How do you sneek in your pen ?


goodguy

Recommended Posts

I just read a thread asking if I have a pen to hide and I was thinking-What is the best way to sneek a pen home ?

 

How about try to keep a strait face,leave the pen in the pocket and in the moment the wife is busy rush to the pen case and stick it in there.

 

How about the nonshalant approach.Walk in the house with the pen in your open hand and a bored look on your face making your wife think this is just one of the pens you own already ?

 

Any other good idea ?

 

Oh and no -tell your wife and be honest.I know that trick but when you just spent 400$ on a pen she will not appreciate your honesty too much and tonight you sleep on the couch :lol:

It's easy when you're the one home all the time and you make a habit of checking the mail. :)

 

Not as easy if it gets sent via UPS or FedEx on the very day your SO decides to come home early. :P

I am the one who gets the office mail at the post office and then hides the pens in the trunk until "the coast is clear".

Sounds like a divorce would be a good long-term solution. ;)

 

Sure and let your spouse ask for half your pen collection in the settlement!? Besides after a divorce who has any extra money for buying pens!!

What I always do (or did.. hmmm, perhaps a reason for the divorce!), is fill the new pen full of that tranquilizer stuff they shoot into Elephants on Wild Safari.. walk in the door, and throw it like a ninja dart right into the wife's hind quarters. A few minutes later, remove the pen from the soundly sleeping wife and nonchalantly walk the pen over to the collection.

 

Of course, when the wife wakes up, innocently ask why she decided to take a nap on the floor...

 

Now, if it's a good lever filler, you can simply fill with Chloroform and give a little squirt under the door prior to entering the house...

Man, I'd hate to see what you do to your wife when you need to bring home a new sports car. "Honey, why did you go into that two month coma?"

Everyman, I will go with thee

and be thy guide,

In thy most need to go

by thy side.

Here's a strategy that, uh, someone I know recently employed :rolleyes: :

 

1) Purchase an inexpensive pen, have it shipped to your place of work, and hide it in your big bag of junk (doesn't everyone have one of these wherever they go?).

 

2) When you get home, wait until no one is looking, then sneak the pen from the bag of junk to a high shelf in the closet behind some other junk.

 

2) Purchase an expensive pen, have it shipped home. When eyebrows rise at the sight of the package, say, "Hold on a minute, you have to see this...but let me get it all set up first! Stay right here, I'll be back in a second!"

 

3) Take the package, run up to the closet, open the package. Briefly admire the beautiful expensive new pen (don't take too much time). Hide it on the closet shelf.

 

4) Take down the inexpensive pen. Come running excitedly back out to waiting family and show them the beautiful new pen you got that was ONLY twenty bucks! :bunny01:

 

5) Only use the expensive pen to write in your journal after everyone else has gone to sleep.

 

Patent pending on this process. :roflmho: :thumbup:

Somehow, the best strategy to get back the affection of your loved one is simply to get a very nice paper and write a nice letter to her, then treat her to a good meal. You should be pardoned by then.

Some of these made me laugh out load. There are some out there who sneak around with a mistress and then there is this small, somewhat eccentric, group of lads from a small community known as FPN who are forced to sneak fountain pens home. I LOVE it!!! :thumbup:

When I was fourteen years old, I was amazed at how unintelligent my father was. By the time I turned twenty-one, I was astounded how much he had learned in the last seven years.

One can always remain single and not have to worry about sneaking home anything :)

If she wanted it, then this shouldn't be an issue. ;)

 

Actually, if it was REALLY an issue, she would likely ask for half just for spite, because, as Pakmanpony said, after a divorce who could afford more pens?

If your wife has a load of clothes or shoes compare them to your pens. I'm a female but I don't like shoes though. Infact I need to get a new pair and I think I'm going to just stick with black coverse hightops.

I'd rather spend my money on pens instead of shoes and handbags.

My father and I habitually sneak home all kinds of things.

 

CDs, DVDs, chocolates, fountain pens (me).

 

Here are a few tips:

 

Have the problematic person (in this case, mum), occupied. Laundry, dishes, lunch/dinner.

Make sure she's out of the house (gone to visit friends/relatives).

 

If this doesn't work, then buy a newspaper or two. Wrap the stuff up in that and just walk casually inside.

 

Hide it in your pockets/coat.

if you have several pens, try to substitute it with a pen with a similar shape and color

if she doesnt pay too much attention, she wont notice it

 

on the other hand, try putting it in with your rotation and use it when she is not around

the place and always keep it in a pen case

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
