Don't you hate it when you pick up a pen to use it and it doesn't work? What's happeneing with the pens? This really, really irks me. I try scribbling in a separate piece of paper and I make holes trying for the ink to come out. Long ago.......... The pens use to work...... :mad: :angryfire

That happened to me in the middle of my social studies final 2 weeks ago! I was writing an essay on the fall of the Roman Empire and all of a sudden my pen..."died"! I took it apart, and all the ink was STILL there! I was like...OK! WEIRD! lol. But I found a new one

Try taking the tip of your pen and touch your tongue with it. Always works for me.

Have you ever tried rubbing on the bottom of a shoe, like a tennis shoe. That works too.

But I know what you mean about the pens. I've had several die on me lately.

Try folding them in half, it squeezes the ink out, lol.

(May sound rediculous, but it actually works....most of the time.)

The reason pens are so bad now is because they are evil. :mad:

Yep. I think its because of how fancy they make pens now. I have pens that have glitter on the inside and feathers on the end. Yeah, they look pretty but can't write worth a damn. The companies must spend so much to make them look fancy and put a 2 cent ink cartridge in it. Usually I take a cigarette lighter and put the point in the flame for a second or so. Doesn't always work, well actually it only worked like once or twice. lol
