Pen caps

[Shawn]

These things always end up on the floor. Completely worthless. I just threw away about 20 of them and I don't miss them one bit. What are they for again?

Capping the pen

This. What's awesome is a lot of them have holes so if you accidentally swallow them you can still breathe. Now that I swallow them.

😕

Actually, all my pen caps have points on them.

Keeps you from spearing yourself in the scrotum.

But I do agree that they get lost way to easily. I prefer click type pens.

 

[mugs]

They're pointless until you STAB YOURSELF IN THE EYE with your pen.

Or until you want to put your pen in your pocket.

some people have better control than others. You are obviously the latter.

Strange, I manage to keep pen caps with their associated pens for years.

It was too easy...you walked into that one all by yourself 🙂

Originally all pens were uncapped with unlimited writing capability, but some pen manufacturers were upset with P2P (pen to paper) abusers who would write on paper far more than the average pen user, which resulted in a shortage of ink in those pens. Manufacturers started installing artificial caps to keep the pen use somewhat in line with the average. However, this measure has been criticized as being ineffective, as it's very easy for end users to remove the caps and make use of heavy P2P applications anyway, so some manufacturers have already abandoned the idea of capped pens.

Certainly keeps my fountain pen from easily getting ink all over me.
