When I'm reading forum posts, a word or phrase will trigger a "literal" reaction in my brain...  For example, at some point, someone must have said something about having "a thirsty fountain pen" which triggered this:

large.ThirstyFPSmall.jpg.7e327eef39f8d5e8ba568d7e32d13e3e.jpg

 

I have several of these sorts of doodles.  I'm thinking maybe other folks do, too, and I'd love to see them.  So please, post your stick-drawings, whether in response to a word / phrase, making up your own funny, or whatever. :)

Does this qualify?

 

Attempting a PR deadlift during the weekend. I had hurt my back when I had tried the same weight in April. Scared. Anxious. Excited.

:D Perfect!  You did a really good job on his expression.

Here's another example, the result of reading "flippant" (or possibly the misspelled "flipant" - can't remember):

Not best, but latest. I was musing about The Lord of The Rings, and realized that the inscription in the One Ring must have been written with a BIC:

Done with a Montblanc Slimline with an F nib and a Kuretake red lacquer fude (brush) fountain pen in the spur of a moment.

I endeavour to be frank and truthful in what I write, show or otherwise present, when I relate my first-hand experiences that are not independently verifiable; and link to third-party content where I can, when I make a claim or refute a statement of fact in a thread. If there is something you can verify for yourself, I entreat you to do so, and judge for yourself what is right, correct for valid. I may be wrong, and my position or say-so is no more authoritative and carries no more weight than anyone else's here.

Alternative literal interpretation, triggered by someone asking how a part of a pen feels:

Apparently we need to have a Zoom stickman drawing class.  Maybe we can get @Tas to teach it.  Later, @Andrew_L can do an "Advanced Stickmanery" session... :D 😇

 

Here's another - someone mentioned "carbon dating":

      My thoughts on sharing ink samples by post

      By halffriedchicken · Posted

      Not sure if this has been suggested already but would a setting for localized regions or chapters in FPN be helpful? I don't know if there is a way to find local FPN members who would be nearby. I don't know if we want to be discoverable but a setting to know how many members are in 25, 50, or a 100 miles of each other might be helpful. We can create a regions specific network like Craigslist where people could use that to connect with nearby members, conduct in person sales, arrange FPN meetups

      Hi again all, I forgot to tell y'all that I made the post about Sweden ink PIF. Most have probably found it long ago, but here's a link, anyway:

      I read your blog post and all the replies with much interest. I'm a FP user in Australia. Been part of this forum for years but rarely post. I did come across your ink sharing thread and considered participation. For me it's not lack of interest but lack of time to play around with FP and inks. I'd feel bad to put my hand up for the box and just have it sit until gosh knows when...   I also think that the FP community in Australia is smaller, and I wonder how many in the community are

      Even so, you'd end up with a fragmented list, and it becomes an O(N²) process for each prospective requestor to check what is available: effectively recreate the list of currently active servers (without any reliable up-to-date info upfront about the inks and number of samples on offer in the thread) from the sequential list of posts, which may be spread over two or even more pages, and then query each server independently to check what is currently on offer.   It comes down to not hav

      If one wanted to do this, one could just use the "About Me" field which appears to be unlimited in size.  And if a bunch of people wanted to cooperate, the Member Title field (or signature) could be used to this end - "Ink Giver" (or some such) could be used by those with inks to give...  No software edits required.
