Pen Conspiracy!

Oh god. I just had to run and hug a cushion and drink tea, all because of a pen.
See, my green pen (cases are green...) ran out - disaster! - so I had to buy a new one. Harder than you'd think, given I don't like biro for my notes, just gel pen, but I found one, and was quite happy.
I just made notes, and idly flicked the non-nib end of my pen over the paper while reading a case on screen.
When I looked down, stripes of the green writing had disappeared!
A search on the internet reveals my new pen to in fact be a magic pen.
I don't know whether to be scared, or buy hundreds...
Edit: Unrelatedly, reading cases about chocolate makes me crave 70% dark chocolate, which I don't have (...they were talking about how they make it. Damn them.) and now I'm reading a case about the Wombles.
doo-di-di-doo dee-di-di-doo...Welcome to the Twilight Zone... AKA my head.
Edit of Edit: ...dude. I only just realised why the defendant was trying to call his skips company "Wombles Skips".
All together now... #Remember you're a Womble!#
Edit Edit Edit: The next case is about Sesame Street and the MUPPETS!!! *loves*
