    In line with your submission, I kept a Bic pen from brand new to absolutely gone. It took years, but I'm not exactly jotting down notes all day.

    Now I carry a nub of a carpenter's pencil with me and I'm much happier.

              In a public school that had is own number, a harmless prank people used to pull was to dial the payphone's own number then immediately hang up and dash off. It would then ring and confuse the person who was nearest.

                In the last few years I've finished a dozen or so. In college I used about 1 pen per semester from start to finish in the same way. I tend to use nail clippers until they are dull, too.

                I leave a chapstick (Burt's bees) at my desk at home and another in the pants I go out with (which moves to new pants with my wallet as necessary). Hard to lose things when I have a system, I guess.

                  I personally have finished three chapsticks from top to bottom. (using them correctly, not eating them.)

                  One time as a 19-year-old, I planned out an entire Traveler campaign in the span of two weeks. 46 planets, each with distinct cultures, local flora and fauna, and a unique questline for each one. There was an overarching plotline about a Doctor Sinestar abducting people and stealing tech. I basically spent two weeks in my room furiously typing from when I woke up until I fell asleep at my keyboard, ignoring my bodily functions until my body forced me to take care of it. It was a race against burnout, and I won, but at what cost?

                      This happened to me one time like 15 years ago. I was sitting on a bench and a pay phone next to me started ringing. I picked it up and the local police department was on the other end.

                      They said they'd gotten a 911 call from this number. I said this was a pay phone and they were like, "Oh. Are there like, any kids or teenagers around?"

                      I looked around. There was a big group of teenagers maybe 30ft from where I was sitting. "Yep, there's a few nearby."

                      They said, "It was probably them. But we're gonna send someone by just to make sure everything's okay."

                      A few minutes later a cop came by and asked if I was the person they spoke to on the phone. "Yep." He looked around and verified there was no emergency and then left.

                        I ended up with the absolute worst shopping buggy in the store, constantly clacking and hanging up. I found it was somehow much easier to push backwards..

                        People looked at me funny, but hey, if it seems stupid but works, it's not stupid.

                        I always get stuck with the cursed cart but I roll with it. In a crowded store on the weekend nothing is more fun than power walking and doing extreme maneuvers with a loud as fuck cart.

                              Had that happen in an elevator. Elevator call boxes have a phone line for emergencies.

                              RING!
                              (pushes button)
                              "Hello?"
                              "Hello, who is this?"
                              "This is an elevator."
                              "No, seriously, who is this?"
                              "No, seriously, this is an elevator."
                              (Everyone in the elevator starts laughing)
                              "OMG... this really is an elevator!"
                              "Well, yeah, that's what I told you."
                              "How are you talking to me?"
                              "The call box started ringing so I pushed the button."
                              "Um, OK, can you hang up now?"
                              "Well, there's no real phone, just a button and a speaker, so I think you have to hang up."
                              (CLICK)

                                        I finished Heavy Barrel on one credit, in the exact same time it took Ride the Lightning to play through on a walkman.

                                          How many you finish by eating them?
