This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

What do you look for when searching for a quality sharpener?

It must have a sharpener sharp enough to sharpen.

you can just dismount the little blade and sharpen it

While normies studied lessons, I was studying the blade.

Not the original commenter, but high carbon steel blades, and preferably a magnesium body.

Something like https://www.jetpens.com/KUM-No.-410-Magnesium-Pencil-Sharpener-2-Hole/pd/16525#index=0

Or, hear me out, mechanical pencils. If it gets dull, rotate and click.
