    Default Big pen comparison

    A long time ago, I was perusing pens in a local shop. I ended up with a lot of big pens out on the counter. You don't often see these pens next to each other, so I thought I'd take a picture. Now I thought it might be nice to share the picture.

    Yes. Larger body than the 149 but smaller nib and slightly slimmer section.

    Isn't the section much thinner than the 149's?

    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!
