Today, my little brother got mad at me, so he colored the entire screen of my new iPod Touch with a black sharpie. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, my brother got mad at me for breaking the screen on his phone. He'd already dropped it so many times that the whole screen was cracked to the point that you couldn't see anything on it, but for some reason, I am fully responsible for its destruction because I accidentally delivered the finishing blow. FML
Today, I gave my little brother my iPhone so he could play a game. I soon forgot about it, and when I got it back two hours later, there was pudding and a couple of big cracks in it. FML
Today, I woke up to see my four year-old brother with a sharpie, trying to play “Connect the Dots” with my acne. FML
Today, my brother sent me over a dozen screenshots from his phone, because he couldn't work out why it wasn't capturing all the paint he'd managed to smear on the screen. FML
Today, my brother thought it would be funny to disable my iPod Touch for 45 minutes. After 45 minutes, I went to enter my password. I missed a number accidentally. 50 minutes to go. FML
Today, I discovered that my sister coloured in the pages of my college text books with Sharpie as "revenge." FML
Today, my brother decided to help me artificially age some of my artwork by singeing the edges slightly. Apparently "my brother set fire to my homework" isn't a valid excuse. FML
Today, after saving up for weeks, I bought myself an iPad. Because mine is better than the one my parents bought my ten-year-old brother, he got pissed and threw it into our pool. I'm now grounded for getting angry and calling him a bastard in the aftermath. FML
Today, I found my brother tampering with my laptop. He had changed the entire settings, in ways I don't even know how to fix. I finally had to get my mom to threaten him to change it back to its original setting. I'm 15. He's six and can barely get dressed by himself. FML
Today, my younger brother decided it would be fun to slam a door on my hand while I was holding my brand new $200 cell phone that I got for my birthday. Nothing says Happy Birthday like a broken phone to go along with a broken hand. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Nail polish? Hell, just use some alcohol!
IgniteMe28 0
yup, rubbing alcohol works like a charm. i often buy used CD's from Half Priced Books and they generally have a number written on the jewel case written in permanent marker and I can always get it off with rubbing alcohol.

I've used Mr. Clean Magic Eraser in the past to clean things like that. Dry, of course. But it really does work amazingly well on fragile electronics.

Yeah, alcohol, nail polish remover, and dry erase markers are your best bet. I bring an EXPO to every install, in case i need to un-graffiti a fire alarm strobe(just ink the surface, let it dry, and wipe it off with a paper towel, or your finger.)

Lol I agree re-coloring ftw

I'm not sure I would use something like a magic eraser because it works a lot more like a very fine sandpaper than a sponge. Stick with a gentle cloth/cotton ball and alcohol/polish remover.

no nail polish, if you use an ereasable marker over the sharpie it will wipe off easy. I'm one of nine kids. I know how to get stuff out.

this whole thing would've worked out better if you had a screen protector on it.

dry erase markers work best... sometimes I draw over the webcam camera just to change the color when I'm bored... color over it with a dry erase and it'll be all gone c:

Close, second. FAIL. OP, I've never had this problem so I guess try nail polish remover or Windex. As for your brother, kick him in the groin so hard that his testicles never descend or are forced to ascend.

An alcohol- or acetone-based cleaner should take the marker right off. If it doesn't, try Windex. And your post reminded me again why I don't want to have kids. Most of 'em are unholy terrors.
