Has anyone ever kept a biro long enough to run out of ink? I’m pretty sure the ink’s unlimited and we just lose them.
Also, dental floss.

They all look like they’ve got plenty of ink inside but they all seem to have dried up when I try to use them!
I’ve never had them run out exactly but I’ve had them go weird. Like when the ink sort of separates out into zebra stripes.
My wife keeps a handy pot of biros that don’t work. Which is so useful to have when you really need a pen and not frustrating. She says it’s to keep them separate from the ones that work and we’ve had the ‘put them in the bin’ discussion and somehow she won so…
Solution: put the pot in the bin.
Many years ago I worked in a call centre selling insurance. I was there for about a year, and the only time I felt the slightest sense of achievement was that one time I fully killed off a Bic biro. There was a lot of mindless doodling involved.
I have a really shitty SCP idea based on this concept
They last forever at home but at work they seem to run out at a fast rate and I have to search high and low for a new one because no one ordered any as usual.
Years ago (the early 70’s), my auntie worked in an office whereby she could only get a new Biro from the cupboard if you brought back the empty one!
There’s a scene in Mindhunter showing BTK enforced a similar policy at work, so maybe your auntie had a lucky escape.
