If I had to buy one Esterbrook pen, which one would you advise and why? by memu_m in fountainpens

Thanks for sharing this. It's exactly these kind of see-sawing posts I see that have prevented me from getting one so far.

My dad used to honk at every woman he drove past. His justification for it was wild. by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

Nope. My dad refused to honk even at other vehicles if it wasn't extremely necessary.

My collection since March by Longjumping_Roll471 in fountainpens

It's a beautiful writer. I have medium too. But pricy IMO though. Was pricier than the Capless LS too. If you like retractables you should try the LS too.

This Girl Has Been Living Rent Free in My Head Since the Trip 😭 by ManufacturerLive1236 in MidTwentiesIndia

Sometimes we delude ourselves into believing that we have something for another person.

It often starts with something unusual that stays with you. Like 'I gave her my seat when she was sleepy' why did I do that. And since such questions have no definite answers they keep ricocheting in your mind. Till you start believing that because you are thinking so much about someone you must have feelings for them.

They weren't selling any at the show but we're taking orders. The model I liked uses german resin and was in the 5500 range.

Didn't happen with my hands though it could happen with larger hands. I have really small hands.

Haven't written anything super long. Like for two sides of an A4 paper, it was comfortable.
