Tear gas pens: Shoddy Goods 110
1I don’t think I want a tear gas pen, but it does make me think of all the silly novelty pens I’ve seen through the years. I mean, of course, the ‘flip the pen upside down and everyone’s clothes float off’, but after you’re 13 or so, that has less appeal. I loved those “6 colors in one” pens. I remain obsessed with space pens, where I can write upside down or under water or in space, all circumstances I continue to wait for. How about you, got any favorite pen, especially if it’s got any special features?

My favorite pen was at Pic ‘N’ Save in the 1970’s. It was a Snidely Whiplash spypen that shot those little plastic orange “bullets” about 3/4 inch long. It was obviously(?) a recall from shooting a kids eye out.
I made it worse by heating up a pin and pushing it through the plastic to make a dangerous dart.
I wish I had bought like 5 of them and kept a few in packages.
That’s the thing. If I could go back in time, I probably wouldn’t change history. I would just tell me to buy 2 of every toy and never unbox one of the toys …
/showme Worn out old man travels through time to the 1970s. Old man tells 10 year old version of himself to buy two of every Star Wars figurine and keep one sealed in original packaging box as an investment.

@cfg83 Speaking of orange bullets, these are what I mean …
