- Balgair 6y agoSo strange. Not actual turkey quills and ink wells, not kid vellum or parchment, rather just regular old pens with feathers on the top and paper. Like, they very easily could have gone all the way, FB more than has the cash to spend on the authentics. Look at any signing ceremony in DC, each document gets it's own pen to save and parcel out. But FB only went half way, and made it all even more of a parody because of that. Like, my dudes, it isn't 2012 anymore, the internet isn't a fun place where things don't really 'count', the fratty dorm-room pastiche don't fly.
