Did it explain why it thinks female you would have had mouth cancer? Damn.

My guess is it isn't the best at dealing with beards.
I assume it based that on the original picture's embedded GPS coordinates.
Also props for White Cheddar. They're the best ones, but man if you eat more than about 3/4c in one sitting you're in for another sitting soon after.

You wanna know what's really funny? That box was in this office when I started working here 14 years ago, and I just never threw it out.
It's still mostly full.
Ping @LittleKagsin and @Squidleybits! 
Pen is vintage Esterbrook J circa 1958-59. Nib is 9128 extra fine flex. Ink is Parker Quink Black. And paper is Rhodia Reverse Book.
(Trust me, that all matters to the fountain pen crowd.

You have the best handwriting I have ever seen!!
Writing like that is slow going because the ink flow can't always keep up and you start to get railroading. Sometimes it happens no matter how slow you go.
I'm so turned on right now.Ping @LittleKagsin and @Squidleybits!

No joke..I love calligraphy and stuff, and I've tried like 3 times to pick it up. No matter how much I practice, I never can seem to get past the "a fifth-grader wrote this" look. So, I'm always in awe of people who can write beautifully.
The deeper I go, the more I discover I'm doing it wrong. Depending on who you ask, that 9128 is completely unsuited for the task I've set for it. The Ahab I have is a little better, but the end result isn't as pretty as with the 9128. The Pilot Falcon is a popular choice, but again, depends on who you ask. That leaves vintage gold nibbed pens. Question is, where do I start looking for the right "wet noodle," and how much of a hit will my budget take to put one in my hands?
*sings* I'm on the right track baby, I am bald this way!

You have a nice head shape, Nick.
That's what hairstylist said, too!
Almost a shame that I'm not actually balding at all.
The beard stays. The beard will always stay. It's a permanent part of my face, now.
I tried removing it once and it bled acid.
Where are the other 20 kids?
In the mines.
Again for @LittleKagsin and @Squidleybits. This is the good stuff. Apache Sunset in a Noodler's Ahab flex pen. I think it shades so well because it's a very thin ink. Almost transparent in the bottle. This is on everyone's "inks you MUST own" list.

I haven't really liked how my cell phone has been taking pictures of my pictures, so I tried scanning one in. I'm much happier with the results and I can crop the result and edit it if needed (removing fingerprints etc)
I'm still working on this butterfly...
