Pen testing videos?

Hello friends! It is I, the elusive Jen. I am here from the dark interwebs to tell you about this new thing I’m going to be doing. Well, I’m guessing you already know what that is based on the title of this post.

Yes, I want to start making YouTube videos testing pens.

Crazy, say you? Ingenius, says I!

I have a vast amount of pens at my disposal, and I intend to test and torture them to the fullest extent. I also have a problem where I keep buying more pens. It’s an addiction. I need them like I need air. I have everything from felt-tipped, needle point, fountain pens, all the way to a glass dip pen. Heck, I just ordered myself some nice .3mm pends that originally came from Japan. Why? CAUSE I NEED THEM, DAMMIT. I’m getting 15 of them, so I can sacrifice one for the testing.

What kind of tests, do you ask? Well, there’s the standard smear test, the fun, skipping test, and the “how does it feel to use it” test. Then the fun begins. We’re gonna torture the pens in the most insane ways we could think of. That should be an interesting one because I WILL BE CRINGING THE ENTIRE TIME. MY POOR PENSSSSSS.

However, it must be done in the name of science.

That, and it’s the only excuse I can use to buy more pens.

If you guys are interested in seeing what we come up with or have some cool ideas for tests that we could do, leave a comment below! We always love to hear from you and I want to see what your crazy minds come up with.

Ta-ta!

Man, I love documentaries!

Hello everyone! So, as I’ve mentioned in a previous blog post, I really love Philippa Gregory’s books. I also love all things War of the Roses/Tudor/Elizabethan era. However, there are only so many times you can watch “The White Queen/Princess” and “The Tudors.” So I was excited to see a woman named Hayley Nolan doing a web series where she discusses Anne Boleyn and the history of famous places. This led to YouTube.

Now, you can find some documentaries on Netflix or Amazon Video, but boy, are there documentaries on YouTube! I mean hundreds of documentaries. Everything from “The Six Wives of Henry VIII” to “Icons of Power,” to just name a few. They’re all very interesting and I cannot get enough of them!

If you like watching historical documentaries, especially of the Tudors, I recommend the channel allthemed docs and allthemed docs2. Together these channels have over 900 different documentaries you can watch FOR FREE. Yes, free. The magic word.

If I can recommend one documentary in particular, I would recommend the documentary where they found the body of Richard III under a carpark. I’ve watched it many times, and it’s truly amazing. The archaeology student in me cringed at one point because of their stupidity, but the rest o the documentary is very compelling. You can watch it here!

My current watch is “The Six Wives of Henry VIII.” This is my second time watching the series, and it’s amazing. I already know a lot of it from reading books and watching other documentaries and shows, but it’s still very interesting. There are 4 parts that cover all 6 of Henry’s wives. If you’re interested in this period of Tudor history, I highly recommend you start watching with this particular documentary. You can watch part one of it here.

Hopefully, this helps some of you who were interested in watching documentaries from these eras. Trust me, you won’t regret it.
