well i was thinking the black is the like the main colour biro isnt it. always used for forms and things because hes friendly to the photocopier. the pen of choice for most i feel.

then there is mr blue. mr blue is almost as popular as mr black but hes not quite got the relationship with the photocopier, and so he loses out to his darker rival. but hes still used a lot in many circles such as the essay writing people of today.

now we come to the authorative mr red. mr red strikes fear into many people. mr red is used by teachers in schools across the land and the most common words written in red are 'please see me' mr red is like the police of the pen world.

poor old mr green. not socially accepted, the green pen is used meerley by little infants drawing doodles, and by people who cant find their black or blue pens. mr green is a bit of a reject.

Now you get all these fancy colours like gold and silver coming in trying to steal the limelight. back off

what your favourite colour biro?

I always thought Blue was more popular than black - I hardly ever use black.

Unfortunatly I dont see many green biros, but I wish I did, as I would often use it. Blue is my vote though.

Ah teachers use green biros now. Apparently the red ones send off 'negative vibes'.

I don't use biros really. I like my Parker fountain pen (ooh get me :P). I do have a lovely pink biro which is good for underlining though 8).
