This silly pen looks more like a syringe than a pen. It even has red liquid that resembles blood that swooshes around inside as you write.

Random aside: Those pens are popular at videogame press junkets. I think they were handed out to promote Capcom's Resident Evil.

These pens were pretty common and popular when I was in middle school/early high school here in the states. They are pretty funny though. Unless you have an aversion to blood or needles.
