Which do you prefer? I choose pencil over pen when I have the option, but I've been made fun of for using it (my dad said something along the lines of "What are you, five?")

Thats actually a difficult question. It usually comes down to what better for what Im doing. I choose pen just because I use that more since its basically mandatory in most of my classes.

I hate when pen is mandatory! I've had to rewrite lots of things over the years because I wrote in pencil and my teacher wouldn't mark it

I agree. Now that I think about it, pencil are much nicer. The way I form my hand with the pen always end up with me smudging the ink, getting ink on my hand, and effectively making my penmanship look even worse.

I prefer using ink pens (especially nice ones). I'm left-handed, so when I write with a pencil, I get graphite all over the side of my hand, doesn't happen with an ink pen.

I prefer pens.
On tests you just cross out your mistake instead of feeling inclined to erase with a pencil saving you precious seconds.
Same with note taking.
...
Same with a lot of things.

And if you're doing something that demands neatness...well, erasing looks ugly too.

I prefer pens just because my weird cursive-print handwriting looks weird(er) in pencil
And, I tend to write very fast (If i do say so myself) so I have a need a thin roller pen, or its like im just sprawling things out.

Did that even make sense?

Anyways,
I used to use a pen in math class and got yelled, lectured, and even punished for it.
(well, this was in junior high)

And pencils look ugly... (Unless it is a mechanical pencil)

I know, I ramble on a lot.
