QOTD: January 21st

Favorite color/kind of pen to use? 

Re: QOTD: January 21st

  • I prefer black but often times have to use blue.
  • Medium nib fountain pen with black ink.

    If I'm out of ink in it, I grab a roller ball.

  • I will only write in black ink, i hate blue ink (for absolutely no reason).  This may sound odd, but the pens that we steal from the hotel rooms at the Borgata are really good!!  They write really smooth etc..  odd huh?  (but it is my personal belief that everything is better at the Borgata lol)
  • Black.  I absolutely hate blue pens.  I try to avoid using them at all costs.  I'm strange...
  • blue papermates, there is a certain one that I love and when the ink runs out, I take the ink from a different pen and refill my pen.
  • I also have a weird, unexplained hatred for blue pens.  I'm quite fond of my hot pink pen that has my name on it, it's black ink.
  • I love blue pens. Black is boring. Stick out tongue

    At school I mainly use a Papermate Profile pen in blue, but will sometimes use one of those pens that has 4 different colors. I prefer fatter pens. I hate writing with skinny ones!

  • I find that I'm always using a TD Bank pen.  Maybe it's because they are free and a ton of them always end up on my desk.

    In college I was in love with zebra pens.

  • My pens that I hand out at bridal shows are my favorite of course!  They are bics, white w/a pink cap and my company info on them.  The only thing is the ink is black & I prefer blue.  They write nice and smooth though.
  • Right now I'm in love with the Papermate medium ballpoint pen in black. I tend to go through pen phases...I know I'm weird.

  • it's a black gel pen, not sure of the "type"
  • Blue ballpoint. I don't know why, but I hate black ink.
  • I don't discriminate. Right now I'm using blue, but I use black too. My favorite pens are these Pentel EnerGel pens I order from work. And I have a good Cross pen that they gave me for presenting at a training that I keep in my purse - I like that one, too.
  • I prefer blue ink but right in whatever is closest to me.  In catholic elementary school we could only write in blue ink so i'm suprised i don't hate it. My favorite pens are my fine point scrapbooking markers (ZIG memory system).  I use them for everyday things because I'm a lefty and most other pens cause me to smear ink over whatever I'm writing.

  • BIC round stic grip in BLUE/FINE. ?Not medium because it makes my writing look sloppy.

    Or a pencil. ?I love writing in pencil.?

  • i love both actually. i usually end up grabbing a black pen tho. and in high school and college it was always pentel rsvp in medium :) i enjoy that brand in pink as well, favvvv color.
  • I like blue papermate pens. I REALLY prefer blue over black. Purple if possible. I also like gel pens, but the papermate ones get stolen less frequently.
  • I will grab a pencil way before grabbing a pen, but if I have to use a pen I like green pens or the marker type pens.  If I need it for something legal I will use any black (not blue) pen around.

  • I'm a blue ink kind of gal ;)

    I think some of that stems from having to sign in blue to distinguish between originals and copies here at work.

  • Never really thought about it.  I guess just plain old black.
