It's That Time of Year Again

The time when I stock up on Hello Kitty writing implements to flourish in meetings and generally make people uncomfortable and/or confused by my whimsical and childish tastes.

Behold: my new Badtz Maru pen.
I also got a really nifty three-way one featuring Kuromi, who likes the color black and skulls, writing in her diary, reading short stories, and playing a mean guitar. Perfecto.

Japanese Tidbit of the day: In Japanese, batsu-maru, from which the character's name is derived means "X and O" It is also what Japanese use for true-false quizzes. I'm not sure if this is linked but "kuro" means black in Japanese, which may be how Kuromi got her name (and outfit).
