Tonight Show Sharpie

I rarely win anything, but my luck changed a couple months ago when I won what will undoubtedly be passed on to my children, and my children's children, and my children's children's children with hushed reverence and sacrosanct awe.

I won a The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien branded Sharpie.

I know. I was speechless at first as well. Here is what came in the mail.



"Eric! Dudebro! Congrats on winning ... wait for it ... a BRAND NEW MARKER!!! Yes! - Aaron :)"

I must admit that not only did I win a priceless family heirloom branded with my favorite late night comic, but I also won a new word that has since become a staple in my everyday vocabulary to the chagrin of my loved ones: "Dudebro."

That is not all! I have since discovered that this Sharpie has special powers beyond being totally sweet. It is also magical!

Here is an example of my attempt to draw a dog with a regular Sharpie:



And here is my attempt at a dog with The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien Sharpie:



Not the best dog ever drawn, but at least a 100x improvement over the first attempt. That is the power of this marker!
