M: I came here for a good argument.
A: No you didn't; no, you came here for an argument.
M: An argument isn't just contradiction.
A: It can be.
M: No it can't. An argument is a connected series of statements intended to establish a proposition.
A: No it isn't.
M: Yes it is! It's not just contradiction.
A: Look, if I argue with you, I must take up a contrary position.
M: Yes, but that's not just saying 'No it isn't.'
A: Yes it is!
M: No it isn't!

Love the quote... the colour and the handwriting. The rotring has taken your handwriting to a different level!

Thanks Yazeh, to my surprise I noticed that the Artpen is discontinued since quite a while.
Rotring does not produce any fountain pen anymore.
Imho since Sanford /Rubbermaid took over the company their best days are over.
No really new products since years anymore and now their last FP is also gone.
The Artpen was/is a nice sturdy and cheap fountain pen which came with a lot of different nib options.
The Rotring 600 mechanical pencils are my favorite mechanical pencils, still available but also already a very old but very good design (relict from better days when they still were a German company with a long tradition).
If you don’t know the 600 yet, then I can recommend it, iconic full metal design, on the heavier side, awesome build quality and imho very good for writing and drawing.
Thanks.. I have a fond memories of rOtring. When I was at university, I got myself a rOtring rive, ergo-dynamic, light. Wrote many good and bad reports with it. And I still have it...

I also have some memories on Rotring when I was young.
E.g. when I was in secondary engineering college back in the times when technical drawings were still taught on transparent paper using indian ink technical pens I used a set of Rotring Rapidographs and also a Rotring plotting board.
Younger people might think that such drawings were made always on the computer with CAD software but this was not the case. 🤪
Actually Rotring had a really good reputation in the German speaking countries with respect to their tools and technical pens, they defined the standard and were top notch but always quite pricey.
