    Sort of a sequel to the wooden vs mechanical pencils thread... which writing utensil is superior: the pen or the pencil?

    If I'm not doing math, then I prefer having pens. Portability is a big feature for me and carrying pencils in my pocket isn't always practical. Additionally, I just like the way pens feel overall. I know the typical pen has no eraser, but that's not a big deal to me for most things I need a writing utensil for.

    Pens are a pain to erase; plus correction tape/fluid is just ugly; so pencil FTW~!

    Pencils are flimsier, get lost far more easily, and the light reflecting off graphite can make it irritating to read. I'm on the pen side for life.

    What's next, @RadEmpoleon? Erasers vs correction pens? (Ik those don't work together but I had to say this)

    I like pens more for writing purpose.

    I prefer pencils. They work better for art, as it's harder to shade with pens, and I usually can't erase them. I'm also a bit messy when I write or draw, and pencils don't smear nearly as much as pens do.
