the felt pen crisis of 2023: the real villain of the year
so hear me out folks, the felt pen shortage hit harder than ai in schools yeah? i mean everyone loves to meme about the robots taking over but what about the felt tips. those things are sacred.
remember the horror of losing your fave felt tip, your mvp marker, and having to settle for a red one? devestating. it's like losing a pet. and then you find the red one and it's not the same. it's stickier or something. just ruins your whole day.
social media's been wild with memes about the felt pen crisis, it's got layers man. underappreciated. like there's people out here battling felt pen shortages while we ignore the real threats like climate change or whatever... not me like.
but for real though, this felt tip shortage made me think. maybe the world’s been off balance since 2021 and we're just now feeling it. like i read somewhere that pen availability is linked to global stability (citation pending). so maybe the felt pen crisis is actually a metaphor for media fractures or supply chain chaos or something more philosophical.
or maybe i'm just a guy losing his mind over felt tips. which to be honest, fair. but here's the thing - in 2024, we need heroes. not villains. and definitely more felt pens. keep it flowing.
