  1. Noah says:

    Now I have to try this. Maybe with a pen instead of a marker.

  2. eddiedog8 says:

    COOL FUMES

  3. Alleycat says:

    Hmmm. Maybe permanent ink will solve our oil crisis. My inner entreprenuer is kicking in gear.

  4. MacGyver says:

    If you thought the ink was hard to get out of your clothes, wait until you try to get out the burn marks

  5. treborx says:

    and right after “Kumbaya”, we’re all gonna sing “This little light of mine”. please don’t inhale the fumes, or try to cook your marshmallows.

  6. dvdhaxor says:

    Shopped!

  7. Jompe71 says:

    Lighting the fumes from the pen. Opening the window. Taking a piss. Letting the the wind blow the curtain over the pen. Curtain caught fire. Fire spreading to the wall. Flames spreading to the ceiling. House beyond savior. Talk about leaving a “permanent marker” !

    • jamisings says:

      No house is beyond the saving power of Jesus Christ.

      • Irony says:

        A church 3 blocks from my house burned down a few years back. The land is now a parking lot for a bank.

      • kc/cc says:

        Hmm. Where I’m from, anyway, this person just described peeing out the window while the house burns. That’s a house that would come pretty close to being a house beyond savior. That would at least get you a “Savior will return later” sticker on the garage door, like the ones that UPS leaves. I’m pretty sure there must be paperwork to sign in such an important transaction.

    • anodean says:

      People on their way to work said, “Baby what did you expect?”
      Gonna burst into flame – go ahead
      Burning down the house…

  8. Fluffy says:

    I am soooo lighting sharpies on my next birthday cake.

  9. Mailman says:

    Better to light a candle than to curse the darkness.

  10. dono1 says:

    So would this color be considered light brown?

  11. FunnyLittleMe says:

    I wonder if stationary factories use these to cut down on electricity bills? :P

  12. bob_super says:

    Is the flaming pen mightier than the incendiary bullet?

  13. Dogmeat says:

    This is how a permanent marker is used for highlighting.

  14. bob_super says:

    It was the most advanced nazi experiment to streamline autodafes – burn as you write.

  15. Dogmeat says:

    Before you begin the shaming of your drunk roommate who is passed out on the sofa, it is highly recommended that you sterilize the marker first.

  16. Fanboy Wife says:

    No, no, Sven! You’re supposed to make candles out of old crayons, not markers!

  17. keithybabes says:

    Right. Now I can see to write that letter… oh no, wait..

  18. FusionPlank23 says:

    Every Deviants Dream… You can vandalize the School Desk AND light it on fire at the same time!

  19. slapchop says:

    Now I know what a critic uses to write a “scorching review.”

  20. Thadius says:

    The marker of +1 Trollslaying! I’ve been looking for that!

  21. cablepower says:

    is this the map to the ark of the covenant?
    can any kitchen/marker combo be used – what time of day also please & thanks!

  22. kresz says:

    so roll roll roll my marker, take off the cap and burn, ridin high as hell flyin through palmdale skating on dantty rims. so roll roll the eighty three cadillac coupe devill if the tapes or my cds just dont sell i bet my cadi will.

  23. Chemist says:

    I don’t think, the plastic is withstanding the high temperatures of the flame long enough to make a good candle. Try this with PVC coated pens :)

  24. NM says:

    The Eternal Flame of the Unknown Marker. Memorializing all the fallen, bashed, tossed and abused permanent markers of the last half century. A fitting tribute.

  25. Name says:

    Such a “candle” produces extremely poisonous fumes. Never try this!

  26. glyptodon says:

    This is what happens when you outsource JFK’s memorial..

  27. scorpion451 says:

    Although the crash left their ship’s adaptive camouflage functioning perfectly, the tiny aliens still faced the great challenge of repairing their vessel. The critical engine repairs were progressing quickly, and the first engine tests revealed that they may yet escape this planet alive.

  28. anodean says:

    Heck, this would not only get rid of the fumes, but put them to good use! It might even be a great way to get one last bit of utility out of a dry one. Any chemistry majors out there to comment, and save me having actually to light one up to find out?

    Y’know, I remember a teacher *repairing* one of these back in the day. They sold ink to refill the reservoir in the metal body and included a few replacements for those little rectangular nibs to put in afterward. They were dense white felt, until the ink hit them, and about an inch long.

    So… you could refill a dead permanent marker – with, oh, say, WD40! – and keep it around as a backup pocket lantern! Woot!

    I love this place. :D

  29. whereswaldo says:

    When have you ever seen a marker that says “Permanent Marker”?

  30. maybechemguy says:

    this is probably not the best for your brain. I dont know whats in ink but i do know when im in lab, almost everything i burn needs to be under a hood because of the fumes and a few other reasons. If im not aloud to breathe in any fumes of chemicals i know of, breathing in fumes from chemicals you DONT know of will probably hurt you. I would honestly just use a hemp wick as an alternative. It will go out but its really green.

  31. Tbull says:

    I once tried, “and thus via modus ponens, I’m right”. I then had to try explaining what modus ponens was to my girlfriend, and she started to argue with me that it was illogical. I just gave up after that.

    After that I realized you just gotta date stupid women. This way when they make no sense you can excuse it, instead of engineers (or bio scientist in this case) that make no sense being completely intolerable.

  32. demon says:

    am i the only one that decided to light up a sharpie upon reading this? i just had to make sure it really would work.

  33. Anonymous says:

    all the time !

  34. vzwpix says:

    I say we loose at least one house as a result of this story…
