I got dark scratch looking things on my screen that won't go away. It doesn't like like an entire pixel is effected, it's quite weird, but it's defenently internal? What to do?

You're kind of vague in your description. You state that "it doesn't look like an entire (one) pixel is effected"...What does this mean? That the scratch or blemish is smaller than one pixel?

There are situations during assembly that can cause strange screen blemishes. During manufacture of the actual LCD glass, the environment is as dust-free as they can get it, and any panes that pick up dust get tossed. It's when the self-adhesing backings are installed that a partical of dust can be trapped, causing a strange shadowy blemish that escapes quality control because the screen passes all electronic testing.

There was also someone here a few months back that was watching the shadow of a small bug walking around behind his screen!

Pixel problems, both dead or stuck, are unmistakeable due to their shape.
