pen slut

Someone who has an obsession with fancy writing implements and typically uses a different strange pen every day, or even every hour.
You can spot a pen slut easily if his/her desk contains at least a dozen Pilot Precisions, PhD retractables, Signo Gelsticks, or swank souvenir pens. If you ask the pen slut to borrow one, he/she will probably fish around for a Bic ballpoint rather than let you waste the precious ink of, say, his/her teal Y&C Gel Xtreme 0.7

I am a pen slut; on my desk at work, I have five pencil cups containing 84 pens. My favorites are the Marvy Gel Excels and the San Fran one with the moving cable car in the barrel. No, you CANNOT borrow it.

You can often tell a pen slut by looking at his/her desk: if there are more than 20 Pilot Hi-Precisions, PhD retractables, Marvy Sparklers, and/or fancy souvenir pens, that's a sign. Also, if you ask a pen slut to borrow a pen, he/she will likely rummage around for a Bic ballpoint rather than allow you to use a masterpiece such as his/her Y&C Gell Extreme 0.7 with teal ink.
