    Why they dry out within hours, smudge nonstop, not even a good shade of black, wipe clean with hand sanitizer on hard surfaces, and bleed to Illegibility on paper. Literal bad at everything they are the maga of pens.

      Only on Lemmy would someone get indignant about pens…. you don’t have to love Sharpie, just accept that the world includes some who do. It’s ok.

      Hold up, you’re saying they wipe off when cleaned with strong alcohol based cleaning solution? Weird.

        Yeah, surprisingly enough, rubbing alcohol makes a great degreaser, it’s also good for like, when you take a sticker or a label off of something, and it leaves a residue behind? That stuff, rubbing alcohol takes it right off.

        Personal anecdote, one of my buddies in college had the misfortune of “being the first guy to fall asleep at the party” so of course we drew a bunch of dicks and stuff on his face. The only thing we could find to clean it off the next day was a bottle of 90% isopropyl, and a little bit got into his eye, he got so mad that he punched a hole in his bathroom wall.
