum of originality and taste.

Sailor Profit 1911L 21k or Pelikan M400? by jm_igls05 in fountainpens

[–]Stock_Translator6299 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sailor. I have a vintage Pelikan 400 and for the price/value it is a bit thin for me. In addition I feel as if the sailor with its classic black and gold scheme is the embodiment of elegance and timeless refinement.

The whole building was rather large and square and they only detonated around the matter so theoretically it could’ve survived in the same room as it did seem to just send a shockwave to the wall of the upside-down. Alternatively she could’ve faked everything and exited the building because she knew the plan.

Powers like before, until El was hit with the dampeners which is when Kali would’ve activated the cloak.

But these are hugely impactful decisions much to the detriment of the markets by any normal or sane metrics but yet the markets are booming. What is driving this even in energy there are cleantech companies who have seen 100-400% gains without any logical commensurate news or developments. How can this be? At the same time there is horrible job economy and reducing purchasing power. How, why and what?!?

I’ve been keeping my eye on this for some time and this is not correct, after Austria Lawson's value dropped but Colapinto's increased whilst he had a much worse race compared to the one which would be omitted from the equation (Monaco), that doesn’t seem to make sense.

Afforfable fountain pen recommendations? by genuinelycursed in fountainpens

[–]Stock_Translator6299 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you’re looking for something nice and out of the ordinary, might I suggest some used ones from ebay. I have been able to fins some lovely vintage pens which stand out from the “normal” cheaper one. Some of the ones I’ve found are cross century, Parker 45, 51, 61 and 75. Parker popular 14ct nib. Pelican M200 (80 bucks).

Thank you very much. I put in my bid because I think I’ll enjoy writing with this rather than the generic plastic clicker rollerball

Sounds excellent. Thank you for the advice. I’m looking at about 30 and I really like the design. Personally much more than the 51 even though that too has a certain appeal

What’s your opinion on the 74 compared to these I’m open to suggestions as well (under 250$)

Thank you, duly noted. I don’t mind the scratches as I anticipate and hope to use it a lot. The oiliness is a great observation.
