I know, but both are important. I mean, say that you're a car salesman, and you're trying to sell as many cars as possible, and keep getting repeat customers. Obviously, the customer won't think, "hey, he's a great salesman, and they have great cars, but what a crappy pen, no thanks!". But, he will subconsciously probably think of him as less professional. And that hurts Yes, it's a very small detail that in and of itself won't make a huge difference. But the small things add up. Think of it this way: when was the last time an executive order was signed with a Bic pen? They realize it's an important occasion, and they don't want an unaesthetic, unimportant pen to be signing those orders with. Obviously, football coaches aren't signing any executive orders, but I think that a man should always have a great pen on him (especially as a pragmatic suit accessory). Again, not saying it should be even close to the first thing on your mind, but when the choice comes down to literally moving your hand a foot over to get the better pens, get them. Being well-groomed + well-dressed + having a great pen (?) = success Its not gonna matter what kind of pen you're using when... Nomination for top 10 post of all time. But seriously, I'm half wondering if murdr made up the homeless thing, if he's actually worried about being on Huey, and writing about pens.

I could go into why I believe it, but I'll say that I think having a great pen is important, and gives a great impression when signing documents in person. It shows that you care, and it shows status. I'm about my reputation more than anything else, and something as stupid as using a crappy pen can subconsciously make people think less if you. No joke. Image is important in the long run. I lose pens all the time. Give me the ten-pack of Bics for a dollar any day. To me my favorite type is the one that I remember to take out of my pocket before washing so it doesn't get ink on all my clothes. Besides, the last three times I signed official documents (buying and selling a house), they gave me some fancy pen to do it with. And I am pretty sure the realtors and banks were already happy with me because me signing those documents meant they were getting a lot of my money.

Image is important in the long run. Transitioning from a plea to save himself from homelessness to opining about the importance of owning a good pen...I nominate murdr as Coach Huey Troll of the Year. You are a god-damn evil genius, my man! I can not believe I missed this the first time around....
