Editing The Pen Addict 410/transcript (section)

== Paper Size Naming ==


'''Brad Dowdy:''' Sounds good. I'm sure you have contacts there.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Working on it.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' It's like Jeremy with the emoji stuff, right? Jeremy is... He controls all the emoji. As well as being, you know, like the most important person from a publicity standpoint for emoji. He also sits on the emoji consortium, like the Unico consortium, who like agrees the emoji. So I'm assuming that as well as, I'm talking about Jeremy Burge of Emojipedia, if you have no idea what I'm talking about right now. So what I'm assuming is like, as well as being the foremost person talking about pen and paper on the internet, Brad Dowdy, you also sit on the International Paper Standards Body. That's my assumption.

'''Myke Hurley:''' I do. I do. I will give you a quick anecdote to drive this point home. Myke, I had an email this week say, hey, what is this pen? I'm trying to determine what it is. So I get those emails all the time. And it was an old zebra marker. Well, I'm one email away from Zebra Japan's PR person. So it took me like one email to send that off. And now I'm just waiting for a response. So yeah, I am the Jeremy Burge of the pen world.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' See, I knew it.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. There you go.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' All right. Let's thank our second sponsor of this week's episode. And that is Harry's.

'''Myke Hurley:''' During these quarantine times, Myke. Quarantines. Quarantines.

'''Myke Hurley:''' I could see where one might let their personal hygiene slide a little bit. You know, our styles are getting a little bit wild, even though yours looks mighty clean after a little trim there at home. I mean, I did take the clippers to my large dome and burn up the clippers in doing so. But, Myke, there's nothing that makes me feel better than getting a clean shave on my neck, you know, during quarantine. So, protect your neck. Use Harry's.
