Dear Jim,

Please paint the brave little toaster in bed with two slim sexy soldiers (the bread type), smoking a cigar with used pop tart wrappers strewn across the floor and an empty tub of 'I cant believe its not butter' on the side. To the side of the room, an egg has walked in to find the scene and has spurted his yolk everywhere in anger, as the soldiers are HIS bitches. Also note he has matching Marmite curtains and bedsheets with slogan, keeping toast filthy since 1914.

Thanks,

@DrRacheal Oh! Thanks for the heads up. The preview looked ace.

Looked out the window and saw something red by the fence. Some tomatoes had self sewn a few growing seasons ago! Let the harvest begin!

@DrRacheal Huzzah! We started Edison last year-ish and are up to S19 (other than every Treehouse episode which is an Octoberween tradition). I have not seen many from S22 onward so soon they will be all new to me and I am a bit excited.

Dear Jim,
Please paint me John Virgo re-enacting the famous Sgt Elias death scene from Platoon with Jim Davidson looking on disapprovingly; the Make or Break round is ruined!
Thanks,
Andy

@jeffweiss Yeah, having a crack at it. Just cheap Platinum Preppys for now, but I love their colour. I did look at Van Dieman inks. Might grab some samples.

Dear Jim,
Please paint me a guinea pig version of Burt Reynolds on a sun lounger being served drinks by Hulk Hogan wearing only the top half of a tuxedo.
Thanks,

@sopa@mastodon.world Maybe? Marketed as Wordsworth & Black.

moment today when I got a thank you note from a student, "for the tailored memes and the laughs that crack through a tedious and sometimes overwhelming amount of content". Nawww.

@sopa@mastodon.world A friend gave me a cheap, metal Amazon pen and I love the weight of it compared to Safari and Preppy. My upgrade pens will be a little heavier I hope. Going to run the Preppys for a while though. Might try and ink dropper one and turn one into a highlighter. I fell down a hacks hole!

@m1k3 I read all your suggestions and have watched "all the matching youtubes". Haha. Will have a crack. I am excited to use the converter 😄

Dear Jim,
Please paint me a Tyrannosaurus Rex playing Connect 4 with Heston Blumenthal on a lake of fire whilst a care bear watches them lustfully.

@sfierbaugh Good to hear! Deciding on which ones to buy was hard. I feel like I should have bought Noodlers though....

@sopa@mastodon.world I am new to fountain pens so only have Pilot Preppys and a Lamy Safari, nothing fancy, but I am a fan of the fine and extra fine nibs!

@m1k3 First ink purchases! 80ml will last me a while I imagine, but will note your suggestion. I was a bit overwheled and have mild, "Should I have bought Noodler's?" remorse.. How do I remove the cartridge without inking everything? I am a proper fountain pen noob.

@martianconduit I could only go from the online swatches. So I am hoping more red than orange. Will let you know when I use it!
