The "'Disappointed Mother' Anti-Chew Pen" idea gave me this idea
for a
cheaper, and (in my opinion) more effective solution to the same
problem.
If you're annoyed by your co-workers/classmates/comrade's pen-
gnawing habit, simply spritz a foul-tasting, yet nontoxic liquid on
their
pen caps.
This organic and naturally extracted liquid, marketed as
"Chew Adieu", is packaged in
small,
pocket-concealable spray bottles. Soon, if applied enough times,
the spray will eventually induce a Pavlovian response
where, every time the colleague thinks of chewing their pen, they
will get a
bad
taste in their mouth. This will wean them off the
habit over time.

Strictly speaking it's against nail biting and thumb sucking, but same principle. [jutta, Aug 25 2009]

I'm imagining an office where workers sniff their pens all the time without knowing exactly why... |
