12 inch pen...

[edible_hat]

... what?


At work, a lot of pens go missing. It turns out my boss has a habit of putting them in his pocket.

So I bought an oversized pen that's just under 12 inches long. I got it for a joke but it's surprisingly comfortable to use, and actually gets used more than the normal sized pens.

I'd post a picture but I've lost my memory card reader.

And a 12" pen is is indeed mighty.

Says the guy who's never tried to stab someone with a Bic. Hmph.

12 inches, huh?

I have a good idea what I could do with that 12 inches . . .I do have a desk big enough to write on.

I would've asked for the "This Thread Is Worthless Without Pics" smiley but we have pics so it's all good
I also had dirty thoughts at first about the fact that it's a 12" pen....

On-topic, pens tend to go walkabout at work because customers and/or staff nick them. I was on a certain checkout with the new hire the other night and was looking for pens. I open the drawer and I found 5 pens total. I kid you not.

Not so! But because of the way you have to hold the pen to get enough force to puncture skin, you can't reach the really interesting stuff without a lot of extra work with a normal sized pen. (Relax, it was gel practice dummy with faux skin.) It is better to stab with a good sword, or at least a dirk. Of course, The axe kicks the sword and the pen's ass, so the point is moot.

Grosse Point Blank. Cusack kills a guy with a pen to the throat.

Someone should open a pen store called Penisland.

It already exists. Pen island. The URL was penisland.com. I don't know if that's what it still is.
