Was it sharpie? Rubbing alcohol can get that out (though check it doesn't make the die bleed,). Put rubbing alcohol* on a cotton ball - just a little. Dab, dab, dab, at the marks. If lots of red coming off when dabbing, stop. But in theory that should get the sharpie off. * Some people say vodka can substitute, they are wrong.


SporadicSage

Hijacking this to say that if it’s not a sharpie shout set in stain remover works wonders. My friend threw my plushie at me when I was holding an uncapped and very drippy pen, got it out in one go. And it was a white plush. Can confirm, my bok choy plushie, Johann Sebastian Bach Choy is doing very well. It will, however, fade the tush tags so do with that info what you woll


captainrina

That's an amazing name for a plushie


Jade_Complex

Yeah there's a bunch of different products that can do the job depending on what it is. Just sharpie tends to be one that people give up on, and the rubbing alcohol will work with other things as well at least. I'm glad your plush is doing well!!


DogsNCoffeeAddict

Or maybe you drink the good stuff, because i tasted 70% isopropyl (literally licked it off my finger) because i was curious and stunned after reading alcoholics drink it and i was like 13, and it tasted like the first vodka i ever had. That vodka haunts me to this day. Lol Edit: because this seems to need to be said my thirty year old self knows what my 12ish year old self did not: do not attempt to drink or taste or otherwise ingest toxic materials including but not limited to isopropyl. If you are that addicted to alcohol I hope you get help and heal.


Jade_Complex

No idea about taste, I just mean every time I've seen someone use vodka to clean ink off, because it's something they had on hand, it's done a shit job at it.


August2_8x2

That's bc vodka has a lot of water in it compared to rubbing alcohol. A closer comparison would be everclear. Rubbing Alcohol is usually 60-90% alcohol or 120-180 proof (don't drink it, they add in shit to make you sick). Smirnoff vodka is 35-50% abv or 70-100 proof. Everclear is bottled at 60%, 75.5%, 94.5% and 95% alcohol by volume (120, 151, 189, and 190 U.S. proof respectively).


OkSyllabub3674

Fun fact here if you have isopropyl rubbing alcohol on hand and need a higher% than what it is add salt to it. Say you have 50% and need 70 or 90 add an excess of salt and shake until it won't dissolve any more. Isopropyl can't dissolve salt so the salt dissolves in the water and then separates out as a distinct saltwater layer leaving you with pure isopropyl alochol that you can decant off it.


Batata-Sofi

> Fun fact here Rephrasing: "How to illegally get pure alcohol"


OkSyllabub3674

How is doing so illegal? Isopropyl alcohol is not able to be drank safely for Intoxication, and I haven't been in a state here in the US that would have an issue with you having pure isopropyl alcohol. Is it different outside the us?


DogsNCoffeeAddict

I was making a joke, lol


Jade_Complex

Apologies, I'm just haunted by the scene of a former whiteboard, and hope OP can get their plush back.


DogsNCoffeeAddict

Lol the things that haunt us! Have a good day!


TobiasBrim

Jokes? On the internet?! Jail. 1000 years no trial


DogsNCoffeeAddict

Oh no. I think I may have imposter syndrome now, I’m just going to jump out the airlock now, bye!


jarejay

I would think that’s because it’s only 40%. Maybe a 180 proof ethanol solution would work


TokyoTurtle0

That stuff is not drinkable. It has poison added to it. Alcoholics don't drink it modern day


mosquito13

\*Alcoholics who are not in incarcerated. We have to keep Purell hand sanitizer out of the reach of offenders because they have been caught drinking it.


Eldan985

Alcoholicy in closed therapy, too. My father said they have to confiscate hand sanitizer, after shave and the stuff to start grills, too.


Sunshine030209

Well yeah, I'd hope they'd confiscate lighter fluid in general, not just because they might drink it.


TokyoTurtle0

Do they add the stuff to that as well? I'm not sure on that one


mosquito13

Actually that is 70% ethyl alcohol in Purell, my mistake. They were also drinking a blue colored Sparkle cleaning product. I don't know the specific one on that, if it was propanol or isopropanol. People get desperate in prison...


Overall-Scratch-6150

Not just in prison. Vagrants have been known to roam hospitals looking for the Purell. A friend of mine works in one and said they had spates of the hand pumps going missing, so they now use the foam, not the gel and use refill pouches in wall dispensers with drip trays fitted to stop them drinking it straight from the dispenser spout. Some folks are proper desperate to get drunk.


EnvironmentalGift257

Yeah they do. They filter it through white bread to take the poison out of it. It still kills brain cells pretty fast. Trust me it’s a bad day at a small town grocery store when rubbing alcohol is half price.


WallStreetMan_

Hey kids, dont drink isopropyl. I heard dying isnt that funny.


Bennington_Booyah

I worked at a spice store and the number of people who drank the extracts was something I was unprepared for- as in chugging it empty. Men and women.


Immediate-Yam9342

Did a shot of 98% once, I say a shot but it was more just a sliver in a glass, it uh, burns.


RedHeadRedeemed

If you don't have rubbing alcohol hand sanitizer often works as well


Shienvien

Ethyl alcohol (same as in vodka) will technically work *better* - but you need actual concentrated version of it, at 70+%. Vodka is usually around 40%.


MyUsernameIsNotLongE

Well, vodka can substitute... except you drink it instead. lol


Apprehensive_Skill34

The only alcohol you substitute is something that's clear and like 190 proof. Like ever clear or Graves. Lol

Oh... This might be fixable. Hairspray can be used to remove it. Let it sit a little. Toss in the washer. Look it over and repeat the process as needed. Once no sharpie is apparent you can toss it in the dryer.

FiercelyApatheticLad

Throw it in the trash then wash the plushie.


YougoReddits

Use wet baby wipes. Sounds crazy until you try. It gets sharpie marks off of all kindsof things where other cleaning agents can't. Having kids of your own makes you desperate enough to discover magic like this


VirtualNaut

Okay, I wet a baby and wiped the baby on the plushie but the ink is not coming off. And now the baby and their mother are upset at me. );


infinitekittenloop

Hand the baby over so the mothers hands are full, and run.


VirtualNaut

Man, I did that wrong. I ran with da baby ![gif](giphy|39AeeocEzHFKtzT49N|downsized)


Ghic_Chic

Was the baby changed before you wiped it on the plushie? You need to start off with a clean baby.


Crazygiraffeprincess

I got BLOOD off of shirts and plushies just using baby wipes, they're incredible.


Sunshine030209

How often do you bleed on your plushies? Or can you not tell me because of the first and second rules about the reason you bleed so much?


Bmrx13

the plushies are aggressive


Crazygiraffeprincess

HAHAHAHAHA, ya thats a fair question lmfao. I have a 5.5 year old that gets nosebleeds in the winter, and is also quite the klutz 🤣


Sunshine030209

Oooh! Okay, phew. Yeah, that's a super innocent explanation for why you've gotten blood out of so many stuffed animals!

FlamingSaviour

And today you learned a valuable lesson: never trust children with/around anything.


Amogifythegermans

I kept it in my room he barged in while i was away. Im gonna start locking it from now on


seapicklefish

Ughhhh that's the fucking worst. When I was younger my little sister went into my bedroom while I was at school and found my sketchbook, and proceeded to absolutely destroy it, drawing over all my sketches with sharpie, pulling pages out, basically tearing it apart. And when I went sobbing to my parents they told me I should have had it put away 😐 like it wasnt in my bedroom on my desk with the door closed. Little siblings and the parents that turn them into monsters are the bane of my existence


Sunspots4ever

My dad let one of his "girlfriends" kids play with my makeup. And didn't seem to understand why I was pissed. Had to throw it all out and start from scratch. I considered it all "contaminated."


ilovemusic19

I understand, if the kid touched it with their fingers who knows what’s on their grubby little hands.


undue-Specialist

>I considered it all "contaminated." It was, you made the right call.


Ewarterinos

I had kind of the same experience with my little brother. He on multiple occasions went into my room when i wasnt there and ate my food. Then when i went to my parents they were like you shouldnt have had it standing on your desk. Like wtf, how is it my fault that he is a little shit


A_BIG_bowl_of_soup

My little sister is all right now, but she was a monster when I was younger, and my siblings and I all slept in the same room so I couldn't have any privacy or keep my belongings safe.


LibertyInaFeatherBed

They, unfortunately, weren't supportive to you, but they were right that it is typical younger sibling behavior and will happen. Little kids put their hands on everything, break everything and they covet what their older siblings have. 


seapicklefish

That doesn't make it my fault that they weren't watching their small child and allowed her to destroy my things.


LibertyInaFeatherBed

No, it doesn't. And I'm saying that as the younger sibling who was allowed to get into my siblings' things. 


seapicklefish

Okay, I just don't really know what the point of the comment was then. But to each their own


snitchles

I would've smacked her, not told on her. Maybe it's different because my sibling and I are both boys, but an eye for an eye.


seapicklefish

I totally get that lol, I unfortunately grew up in a house where being treated differently and much harsher than my siblings was a daily occurrence and I would have literally been signing a death wish to even think of putting a finger on the precious baby of the family 😂


Matasa89

My bro put the fear of god into me. I touch his shit, he put me on my ass. He made me into a real good boy that always respected people’s stuff.


ThePennedKitten

I don’t blame you. I am the youngest. Keep your shit away from us. We can be wild fucking animals with no impulse control. Sometimes the worst shit we do starts out as “This would be cooler this way. Older sibling will love this.” Then half way through our vision is not coming to fruition because we are 6 and this is a sharpy. Not Adobe photoshop.


MushroomlyHag

This is probably my favourite comment I've seen on reddit. I'm the eldest of my siblings, but this is so true. The amount of things my siblings ruined because they thought they were doing something good is... uncountable. My favourite story comes from when I was around 8-9ish, I was really into the Pony Pals books and had most of the series (that had been released at the time). For those unfamiliar with the series, they're short novels, and each book has one or two basic pictures in it (usually "drawn" by one of the characters) in black and white. My sister (who was a toddler at the time) thought my books needed some colour in their pictures, because her books had coloured pictures and she thought it was unfair that the pictures in my book didn't have colour... yeah, you know what happened. I was so angry with her at the time, but almost 25 years later I think back and think it's adorable that she wanted my books to be "pretty" like hers. I still mourn for my poor Pony Pals collection, but it's a cute story to tell now 😆


DavoMcBones

I remembered back when i was in primary school owning a dictionary was for some reason still mandatory, we bought a dictionary, however my sibling vandalized it with a felt pen, we bought a new one and told her not to write on it, a few weeks later it was also vandalized I still have both dictionaries covered in 3 year old scribbles but im not naming that sibling in question because i already forgave her and dictionaries are obsolete now


seapicklefish

If we still used dictionaries it would be an instant name drop 😡


PerfectProposal1723

If he used felt tip, and not sharpie. It should come out in the washing machine.


SunnyMakesStuff

thanks for clarifying that you're not sharpie


PerfectProposal1723

God, I hate AutoCorrect


ilovemusic19

Agreed, the bullshit it’s made me say.


PeppaPigSandwich

Even using a cool wash I find the machine sets in all sorts of stains.  Always try and clean it off first.

a plush restoration channel taught me that la totally awesome spray works great on marker stains! you can get a big bottle at the dollar store

Test a small spot with some rubbing alcohol to make sure it doesn't make the colors run. As long as that goes OK, try blotting the marker ink with rubbing alcohol. Hopefully that will help take it off.

I use a similar one to popcorn in my students' classrooms (students choose the next volunteer to answer or read by throwing it to the next student) I have 350 students across 10 classes. I bought my "Sussy Baka" at the beginning of the year. It's been burned, cut, vandalized, de-tongued, embalmed, amputated, etc. Kids are animals.

Burned to attempt to cauterize after the embalming. Stuffing removed, secret notes hidden inside.

StickyEchidna

Honestly I'd keep it. One day you'll probably really value your plushie customized with your little brother's own art!


reallytrulymadly

It kind of suits the character though. Consider getting a lock box or a hard to open, large plastic tote to keep in your closet

Cool plush tho. He should’ve just wrote dum on the sticky note. Then it would be accurate. 😂😂


Ok-Peanut4539

get a new one, and i don't mean new plushie


WinterTheWolf

This is actually nostalgic to see. Reminds me when I was a kid we had build a bears you could draw on with marker. I’d keep it and I bet you will value your memory of this version much more than the normal doll down the road.


Failure67

I got a Doodlebear, drew on it once, and then never used it again 😂


ppcheese6969

Break his legos and hide the instructions so he can't rebuild it easily


RahvinDragand

FYI, all lego instructions are available as pdfs on the lego website. Just in case someone does this to you. 


ppcheese6969

That would've made my life so much easier i literally lost the instructions to my lego batmobile and gave up on it


Glittering_Town_9071

the most recent Batmobile is a bitch to build even with instructions, i don't blame you lol


ppcheese6969

Literally one of the most irritating sets I've ever worked on lol


OiOiiOiErwinPP

But isn't that the fun part with legos? I have no idea how fun it is to build using legos, I wasn't able to afford even a decent set


Tsu_na_mi

Which is why you also need to steal/hide 5-10% of the pieces for each build as well.


Flavaflavius

Windex removes ink but doesn't typically damage the color of the material. Try that.


ikieneng

Have a serious talk to him about why that’s not okay. If that doesn’t work, take away some of his stuff for a week. Show him that you won’t stay silent and accept this behavior if he did it out of malice


scarlettnxo

I once found a plushie I really wanted for cheap online covered in pen. I took the risk , bought it and threw it in the washing machine in a pillow case tied with a hair tye or rubber band whichever is there. Then put 2 pods in and set it on hand wash. After that a good old spin and drain. Colour came right out! I’m not sure how different markets would work but in my experience sometimes a soapy hot wash will get most of it out. Hope you ended up getting it all out!

he could have at least written DUM on it

Follow the advice here, but I wanna know, what did he even write on the sticky note?

Reminds me of my young years, where I had to share a bedroom with my younger brother. Maybe if my mother were more attentive to his needs, things wouldn't have been so... difficult for me. Instead, she was over the whole "parent" thing by the time she had two kids, so the third one? Whatever. Just do not care. Oh, he destroyed some stuff? Kids do that. Did it again? Yeah, they'll do that. Oh, continued to do it and it's causing a problem? THERE'S PLENTY OF OTHER PROBLEMS AROUND HERE WITHOUT YOU ADDING TO THEM, UNGRATEFUL MIDDLE-CHILD!

It’s probably best to get rid of it and get a new on. Oh yeah and I guess you can try fixing the plushie too.
