Get the utilizemug. 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.

Cop: Hey, what're you kids doing in there? Watching the submarine races?
People in car: Gak! Where are my pants?
