Pfipps Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 I have a pen that says "College Loan Corporation' that has a really funky smell. It bothered me so much that I stopped using it. Is it possible that the ink may have lead in it? or just cheap ink? Anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Andavari Posted October 25, 2007 Moderators Share Posted October 25, 2007 I had pens before that have had an odor which I contributed to the ink. Maybe it's a security feature, nobody will want your stinky pen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators DennisD Posted October 25, 2007 Moderators Share Posted October 25, 2007 I thought "funky" was a good thing....and there's a web site for it. Funky Finds: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDPower Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 I thought "funky" was a good thing You never heard someone referring to something as smelling a bit funky? Just out of curiosity, not knowing myself, I thought I'd see if it was slang or a genuine meaning of the word. And lo and behold it's in the Chambers Dictionary: funky adj (funkier, funkiest) colloq: 1 said of jazz or rock music: strongly rhythmical and emotionally stirring. 2 trendy; good ? What funky socks you've got on! 3 earthy; smelly. So if someone said, as in the definition, your socks are a bit funky, you wouldn't know if it was an insult or compliment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Andavari Posted October 25, 2007 Moderators Share Posted October 25, 2007 So if someone said, as in the definition, your socks are a bit funky, you wouldn't know if it was an insult or compliment That's why facial expressions are so important. If they're smiling, then those are some cool looking socks. If they're covering their nose, burn those socks quickly. But who's really an avid socks watcher?

And that compliment or insult twist could be useful. But who's really an avid socks watcher? A socks maniac ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
