Ask HN: What kind of whiteboard does not use dry erase markers?

I write directly on the drywall, it's a lifehack that forces you to accept your past ideas and thoughts.

...Permanently? You just keep everything indefinitely?

Until I move out yea

Your comment reminds me of my 18~25 year old self when I never renewed an apartment lease as a way to avoid cleaning my bathtub.

It was my least favorite childhood chore and I’m mid40s and still haven’t done it once myself. At this point it’s petty but I refuse to do it on principle alone, to keep the streak alive

Once, long ago, I wrote some pithy, earth-shattering thoughts onto the wall while extremely high, and was self-satisfied at the gift I'd bestowed upon the world. The next day I had no idea or recollection of what it meant, and on reflection I wish it had been on a white board and not wallpaper.

When I was renovating my kitchen, I left some notes on the wall before putting up cabinets. A little treat for the next renovator.
