Goof Up with Goof Off
Apparently, if you use Goof Off on the plastic part of your laptop that had stickers on it, it will take the color right off the plastic. So, if say your laptop is BLACK, any place you rubbed Goof Off will now be WHITE.
Apparently.
And if you WERE to be that dumb, then using a black Sharpie to cover up the now white parts of your laptop might make your dumbness not so glaringly obvious.

Aww! I hate that. I would be so mad if I’d used it on my beautiful new pink computer.

“…not so glaringly obvious.”
That sounds like a good name for either a blog or a rock band. Thanks.

Thanks for the Goof-OFf tip. Unrelated. I don’t usually read Sci-Fi…and I just found your blog (like it) and I looked over at “Currently Reading” and saw “Hidden Empire” by Kevin J. Anderson…
I just bought that this weekend based on a review by Neil Peart (Rush drummer, and well read individual).
Weird.

Love the randomness….I prefer to use the orange-peel-based “Goo Gone” for such problems. It hasn’t taken the color off of anything that I can recall.
In other news, I stole James Lipton’s famous questionnaire from Actors Studio and started a meme for which I’ve tagged you. Enjoy!

You should have used Goo Gone. Different brand I guess but it does not do that. Please don’t hit me. LOL.
