Knowing you, I first thought you wanted something sharpened that sounds similar and has wood component too.

"Just because something makes you smile or laugh ... doesn't mean it's a joke."

Yes, yes, it does.  The whole concept is a laugh and an exercise in absurdity and wasted motion.

not to mention that someone who buys a sixty dollar pencil. hand sharlpened.

wasted motion is subjective.

Sort of reminds me of that myth about Soupy Sales telling all the kids to send in the pictures of presidents mommy and daddy keep on slips of paper in their wallets.

I don't know if it's used in all businesses but in the print industry in the UK if you tell a person to "sharpen your pencil" it means for them to quote a really competitive/cheap price for a job.

Kinda defeating the object with these pencils though!

Same meaning in the US.

I understand the meaning of having lead in your pencil...

I understand the meaning of having lead in your pencil...

As in "You can take a horse to water, but a pencil must be lead?"

Can't draw without it

Never could get the hang of horses, but real good with dogs...
