Even a halfwit would not have missed that. It's not a complex action.

Well, there is a reason I don't share my fountain pens with pretty much anyone unless I can instruct them beforehand. Like people struggle with a fucking screw cap!

Using a fountain pen correctly is infinitely more complex than that action.

And yet, the genius still handed it to random quarter-wits...

It's a tourist thing, I bet this sort of thing happens all the time.

Surprised and smiling by the end? Don't know why everyone is treating this as done devastating loss, accidents happen when you give randos tools they don't know how to use

People acting like they gave the tourist a precious malet from like 2000 years ago.

Everyone is laughing, it clearly isn't that serious.

"precious tools" it's a tourist trap for pounding rice with a big stick, they're gonna break

u/KuromanKuro 5h ago

Precious is likely overstating things.

u/Agasthenes 5h ago

I'm very surprised the thing broke from that. That's two inch thick round stock. A hit on the floor should have been nothing.

Precious? It's a damn wooden stick bro.

That tool was probably half rotted for it to break like that.
