4 Colour Pen - Review

Well, i think its long over due that the 4-colour pen should get a review. So here i go.

The Four Pen was invented along time ago. I assume people got lazy picking up 2 different colours of pen a day. Yes i know there is 4 colours, but i will give my reasoning as we go on with this blog. Firstly lets rate this pen colour by colour.

Black
Black is clearly the commander of this nicely tight little ship. Demands respect from the other colours. It leads the way, however it could be a bit dark at times. Alone at the top can have its bad side. Black is mostly the pencil pusher as well, needed for all those important documents. Clearly dominats Blue, which occasionally comes out when some is making notes. Black is messier then the other colours as well. Seems more cluttered. Overall i feel the black is somewhat over rated. I would give it 3 stars only cause of the legal nature we need Black for.

Blue
Blue is the jealous type of the colours. Envies Black, wishes it could be Red, and is just plain confused as to why Green even got a place in the pen. Blue is a nice colour i feel, easy on the eyes, can be neat and plus its what i use for this blog. Its the colour of the skye, its the colour of water and Blue cars. Blue is the underachiever...could have been so much more...if only there wasnt such blackness in this world. I rate it a 4.

Red
Red is the colour of blood. Red back spiders. Menstration cycle of women. Red is, what i feel, the evil brother of the lot. Its used to correct mistakes. What a busy body it is. How dare it gets off on correcting mistakes? Who does it think it is? The nerve of this colour! The thought it thinks its better then the others, all ways trying to make a power grab at Black, undermining the whole harmory of the 4 pen. I give this a 1.

Green
The free loader. There is no use for the Green colour. How many people even own a single green pen on their own? Its clearly a passenger. Its like that unwanted sibling that comes to stay with you for a week, stays a year, uses all your toilet paper, drinks your beer then when you have diahorrea there is no toilet paper left and youre sitting there for hours waiting for them to come home. Unbelieable. I still rate it higher then red though with a 2.

Overall the pen is not a labour saving device. How hard is it to grab 2 pens at once? Together, combined, there really is no point to it. Green is a passenger, Red is just a rebel trying to form a coup, Black is a dictator from Iraq and Blue is the nerdy one trying to fit in.
