The ultimate pen-flip site

The pen-flip is one of the most integral characteristics of the Debate activity and "culture." (Which is why i posted it here instead of somewhere else)
what pen-flips can you do?


edit: elitism it is

IM me for the site if you want to learn

this is sweet haha, but this is one case where I think information shouldn't be shared with everyone. I like the elitism that's connotated by my ability to flip pens, and your inability to do so haha.

Penflipping is fun, i never get bored when i'm doing it. I can flip it, kick it back, and flip it again. I can't do more than that consistently, but my record is 7 times back and forth. I know a guy that can do it for a lot longer than i can, and consistently.

I don't care about the spreading of the knowledge, somehow a whole lot of people in our school can do it anyway. I think it's silly to go to lengths to hide it, but those who wish to simply not teach i have nothing against that, but i'll teach anyone who wants to know, unless i don't like them.

it's not like when you do it, you're concentrating on it and missing what the teacher is saying. It's easy once you get it...i don't see how it's a bad habit, cause it's not really even a habit, just fun. Though it can be.

yea i know, it becomes second nature once you get used to it...sometimes you just do it without knowing.

Plus its always nice to impress the "lesser" people with your dexterity and pen skills.

*shrugs* iono, they're juss distracting really :huh:

Posted by tm11 on 09-27-2002 03:44 AM:

by that definition, any habit could be bad. It seems more rational that a habit would be bad if it affected other people, was bad for health, or bad for hygiene, etc.
