This is bad? I do it all the time. How else would you know? Probably reduces burping potential by evening the pressure.

Horizontally.

But I'd have to nominate Inky Rocks (Youtube) for her absolute anarchist disregard for using fountain pen inks as, well, as writing inks instead of as bottles of goop to throw all over...

Oh my isn't that the truth?!? More than once I've wondered, "Can you even imagine what the fish in her koi pond look like?!?" 

*shudder*

 I'm just imagining her having named each fish after having baptized it in an ink of the same name. 

 

"I baptize thee in the name of Tsuki-yo, and in the name of Chivor, and in the name of Mango..."

 

Actually, now that I think of it, I do have one bad habit. I'll often do some calculation on some inks and mixes, and then if I like it enough, I'll do an entire bottle's worth, even though I know that I'm using up my whole stash of that particular ink and will likely change my mind afterwards. I did this with White Lightning with a few inks.

You mean, like put it in a pen and try it?

I admire people who can be disciplined and have test pens.
