Do you write with fountain pen?

Do you write with fountain pen?

Is fountain pen just a status symbol?

I think the only point of using one is that it requires less pressure to write with one, so if you write a lot it's not a bad idea to use one.
But if you have to ask, you probably aren't getting exhausted from writing with a normal ballpoint pen.

Got one from my friends for my birthday. Real nice, use it every day.

I noticed that I started enjoying writing more once I got one, just feels fancy. Nice if you write more too.

Fountain is only noticing better if you write in cursive

everyone here writes in cursive

I used to collect fountain pens (along with wristwatches, cigarette lighters, coins, stamps, and pocket knives) before I realized what a pointless waste it was. I gave most of them away. Life isn't about buying a lot of shit.

From experience it is the most comfortable pen. Ink flows easily and fills each letter. Piston mechanisms make them very practical with minimal maintenance or mass at an affordable price.
There is no status associated in my opinion considering they are mass produced impersonal tools that hold about as much gravitas as a mahl stick.

fountain pens often cost thousands of dollars and there are ones that cost tens of thousands of dollars per pen.

I buy two dollar pens from China. You're wasting your money lmao.
