I have just found out about erasable ballpens. Now trying to decide how best to use them for evil.

I hope they've been improved significantly over the last several years, b/c when I used them in school, the 'erasability' wasn't all that awesome. :(


*wishes you luck in your evil endeavors!* XD

They were epic when writing final drafts of papers (before the advent of 'everything must be typed, omg!') when you didn't want to have to start over on the whole page after you'd written all the way to the last line and made a mistake! b/c it never fails that it's on that last line when you make the error and you're all 'd'oh!'

I was using them all through the '90's. So, I'm hoping they've made improvements b/c they weren't all that fabulous w/ the 'erasability' then.

It sounds like you're enjoying them though!

My usual thought is to never use them on checks or legal documents.

The ones I've seen have often been labeled. But most of them have cartridges that can be swapped into other pens.

My teachers never let me use them because they said they could be used to cheat tests. Like I would ever do something like that... XD

What are your evil purposes?

I used to love erasable ballpens, probably because I couldn't use them, but they had a huge problem: the ink takes a bit more time to dry than usual pens, so if you accidentally put you hand on the still wet text, you'll wipe it all away ;A;
