0.5mm for #1 or #3.

Get that grubby ugly 0.7mm lead outta here.

Five, but I want the 0.9mm and not the 0.7.

I am a simple man. I see Ticonderoga, I choose Ticonderoga. I like ships and I cannot lie

There are no drafting pencils.

  1. I like the Zebra.Got them at Dollar Tree or one of the Dollar stores.
[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

Five. Tired but true.

Not sure I've ever seen #5 with the clip still intact.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Mine always stays intact. Until i let literally anyone borrow it. The worst is when you get it back and instead of being totally snapped off, it's just bent up to a 90⁰ angle, and then you have to snap it off yourself because you can never get it to lie flat again after that. That's why I would always keep a spare with the clip already fucked up in my bag when someone inevitably asked to borrow a pencil.

Zebra M-402, which I've used exclusively for at least 20 years. (The same one.)

Followed closely by the Ticonderoga.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

Dr. Grip. I love the "shake to advance" thing and the huge, squishy grip.

Option 0: Keyboard.

I cant write for shit, generally hurts my hand for anything beyond a short note.

If i don't have access to a keyboard something has gone catastrophically wrong in the world and I've likely got bigger problems.

Just gimme the damn wood pencil, #2

[–] sloppychops 4 points 3 months ago
  1. Always and forever.
[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Also, some of these options are not pencils. For a pen I'd go for 5/6.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

5 literally says pencil on it.

If I am somehow without my 0.9mm Graphgear 500 then I would have to go with 1.

Honorable mention: at one of my D&D sessions they had non-mechanical D&D pencils where each side had a number, effectively turning it into a d6.

5 all day every day.... .5mm would be more betta though

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

I have been using 3 for the last 6 or so years. I also like 1 and 4. Can't go wrong with 2.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

I've got to try #1

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

I used number 5 throughout high school and university and they always served me well. Sometimes I thought about trying the fancier ones with gel grips, but old reliable BIC was always there for me. I trusted the BIC. In a world of uncertainty, the BIC will never let you down (or run around and desert you)

#1 got me through college

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

#3 for me. Keeps my handwriting just a little bit more legible.

#4 doesn't work for my writing style it seems. I end up wearing large flats on the lead anyways.
