There should be a rule that any prize in a raffle should be worth more than the price of a strip of tickets. I say this having won two bottles of beer worth less than the £5 I spent on tickets. Last year I won a bundle of biros.

I have one of those "4 colours in one pen" biros that I coveted and never had at school 😂

Snap! I had several pencils with stripes where I'd burnt off just the paint.
I also melted the ends of biros, but that required less skill.

Good to know this bad workman should have blamed her tools! It would have been the cheapest of the cheap pens so no wonder. Bought both sons quite a nice one for secondary school and one used his all the way up to GCSE then switched to biros to avoid the running out of ink mid exam question problem.

Hé, les communiquants en marketing territorial, pour votre rando entre Val d’Aran, Biros et Castillonnais, peut-être choisissez un autre nom? Je sais pas, il y a encore une mémoire de la guerre d'Espagne à Toulouse, bande de debilosses incultes

I used 266,370 vertical black lines and 127,801 horizontal red lines, drawn using Bic Biros, for this pose from @niceyhott.bsky.social . The original is A2. Detail shot to follow.

The struggle is real. They may just have gone to hide out with the lost biros and odd socks in the Ethereal Plane

Come, come. 30,000 biros were commissioned for R.A.F. navigators to write their logs in-flight during WW2. I love my fountain pens, but the humble biro did its part in fighting the Nazis and helping win the War.

Always ended up broken from trying to get normal biros through the holes 😆

Trying to declutter - have about 45 highlighter pens, 60 biros, 80 bulldog clips etc

Help me.

It was the sort of on-call where I've come home with five biros in my hair.

There was quite a bit of that too!
The last few years he wrote on his laptop in the flat in the morning & joined me at lunchtime. This year he decided he'd rather be at the beach all day, bought up a shop's stock of school exercise books & multiple biros, wrote in the day & typed up early evening.

Their highnesses Sabine and Anna Lois are seeking "the tools of the (reading and writing) trade" for the #PagesandPalaces theme of #PalacesandGardens today. And what would Leonardo da Vinci have done without his biros and pencils? From the gift shop of the Chateau du Clos Lucé, LdV's French home.

Regret to inform you that they didn't have biros in the 11th century, Jacob, so it is definitely not remotely accurate

:b Our project lead has an interestingly similar affair with pens. Fortunately, he buys inexpensive Bírós and keeps the cap. This forces the borrower to return the pen.
