You can remove sharpie by writing over it with a dry-erase marker and then removinging by rubbing it.
You call usually also use isopropyl alcohol, but you may remove more than you intended.
So dry-erase first and then go nuclear with iso if the marker didn’t work.
Tried the iso and now my dick is removed…
Maybe don’t buy your packer off of Temu?
Wait, have them buy another and see if it happens again.
The results would double the sample size and better support the conclusion.
While this is true, I really just wanna see how many times he’ll do it again.
Having repeatable results is important to establish.
Agreed.
Drawing over it again with the same sharpie works too if you wipe it quick.
Found this out in school when someone wrote some less than acceptable words on the board in permanent marker. The teacher scribbled over it with drywipes, waited a few seconds and wiped it away.
They said it was because essentially drywipe marker is a permanent marker with solvents.
In the same vein as isopropyl alcohol, hand sanitizer works too. And more people are carrying that now since covid.
Coming from a non-American, an inches-only tape measure is incredibly cursed
As an American, I was a bit flabbergasted when I looked through all the tape measures at the store, and none of them had a metric side
I found one when I looked but it was a bit spendy cause it was fancy in other ways. Still went for it cause I want both units.
The rest of the world thanks you <3
As a Canadian I hate it too.
Yeah, a good chunk of the ones available here only have inches, too. It was hard to find one with both when I bought my last tape measure.
Almost every measuring tape I saw at my local Home Depot in Vancouver had metric on it.
It was a home hardware and most of the longer ones with nice features were inches only. There were a bunch of metric only ones, too, but it’s nice to have both when some furniture descriptions have only one or the other because the tape then handles the conversion without having to remember if that 2.2 factor is inches to cm or kg to lbs or both.
Though it could be that whoever decides what products to stock at home Depot is just better at their job than whoever does it at home hardware, or maybe I’m in the minority locally of wanting both and preferring metric if I have to choose one.
That’s how I feel about Celsius being for everyone.
even though I know it’s literally the best option, my pea sized brain goes “wait? 30° is hot??”
30°F is beautiful when you have had a few -10°F days. The difference between 70°F & 30°F is the same as 30°F & -10°F.
110°F - If I don’t get A/C soon, I literally might die.
70°F - It’s so nice, I’m going to open the windows.
30°F - It’s so cold there’s ice outside. Look, snow!
-10°F - The snot in my nose is frozen. I can’t feel my fingers and they hurt at the same time.
-50°F - I didn’t expect seals to make that noise.
You don’t have to use the same unit in all situations. Just ask the British.
As an American engineer I agree
Even more cursed if those same markings where on a CM calibrated scale.
Fractional metric for the win
Yeah, fractions of 10 that is.
Those fractions are barely readable and I’m not even dyslexic
That’s a tape for the new guy on the crew so he doesn’t look like a dum-dum. Until the crew sees his tape anyway.
I have one that measures in feet and inches, so you can only see it’s 9’8", you have to do 9*12+8 in your head.
Well yeah, if you were raised learning imperial measurements, you’d probably find a metric-only tape to be an criminal abomination just as easily.
No, they’re fine. It’s the bilingual tapes that are a pain in the ass. You have to guess at half the measurements no matter your preferred scale.
Yes, if you were also a illogical moron.
Toss it in the metal heap at your local recycling centre. With the archaic units, it’s unusable anyway.
How retarded do you have to be to have the fractions written out on the entire measure
Retarded enough to not use the metric system.
I still don’t get how they can live with such a retarded measurement system.
Then I see who they elected as a President and I understand everything.
I still don’t get how they can live with such a retarded measurement system.
We can’t.
Scientists do everything in metric, but that’s where it stops.
Food industry tries to label everything both ways, so we all get some minimal exposure; but this is like expecting to learn French in Canada just by hanging around. Machinists cope by using thousandths (of an inch), but still have to translate to work with standard screw dimensions. Bakers do everything at multiples of cups or pounds, so fractions don’t really come up. Housing framers use, maybe, down to the half or quarter inch and have easier to read tape measures for this; story-boards and tick-sticks are used to avoid measuring entirely.
If it wasn’t for raw materials (across the board) being sold in nominal empirical sizes, I would sooner just use the metric system.
Meanwhile, the home kitchen is at war. Recipe books have everyone else dicking around with all the crazy fractional volume and weight measures. Either you’re a virtuoso with these, or you’re terrible at it and burn every meal - there is no middle ground. This might explain our relationship with restaurant food.
It’s not like erasing it’ll make your dick bigger 🤷🏻♂️
Actually nipples
Just cut the tape that the 4 inch mark and then add 4 to all the inches on the tape. Fixed.
Found Elon’s Lemmy account…
Show off…
This was on Reddit 2 weeks ago and I answered magic eraser.
People are desperate for upvotes here too.
Yes, I do.
Deodorant will get it off.
Magic eraser (melamine foam).
