This is what worked for me back when I had my G 3 <| sep |> Ouch . That ' s what I get for trusting the estimate in my head instead of looking things up . Anyway it ' s not economically feasible now , but at least it ' s possible . <| sep |> I rarely use pens at home , so I go with a Bic . I have 3 in my drawer and have had them for years . They ' re dirt cheap , get the job done , last me 5 years or more because of how little I use them . I wouldn ' t see the point of paying big bucks for a fountain pen when it ' s functionally equivalent to a 20 cent Bic . I ' d rather save my money , and don ' t need to be putting on airs for anyone . <| sep |> A team isn ' t just a sum of its parts . Eager beat them by strategy , not because they ' re more skilled individually .
