The Pencil That Was Red.

'the pencil is red'

This one tweet, made a whole fandom explode into chaos, and it created a whole new fandom of its own. A fandom of red pencils.

Today, Monday the 3rd of September, 2012, was the day that Josh Hutcherson changed the way that we look at red pencils forever.

Okay, so all he said was that there was a red pencil, but all of us went crazy. And by us, I mean the 'Hutchers' and 'Tributes'. We all changed our twitter names to 'red pencil', we made trends to do with red pencils, we even made fan accounts for red pencils! Like seriously, how extremely ridiculous is that?!

But the thing is, just by something so simple happening, we all came together and had a lot of fun. We obsessed over something, but we enjoyed it. In a way, it kind of brought some of us closer together. 

Yeah, to you, it probably sounds really stupid. But it's true! I had so much fun this afternoon, and it was all because of a red pencil.

May the red pencils be ever in your favour.
