If you were one of the lucky few who attended the early workshop version of my stage show Cute with Chris: LIVE, you probably received one of these limited edition CWC pens as a gift. Dee from NOVA SCOTIA writes: "...Hey Chris, I have a problem...I work at Staples Business Depot in Canada (no that's not the problem lol) and being the loyal cult member I am, I decided to take my CWC pen to work with me, to spread the good word and hopefully give you just a few more followers on the East coast. Well.... I misplaced the pen, I know I know I'm sorry, and I only just recently found it.... with a new addition to it.... censorship. One of my lovely co-workers decided to use the pen for customers, but only after scratching off the BITCH from it first! I've attached a photo of my new "Pens,_____" pen... I'm thrilled to say the least. Thanks! Dee 22teen."
Haha, I'd be pissed off if someone did that to my CWC pen. ( Not that I have one... ) But I doubt I'd lose it in the first place.

Dee, I'd like you first to know that this was not your fault. It's the awful society in which we live. It's a society which cannot tolerate even the word, "bitch," in the workplace--a society in which, at a Staples Business Depot, no less, pens are no longer held with the proper reverence they deserve.
I mourn for your poorly censored pen, and wish--nay, I DEMAND--that Chris find the kindness within himself to replace your pen, so that you may once again bask in its full glory. Good luck.

:o See, this is why my Pens, Bitch pen never leaves the vicinity of my desk in my home. Oh the horror!!

I would have punched them in the face for taking out the best part of that pen. I'm sure theres plenty of other pens around to use, why use that one and scratch out the best part?
Stupid people.

Yep, my pen isn't allowed out of the house either Kelsey! Either someone will be so taken with the awesomeness of the pen and "acquire" it, or it will be barbarically censored.

You are way too trusting to take your pen to work. That being said it sucks that somebody would not stop for two seconds... think about it and look for another pen. It obviously did not belong to Staples to use for customers and it was not their pen so why wreck other people's property. SOME PEOPLE!!!!! ARRRRGHH
I hope they burn in Hell.

is it just me or does she look like M jackson??

I would have thought Staples should have its own never ending supply of pens. How is it they were so desperate for a pen they had to deface a cultural artifact?

*gasp* This is an outrage! I suggest you buy a tracking device so this doesn't happen again.
