.// A Spoonful Of Sugar \\. Do You Feel Sorry For Telemarketers?
WELCOME
We all love Menewsha, and I love Menewsha. We all love talking on Menewsha, and I love talking on Menewsha. But sometimes it's hard to find a conversation. So here's my dream. My dream, is to have a hangout thread where there is always a conversation going on. My dream is to have a nice welcoming atmosphere for people to come to when they just want to have a conversation. My dream is when I log on I won't have to search for 30 minutes trying to find an active thread I'm interested in. My dream is a spoonful of sugar. In short. This is my dream. A hangout thread. THE COMEBACK TOUR After a long hiatus , due to poor internet connection, no amount of spare time, and an overall impatience with the online world, Sir.Spoon and all of his fun-loving goodness, is back and ready for some action! Consider this a momentous occasion. You could be a helping hand in the epic story of Sir.Spoon's Comeback Tour. How can I be a helping hand? I knew you might say that. Well, it's easy! All you have to do is post! In here, in this very thread, so that I [the comeback tour guy] have a message or a conversation to be involved in or with. Sweet Spooney Goodness! |
RULES
These are the rules of this thread to make sure that things are kept in an orderly fashion to encourage conversation and maintain a friendly atmosphere. :arrow: T.O.S is a must :arrow: No one word responses. We like to have some meaty posts in which provoke conversation :arrow: No internet drama. Take your beefs with someone to PMs or even better off the site. I don't want a thread full of verbal assaults. :arrow: I don't care what you talk about as long as it's appropriate These rules are viable to be changed at my will. Break them and you will be warned - break them again and you will be asked to remove yourself from the thread. I don't believe in black listing people; it brings on unnecessary shame. |
The Daily Dose
This is a topic that you can discuss if you have nothing else to talk about. It's a safety net that will catch you if you can't relate to a topic or whatever. I just thought it would be a cool idea. Today's Daily Dose is: What Is Your Favorite CI? |
Quest
Yes! I have a quest, and what a better place to but it than in my hangout thread! So this is my quest... Which I have aptly called. 'Everything in Moderation' Currently Questing:. Ninja's Arsenal. I have the funds. I just need a seller! DONE! |

I think I prefer a good gel pen as my writing tool. Pencils you always have to go sharpen a lot and regular pens can skip. Calligraphy with a dip pen is fun, too. |
Gel pens are sometimes too hard to read though. Especially the glittery ones. I want to buy some though...they're good for note writing.
Pencils are a pain in the but, I can never seem to distinguish what I'm writing. And now matter how hard I try it will never ever be neat. It smudges too easily as well. Calligraphy sounds difficult. |
Yes, you have to choose a gel pen color that is dark enough to see. They do dry out, though, which is a shame.
In calligraphy you let the pen do the work while you keep your hand steady. I'm not that good at it, and am very out of practice. |
But you can't just write with a calligraphy pen can you? Don't you have to do a step by step process for each letter?
|
There are different styles of calligraphy alphabets. Some are harder than others. Mostly you just write like you are printing - like in chansery cursive, gothic, or most unicals. Some styles you go back and add a decorative line, dot, jut, or second half to a line's foot to finish the foot stand. In copperplate it is more like cursive handwriting because you are using a narrow pen width rather than a thick one.
|
Sounds way to complicated for me. I like good old print. I can't really write in cursive, it looks horrible. And no one can ever read it.
it's the same result when I write on my tablet. ...I'm starting to think that was a waste of money. |
My handwriting isn't all that neat either. That is why I have only tried the simpler styles of calligraphy much. Like I said, you are basically just printing with a wide tip pen held at an angle.
I'm not good at drawing. |
I can't draw to save my life. I just do random sketches of creepy people. Not really good at all.
I don't know how people manage to make such fantastic art on their computers. It seems all to difficult for me. |
I like extra fine point pens. I like handwriting to be as neat as possible. Also, these kinds of pens let me write as tiny as I wish xD
Pencils smudge too much for my taste and are only good because you can erase your mistakes. |
Erasing is always good. But sometimes it makes things so messy. I hate messy.
I love fine tip pens! The one paper mate make are the best. I bought a set just recently and I've used them so much most of the ink is gone. The only problem with pens is I tend to get the ink all over my hands...and sometimes my face. |
On your face, Spoon? Goodness! 0.0 That is getting ink everywhere.
|
"Yeah, I'm a really messy writer. It's not my fault though...it's the pens.
|
Well, my mom usually buys cheapo pencils and so the erasers don't really work all that well >.>;
My problem is that my mom won't buy the fine point pens, so I have to use my own money to get them :'P But right now, I have this really nice one that I found one day. It's made by Pilot and I've never had a better pen =D |
Never heard of pilot pens. I usually stick with good old Bic bens. Can't go wrong with them.
My favorite are the push-clickity pens. Where you have to push down a button in order to write. They're my favorite. |
I like pens that write in different colors. I had one at one time that you could pick from four different colors to click on. I have also seen one that lets you choose from ten different colors.
|
That's got to be one giant pen.
I like novelty ones. Like a charlie brown pen I saw one day...his head was on the end. Kind of creepy. Kind of cool. |
I think it is one of the smaller pen companies out there. I don't really care either way as to clicky or not unless it has to do with where I am putting it. I don't want to get ink all over my bag or anything, so I generally don't put clicky pens in my messenger bag or purse.
This one isn't a clicky pen. |
Good point about clicky pens.
Ever had one blow up in your pocket? My jeans have red pockets now because of a red ink pen decided to erupt in there. |
Yes. It was a rather fat pen to fit all those colors in.
I hate when a pen leaks. |
It's the worst. Pen leakage is just as bad as a flooded basement.
I don't like how you can't really erase pens. I make mistakes alot - and this causes problems. |
