The Dixon Ticonderoga is the only pencil I've used that doesn't have an absolute shit eraser, so I pick that.
I never use integrated erasers apart from emergency like my standalome eraser got launched out of the test room and the staff won't get it for me. Or for wood pencils when they are unusable for writing I'll save them as erasers. I just hate having partial erasers or stuck half erasers in mechanical pencils.

Gotta get yourself some of these
I haven't been in school in over 18 years, but thanks for the suggestion anyway.
Lots of people use pencils every day outside of school.
I'm not an artist so I haven't touched one since college. Why write, when typing is faster? Even a phone keyboard is better than a pencil. Plus you have the benefit of never worrying about losing what you wrote down.
While this is certainly the case for english, it does not apply to every language. Especially those with a lot of characters like Japanese.
You also remember stuff better when writing it down, and some people just prefer it.
