I already own that exact some Kuru Toga, so this one’s a no-brainer.

Anyone who deliberately picks the Sharpwriter or the Bic needs keeping an eye on; we need to keep those kinds of people on a list.

I think people use the sharpwriter because US standardized testing requires a #2 pencil and the sharpwriters are cheap.

  Key word being deliberately. I predict the majorty of people who wind up with either of those ghastly things did so because they were all that was available, easily filched from the supply closet, or it’s all their parents would give them because they are above all else cheap.
  
  I have probably handled and used hundreds of the damn things in my life but I have never once spent a single penny on any of them; they were without exception foisted off on me by circumstance, not intentionally sought out.
  
  I was a Staedtler nerd in school anyway, any time I was not allowed to use a fountain pen.
