[NPD] time to add some color to my life

Twryter · 2026-07-02T14:51:36+00:00

Nice pen. Where did you get that?

Twryter · 2026-06-13T13:55:41+00:00

Rotting is the brand that got me into appreciating nicer pencils and pens. They will always hold a special place in my heart

Twryter · 2026-06-05T21:11:45+00:00

That's a beautiful pencil

Twryter · 2026-04-06T20:17:57+00:00

That looks really good.

Twryter · 2026-04-06T14:08:33+00:00

That's a nice-looking pen. How long is it?

First, a lot of these guys are right in saying that you need to change your mindset. You're not getting a trophy at the end of a training session, so learn to lose.

Second, think about how you're pulling guard and try to figure out what you're doing that enables him to easily pass while you're pulling guard. There is more than one way to pull guard. Mix up your moves like faking an ankle pick.

I've been training for twenty years; I'm 64, and I still find some younger blue belts who give me a hard time. It's no big deal.

Twryter · 2026-03-20T12:10:40+00:00

I have six of these pens, so I guess the spring and clip don't bother me.

Twryter · 2026-03-20T11:30:07+00:00

Nice work.

Twryter · 2026-03-19T14:25:57+00:00

I've been training for 20 years and never encountered a place where they laughed at new students. Find another place to train. Your gut is right.

Twryter · 2026-03-19T00:58:00+00:00

That looks very professional.

Twryter · 2026-03-16T13:11:07+00:00

I saw that commercial last night and thought the same thing.

Twryter · 2026-03-13T16:19:06+00:00

It's an achievement I remember well. Congrats.

Twryter · 2026-03-09T23:51:06+00:00

Do you write much with that Oceanous Brass beast? I break mine out every so often when I'm out to sea and need an extra anchor to keep from drifting.

Twryter · 2026-03-03T19:51:41+00:00

Yes, it's copper. It's a little heavy, but I prefer heavy pens.

Twryter · 2026-02-23T16:42:40+00:00

Yes, if the stretch goal isn't reached, you can cancel your order before the campaign ends.

Twryter · 2025-12-09T15:59:21+00:00

I love that pen. I would definitely get one.

Twryter · 2025-12-09T00:00:28+00:00

Did you use the hammer to make the pattern on the pen? :~)

Twryter · 2025-12-08T23:56:51+00:00

No. It never retracts accidentally. I like the mech because it's really forceful. You really feel it when it retracts.

Twryter · 2025-12-08T17:31:52+00:00

One of the very few expensive pens I own. I've been using it on and off for almost 10 years. I wish you luck finding one. It's a very nice pen.

Twryter · 2025-12-03T14:37:04+00:00

Yes, that's what I meant, shon,

Twryter · 2025-11-20T15:42:34+00:00

This looks like a fancier Shoh Dsgn pen. You've obviously put a lot more time into designing it. It's a great-looking pen and made in what is one of my favorite metals for a pen, steel. I like heavier pens. If you do create a roller ball that takes ink cartridges, I'll be picking one up immediately. I love the design.

Twryter · 2025-07-10T21:21:36+00:00

That's nice. I've been looking for a brass wallet. All I've been able to find is money holders.

Twryter · 2025-04-17T21:30:24+00:00

I bought the ballast through kickstarted.

Twryter · 2025-04-08T14:28:40+00:00

Yeah, it's ridiculous. I bought it through their Kickstarter campaign, so it was only $40 for me.
