Hand sanitizer works great too!
This is the answer. Shit works so well I routinely just use sharpies to write on mirrors or windows when I need to. Any surface that's glass, metal, or in a pinch hard plastic if it's not going to sit too long. Come in later with dry erase. Fantastic way to leave notes on the mirror. Dry erase won't hold up to the steam in a shower if it's something that needs to be there for a bit, like an on going list, daily affirmations or some shit, or reminders.
China markers are perfect for this. I made this move a few years ago to mark my left overs in the fridge.
China markers come off when rubbed intentionally, unlike dry erase that erase with the slightest incidental rub.
Permanent markers can "bake" on in the dishwasher (as can dry erase) where China markers rub off.
OOOH, that china. I was like what a peculiar name 😂
Aka grease pencils but I've always known them as China markers.
My phone keeps auto correcting to capitalize China and I just am too lazy to fix it.
I'll check these out! Never heard of em
Rubbing alcohol has always worked for me too. May be easier to have on hand than dry erase markers.

Any alcohol like methanol, ethanol, isopropanol
Other two much safer than methanol
Methanol and isopropanol have super similar lethal doses if you're drinking them
I think I remember hearing methanol got most of its bad rep (over IPA) because it was commonly produced with the ethanol when moonshine was made by inexperienced people. During prohibition, people would go to these inexperienced distillers because of the low cost (or even try doing it themselves) and get sick.
It is also used to "denature" (make unfit for consumption) ethanol for industrial use to be exempt from alcohol taxes. Bittering agents are more common now though, especially when the product is consumer facing and the residue left by the agent isn't important.

You're not going to absorb enough to be dangerous using it to clean something like this, and if you're drinking the stuff, well...at least the methanol warns you before it kills you
Alcohol or other solvents like Acetone work, but another easy trick a lot of people aren't aware of is to go over a permanent marker with a dry erase marker, and then wipe it off.
I shit you not, it works. We tested this across several whiteboards. First in inconspicuous spots, then on main parts of the board. Occasionally there was some residue remaining if the permanent marker stayed on for long, but the solvent they use in dry erase markers also erases permanent marker material.
YMMV on a tape measure though...
Even though this is a dick joke, I'd use isopropyl or ethanol no higher than 70%. Acetone tends to strip/degrade paint and if on a plastic substrate could degrade the plastic.
Source: I work in an analytical lab for plastics and paints and I have made many mistakes.
Acetone will work if nothing else works, but it's just as likely to strip the underlaying paint off. You can mostly use alcohol to clean it and apply some acetone just on the actual stain with a qtip, that makes it less likely to be noticeable.
Itll work but...It's sharpie. I can take sharpie off a smooth surface with a kimwipe and elbow grease. Acetone is overkill and likely to damage your surface if it's paint or plastic yo. Use a less aggressive solvent. Also we've destroyed a whiteboard or two with acetone.
No but if you're looking to sell it, I need to do some measuring that it would be perfect for
I'm surprised that someone isn't selling measuring devices specifically for the penis
I recall a website from the web 1.0 days that sold rulers, soda cans, and other common everyday objects that were specially manufactured to be smaller than the actual object. The intent was to show someone your penis pic with an undersized soda can to make it look bigger.
genuis
I used to joke with a friend that we should start a business selling rulers that were inaccurate so that there was about 1/2 to 3/4 inch between the inch marks. We could have been rich
I understand it with teenage boys, but I have always been fascinated with guys being so obsessed over how big their cock is. Seems to be common knowledge that women don't really care because it feels no different to them. You will rarely hear a women talk about one that was so big that it hit their cervix.
Or when you do, they talk about it negatively like "ouchie it was too big." Sometimes ppl do prefer a girthier hog though.

Just write the name of your coworker in between.
Gasoline, and if that doesn't work - Acetone
Acetone might take the other markings off too. I'd try Isopropanol.
Just go straight up brake-cleaner, take off the yellow as well
And if it still doesn't work apply a flame (may reduce reuse potential but will definitely remove existing markings).
And if it still doesn’t work, apply a hydraulic press (may reduce reuse potential but will definitely be exciting).

If you have a whiteboard marker, you can draw over it and then erase it. Works wonders.
Draw over it with a dry erase marker, then wipe it off.
I was uh measuring the minimum radius of soft versus hard PC water cooling tubing. Yeah that tracks...
I don't think it's going to be very useful to anybody unfortunately...
This is why woman can't estimate length. They're shown 3" and told it's 6".
Sometimes ethanol (i.e. rubbing alcohol) works.
If not, try acetone, same thing used to remove nail polish.
That took me a while. My first thought was it was an ad hoc durometer gage for cushion foam or jello or something, but the scale was backwards…
Anyway. Isopropanol/isopropyl-alcohol/that-shit-in-the-medicine-cabinet will take care of it. I use it all the time.
This is an amazing idea I love it
I'm certainly not impressed with the measured length at hard
Toothpaste can work sometimes too.
They are called "permanent" for a reason
