Tatts

Hi everyone! I'm still stuck in band headspace - we are having pork for dinner and I keep making ridiculous comments about porking - so will share with you some Bad Tattoos. All from here.


Is this one of those commemoration tattoos? For the dinosaurs?


Oh, this is artistic - 'creativity. the mind. the adventure.'
Douchebaggery! The tattoo!


This dude totally looks like he's about to accidentally shoot himself in the nuts.


Oh, uncertainty and lust? Yeah, man, I get tha- woah. Look at those freaky grinning fish. What do they represent? I really hope it's the uncertainty.

I have no idea what the fuck this is, but the butt crack sure does add a touch of class.

These are easy to work out, though. These are vegetables.


Back to tricky questions. Is it the music genre? The TV show? The place you are going straight after the tattoo parlour to sober up and cry quietly? Who knows. Maybe it's 'horse' spelt wrong.


For those who are not Harry Potter fans, Expecto Patronum is what you shout before something silver shoots out the end of your wand. Not necessarily a good thing to have tattooed on one's inner thigh.


Is there a section of society where this means something? Fox in top hat saying Spit Out By Your Mouth? Seriously, I'm curious. Kind of scared curious.


Cicadas! Are they mating? Fighting? Sleeping peacefully in each other's arms legs? I am of a romantic bent so I prefer to think the last one, and top cicada is about to whisper something in the ear of bottom cicada which I have just realised is actually his half-shed exoskeleton. Gross.


This chick should hook up with Mr. Wangshooter up top. Seems like they might get on.


The photo is really too small here but that is a picture of a buffalo with the line, "My heart's a bitter buffalo." It's a song lyric. Song lyrics are not always good things to tattoo on you, no matter how meaningful they are, because taken out of context they're, um, out of context.


See? It's misleading. If you didn't know the song you might think this chick (?) was actually raised by wolves. Especially because the first line of the tattoo is so obviously true.

Know what else is classy?

Bible verse tramp stamp!



This is a late addition that Andrea and I were discussing. Specifically, we were discussing how these two nice squidpeople could ever manage to have sex, and how it would have to be 69 (squid-end to squid-end) all the time, poor old things. The intricacies of squidbanging are fascinating, and now you can think about them too! Also, it's a pretty nicely done tattoo.
