So… Crayons?

and these are the best scented markers.

i thought you meant a different kind of dry highlighter. i was going to say “dry highlighters are my favorite thing to throw across the room towards the trash can in anger.” heh.

Mostly, these days, I use highlighters when reviewing contracts

Was this an attempt to connect w/ the everyday Jane/Joe out there? Hey ya’ll, it’s contract reviewing time!

I love these too, on the increasingly rare occasions I’m not marking up docs with electronic ink. Be warned that if you press too hard with gel highlighters, they put down a thick layer that can stick pages together in books.

Sorry, but these are the bomb. Never going back to markers or anything else.

Dry highlighters didn’t ruin my expensive textbooks

While I haven’t heard of these before, If it means saving textbooks (and library books, for that matter) then I would heartily support their adoption to the exclusion of all else.
