pen state

There are certain sects of consumer society that are pervasive and adamant about their respective product -- Mac addicts, Vespa riders, Nutella fiends, Swiffer maniacs. Add Sharpie to that list, as I am completely obsessed with the permanent marker phenom. The new Sharpie Retractable is a Sharpie lover's dream come true. No cap to lose, a clip to hold the marker in the spine of your spiral notebook or back jeans pocket, and a variety of vibrant colors that make this Benetton reference possible.

[Sharpie Retactable Fine Point Markers, about $13 for an 8-pack (staples.com)].

You can't have just one sharpie...and what about the mini sharpie? Doubles as a key chain.
Double your pleasure.

I LOVE my Sharpies!!! Total fetish item for artists, designers, and graffiti taggers. I love anything that allows you to deface property.
