Can we talk about the Dixon Ticonderoga for a minute?

It is, by far, the best pencil on the market. And let me tell you why: because the little nub of rubber on top of it actually erases things. I'm sure that other pencils had this feature too, long ago, but at some point in history, pencilmakers everywhere decided that instead of a useful eraser, what consumers really wanted on top of their pencil was a shitty little piece of plastic that left a pinkish, streaky mess all over the paper.

But not Dixon. The Ticonderoga still can actually erase. And for that, I salute you, Dixon.

EDIT: Thanks for the gold. But for less than the price of reddit gold, you could have bought a fresh, new pack of Ticonderogas and almost had enough money left over for another fresh, new pack of Ticonderogas.

EDIT 2: Lots of people trashing the Ticonderoga and trying to push the Palamaladingdong Black Wing 602. These cost $1.90 per pencil. And that is ridiculous. The good people at Dixon aren't going to rip you off like that. And you know what? They make a black Ticonderoga that is equally sexy, IF NOT SEXIER, than the Black Wing 602. AND a black Ticonderoga will only run you about 21 cents per pencil, which is a much better deal.


EDIT 3: Some people are trying to push mechanical pencils. Sure, people can use those. Mechanical pencils are all well and good. But here is why the Dixon Ticonderoga is better than any mechanical pencil.

#1. The Ticonderoga has its graphite embedded inside of it. This guarantees that the graphite will never slip up inside of the pencil body if you press down too hard, which tends to happen frequently with low-end mechanical pencils. It may happen less frequently with high-grade ones, but it will never happen with a Ticonderoga.

#2. You must sharpen the Ticonderoga. Some people may think that this is a weakness, but I assure you that it is a strength. After writing a few pages, you'll see that your once-sharp tip is now a dull nub. It's a fine indication of all of the work you've done thus far. That dull nub tells you that you've accomplished something. And once you've sharpened it and started writing again? Boy oh boy, there is no finer feeling that using a freshly-sharpened pencil.

#3. Sharpening the Ticonderoga releases a delectable wood scent into the air. The wood used in Dixon brand Ticonderogas is of a high quality, and is pleasant to smell. This cannot be achieved while using a mechanical pencil without also purchasing some sort of artificial wood scent spray.

#4. The Ticonderoga is made of wood. This means that the pencil is always pleasant to the touch. It has a solid, natural feel to it, which you can't get with low-grade mechanical pencils, which are made of plastic. High-end mech pencils tend to be metal. When I wake up first thing in the morning, and grab one of my several Ticonderogas to start the day's crossword puzzle, do you know what I don't feel? The biting cold of a metallic pencil body against my fingers. What a way to ruin a perfectly good morning.

EDIT 4: If anyone from the good people at Dixon are reading this: I would love some free pencils.

EDIT 5: The good folks at Dixon just contacted me and are going to send me a box of sweet, sweet Ticonderogas. Either that, or I just gave my home address to a random redditor. In either case, I'll let you guys know when they get here.

EDIT 6: They came! Thanks, Dixon!



Just for the record, I don't work for Dixon, nor did anyone from their company ask me to make any of these posts. I'm just a simple man who loves good-quality, affordable pencils.

Is this a book reference? There are several scenes just like that in Aztec, is that where you got it?

and by just like it I mean not that like it at all. There's a cruel Queen, and a slave girl, and the guy painting in the corner was a hermaphrodite, I think. I haven't read it in a long time and the details are fuzzy.

EDIT: Right, he's not a hermaphrodite in this book, that was another one by the same author.

I forgot a lot of details, I guess.

>b) Mixtli is a serveant to a Noble woman who assigns him the task of drawing pictures of random people around town. She then picks one of the pictures and requires Mixtli to find the person and order them to the palace where she has sex with them and then has them cooked and served as food. A lesbian encounter here as well.

Ha you believe in God? You should check this out if you don't want to be so narrow minded and immature for the rest of your life.

its been a long and hard life, but i just smile and keep my head up! Oh and here's a fairly standard guide : link

this is the sort of thing reddit is good at.

TOGETHER WE MAKE A DIFFERENCE

I've found one pretty cheap, if you're interested

[My Friend Has Down Syndrome (Let's Talk about It (Barron))]
(http://www.amazon.com/Friend-Down-Syndrome-about-Barron/dp/0764140760/ref=sr_1_3?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1332926657&sr=1-3&tag=bookforyoums-20)

It's different though because hipsters actually have friends and dress chic whilst I spend my days combing my neckbeard in my parents' basement dressed like a fifth grader.

...by the way I only comb my neckbeard with the Styling Comb Edge Stick by Iso Beauty and if you use anything else you might as well just kill yourself.

Anybody as scared about Ebola as I am? Reading this book didn't exactly make it better lol http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ML160SM .

Obviously you are unfamiliar with the seminal work on the subject.

Do everyone a favor and do a little research next time.

Don't worry about the downvotes. It's a touchy subject for several demos, but I'm with you.

I rock scramble with my infant, and will start whitewater kayaking with him on class iii this August with a custom double tunnel skirt, but that is my job and he has been swimming underwater since 1.5 months.

As a more approachable example, I wouldn't normally let a toddler on a window washing rig, or on a construction site, but I'd trust my brother or a buddy, who are professionals, to give them a ride or a tour that might be sketchy or uncomfortable to even some adults.

These aren't "grin and pray" scenarios, nor is Op's video. It is a well managed risk assessment with a long, stepwise approach focused on fun and exploration. I'm not personally comfortable with Op's video, but I also don't understand that risk scenario. I don't know his gear, the ramp setup and start, or the worst case scenario. I will however give the pros the benefit of the doubt, and I assume that individuals with access to that ramp are pros. Edit: it is Woodward Summer Camp, and they absolutely know exactly what they are doing.

The divide is usually a misunderstanding of the general public as to the participants' actual risk. I haven't made a significant mistake on advanced-intermediate level rivers/walls/trails in many, many years. For me, a few specific activities that often send some to the hospital are far safer than an urban sidewalk. If I'm rolling with my son on beginner/intermediate stuff, it's just another "walk through the woods".
