stationery

Ehh screw the feminism talks for now. Not because they're not important, but more because at this point in time I'm more likely to be an ass about it.

So, meaningless trivial posts for the time being, yah? =P

As you know I'm kinda anal about my stationery.

I usually only like to use one side of my rubber, and I never use the rubber on my pacer.

Now the first one is, as far as I'm aware, unique to me, but the second one, I swear nobody uses their pacer rubber. It's like. What you take out to put more lead in. When the rubber's a stump you can't take it out, and you're stuck with putting lead through the tip, which often breaks the lead. Plus the rubber looks ugly as fuck when it's been used.

The annoying thing is when people lose their morals regarding pacers just because it isn't their own pacer. It is so disheartening when I observe someone who doesn't use the rubber on the own pacer, but when I lend them one and I get my pacer back, and the rubber is all fucking deformed from being used. It wouldn't be as annoying if you just asked to use a normal rubber or something. It's not like the pacer rubbers were designed to erase - they just smudge and pretend to be cool.

Now back to the first one, about using one side of my rubber. This leaves one side of my rubber rounded off and dirty. The other part is PURE WHITE and still has crisp edges. What in the fucking world possesses you to think that I kept it in this condition just so you could use it?

When I was little my parents taught me to "Treat my own possessions carefully - but treat other's possessions even better."

Which means that I observe borrowed stationery for patterns of wear before using it =D. Because if I'm anal about my own stuff, then I ought to be anal about others too.


In conclusion
-Never use my pacer rubber
-My normal eraser will usually have a bias in wear and tear. One side (the larger bias) is when I use it, the other side (the very small bias) is when people charge ahead and use the nice part of the eraser and manage to use it for a few seconds before I rip their face off.
But atm I'm using an eraser that wasn't broken in by me, so it's like almost circular and I have no OCD attached to it. But when I get a new one... all beware!
-Also, never fold the casing on my iPod touch backwards, just let it hang.
