The Random Thoughts Thread

[Calebark]

The Copic website is the most dangerous website for me on the entirety of the internetz.

Ah, I see you haven't heard of ATAR Notes yet

How many of the 358 colours do you own?

I own this set here, and it's practically my most-prized possession. I literally brought them to my desk today just for inspiration haha.

EDIT: My arrangement is more aesthetically pleasing.

I see nothing?

Edit: slightly related to this, I have a slightly unhealthy obsession with stationery despite the fact I am completely hopeless at creative and artsy things and tragically left-handed and barely even handwrite stuff anymore haha. I follow too many study instas and I feel so jealous about their pretty lettering.

Ahhh so pretty!

What do you use them for, exactly?

[Joseph41]

Completely unrelated to anything, but I've always wondered if your display pic is meant to be a schwa? And if so is there any specific meaning behind it?

Whoops, sorry - completely missed this!

Yeah, it's a schwa. I studied Linguistics, and find the schwa fascinating! No other meaning, really.

Ahhh so pretty!

What do you use them for, exactly?

Design! And random drawings! And cards! And a whole bunch of other shit, but I don't use them as much as I'd like these days.

Used them a heap in VCD.

> check letterbox, no card left to say delivery was attempted

I also did specify it could be left at the front door. So, a bit extra annoyed at that.

OMG K888, SAME. I'm a sucker for the studygram/blr community.

Had similar experiences to this. Very frustrating.

I just want my new shampoo and conditioner lol.

Also, how am I meant to know which post office to pick it up from if they didn't leave a card? 😂

Yeah, I actually asked a worker at Australia Post about this and that it is out of their control. That the responsibility lies on the contractor's company to follow procedure. Also fun fact about parcel collection: From their consumer surveys and "studies" people prefer picking up parcel from a post office then from the front door.

But yes, I hate when they don't give a card or tell you which post-office. I can only assume your local one or the "major" one near your address.

This is the problem - there are two, both about the same distance away from me hahaha

I'm watching Copic unboxing videos, and I'm just so far gone.

EDIT: Seriously, my juices are flowing so viciously.
