School traumatized me as a child with all my teachers always complaining about my terrible handwriting. Like what use is handwriting anyway when once you get to college and beyond everything needs to be typed?

 

 

Yep and before that some people would complain if you typed it.

Preferably one that writes? I hate mechanical pencils though. What a random ass question.

Once I do get it though, the Asus UX305.

Skillcraft 0.7mm Twist Top mechanical pencils, Pilot G-2 05s (07s tend to smear when it's hot), and Skillcraft Whiteout are the tools of my trade for sketching / marking up drawings while in the field where drawing conditions are less than ideal (dirty, hot, humid). Writing utensils with caps are not ideal when there is a significant risk of dropping things into inaccessible areas.
