I just dropped a Magic Marker (dark blue) on my favorite tshirt! 
I was just thinking moments before, "I'm going to spill something on this!", while gulping down a red koolade. I missed the red, but caught the blue!!!
Anyone got any tips for a) getting out marker, or b) reversing time??

I haven't tried it on marker but tide pens seem to work amazingly for me! either that or scrub it with some oxy- powder, hope it works

Thanks, B! I need to get both of those. I panicked-- I googled for a quick answer, and ended up using rubbing alcohol. BAD idea! I was freverently blotting when I realized I was stamping ink spots into the tshirt where there were none before.
ARG!
So I panicked again, grabbing everything out of the washer and throwing the shirt in with 2 scoops of detergent on warm/cold setting. I'm mentally biting my fingers to the knuckles waiting for it to be done with.
On my list: Tide pen, spray 'n wash, and bleach. I can't believe I don't even own bleach.

don't worry I don't own any bleach either. I only buy stain removers or detergent that is colour safe because I do not trust myself with that stuff
