I think I'm going to start wearing a pocket protector

The freaking pen I bought from my brother leaked out all of its ink into my jeans.

Oh the yellowish ring that is around the stain right now showed up after I put it through the washer.

why did you have to buy it from your brother? Oh and btw-laundry tip number 1...NEVER NEVER NEVER wash anything with ink on it unless it's pretreated..hairspray works great at taking ink out of clothing.
so does Murphy's oil soap (yes, the kind for floors) and also Fels Naptha Soap.

Oh cuz I offered to at first. I saw it on his desk and was like "whoa I'll buy that pen off you."

Then he's all, "Dude you know that's straight shady. You know we like *crosses fingers* this."

Then I'm just like, "Damn, bro, don't be like this. It be yo pen and I want it and I gonna pay for it."

Then he's all, "Oh, so it's gonna be that?"

Then I gave him 50 cents.

Will this still work even though I've already washed it? So I just spray some spray de hair on it then wash like normal? Sorry, I'm a clothes washing n00b.

scissors take out ink stains pretty well, even after they set

Yikes P.W. I don't understand HALF of what you just said..hahaha..anyway,you must SATURATE the stain with hairspray,inside and out,then wash it in WARM water or COLD (if it was not washed before)..grocery stores also sell a stuff called CARBONA spot remover-it's what the dry cleaners use..that works great too..once the spot gets faded, use straight TIDE (REGULAR FORMULA) on it and rub it in good, then wash it. Should get it out pretty good.

well yes actually-TONS, what do you need?
here's one for ya..
ALWAYS plant basil plants between tomato plants, it makes the tomatoes sweeter with a nice italian taste.
And always stick some fish bones under the original tomato plant-makes it have a strong main stem.
-Bounce fabric softener sheets makes a good bug repellant-rub it on the OUTSIDE of your clothes and hat before you go out and the bugs will leave you alone.

oh my gawd, my sister would love those tomato tips...and i never thought about fabric softener being used for that...the only tip i would have is...

attach your fabric softeners to your cpu fans and your room will smell fresh all day long...hehehe

you should start a thread...obby's tips (kinda like martha stewart or something).
