    Wink Sexist BIC Pens



    Read the reviews: http://www.amazon.co.uk/BIC-For-Ambe...pr_product_top

    Some gems:

    I tried these on a whim, and I have to say I wasn't very impressed. The applicator mechanism is far too fiddly, and the plastic tampon inside far too thin (not to mention uncomfortable and non-absorbant) - I'm sure there must be a knack to using them, but I couldn't find it. They also stained my knickers blue for some reason. I really wanted to like these, but it's back to pads for me.
    I bought this pen (in error, evidently) to write my reports of each day's tree felling activities in my job as a lumberjack. It is no good. It slips from between my calloused, gnarly fingers like a gossamer thread gently descending to earth between two giant redwood trunks.
    I bought one of these for my wife (no, really), and she loves it. She loves pinocoladas .. pinacaldos .. pins! she loves PINS! (and getting caught in the rain too - I'm just saying).

    I have one of these myself, although clearly it's the SUPER macho one - black, heavy, pisses oil everywhere. Yeah, guys - you know what I mean! HOWEVER, after RIPPING open the packaging, in a very manly manner, I was EXTREMELY disappointed to find that the (albeit assumed) free Yorkie bar was missing.
    Thank the Lord ! After completely burning off my balls with 'veet hair removal cream for men' I have been struggling to write properly at work with those nasty brutish black biros, they hurt my once manly hands ! Now, not only can I write again but I do it with a girly flourish and enjoy it so much I even fill the margins with rainbows and ponies. Although the other guys here at the builders yard don't seem to appreciate my talents. I wonder if Amazon sell Hello Kitty notebooks...

    For me it's either the pen writes acceptably, or it doesn't. Case closed.
    Its a product review on Amazon, all product can be reviewed and given a rating out of 5. Since some of it is a bit pointless so some people have taken to writing humorous reviews much like the Veet Hair removal cream reviews.

    Yeah, I only noticed that it was from Amazon after I already posted. Wanted to edit the post, but made a second post instead by accident.

    I wonder if the reviewers intended it to be funny or if they were meant to be serious and will one day go back to them and will laugh as well
