Me either (I think) and I have lots of disks marked by Sharpies. 
There's one disk that I know of that looks like it might have gotten wet 
and bled.  But that was just ink spreading across the surface.  Or maybe 
I smudged it myself in the 5 seconds before it dries.

I always buy inkjet printable CDs and DVDs and often simply scrawl on 
the face with a Sharpie.  The printable layer on the CDs should provide 
a bit more protection for the data layer then a clear-top CD-R would. 
(That's a bit of a guess.)  DVD+/-R are sturdier in that the data layer 
is in the middle of the plastic sandwich rather then right underneath 
the label (as with CD-R).  So there's less worry with DVD+/-R discs.

(Plus, I feel the build quality tends to be higher on the inkjet 
printable media.)
