LOL that reminds me of this one comedian talking about his friends getting tattoos. He said, why dont they just get tattoos across their chests that read "i'm stupid" so that in 50 years when they scream, "Why did i do this?!!!" they can look down at their chests and go, "Oh, yeah, 'I'm stupid.'"
lol...no offense, the tatt issue just reminded me of that guy. He had a hilarious set.
But anyways, Mr. Grass! How could you tarnish yourself with a tattoo? A tatto shouldnt be like all those shirts we see today. Shirts that say stuff like: "Bad to the Bone", "Wild Child," "Keep Staring, I Might Do a Trick." Maybe you dont feel like being "Bad to the Bone" tommorow...so u dont wear the shirt. But ur dealing with a tattoo! It's like wearing ONLY that slogan brand shirt every day!
Do u really want to commit yourself to such a...permanent...statement? I like drawing on my wrists and forearms because its so weird to see your very own art on your very own skin that can stretch, unlike paper. But then after a day, it's gone. It was fun while it lasted, but I know i wouldnt want my art on me forever...
I cant believe someone could ever reach such a level of brazeness.
On the brighter i did see a special on the history of tattoos. Very interesting, with a hint of creepyness. They showed how some (Philippino?) cultures used tattoos to ward off voodoo, and is still practiced today (my dad's coworker told him all about it, as a client of the practice)! They also explored the roots of Japanese full body tattoos! Intense! You couldnt even make out skin, the artwork was so complex.
In conclusion, Senor Grass, do what you want, but...whew, i know you'll never catch me dead at Aunt Bubba's Tattoo Shack any time soon.
