Do you still use Pencils?

There was a time that Pencils where the most popular writing tool. But modern technology led to its decline. Nowadays I rarely see people using it anymore, come to think of it, the last time I remembered using one is when I marked a piece of wood I was going to saw off and that was 6 months ago.

The last time I ever used a pencil or lead pencil if it counts lol, was when I used to go to college. Now though, when I need to make notes or reminders, I use either my phone or computer lol. I do rarely use pen or pencil when I'm on the phone with a representative and they make right a number or depending what I'm calling for since it takes a while to open the notepad program or app.

I do most of my research and other first draft writing in pencil, especially sharp ones. Unlike @Corbin5 below I find a sharp pencil flows more smoothly for me.

I use fancy mechanical pencil that cost $100 new, have been using it for 10 years. Does that count? I also still have my artist 2B, 4B, 8B, etc, pencils that I use for their intended application.
