• We Salute You

  Posted on Monday October 20th, 2008 at 23:52 in lettering, poorly executed

  One of the funny things about having lots of visible tattoos, is that suddenly, you are the sounding board for tattoo ideas. Strangers constantly tell me about tattoos they want to get... or thought about once... or they know a guy who has something ...

• Mom keeps giving me turtlenecks.

  Posted on Tuesday October 7th, 2008 at 23:39 in spelling bee, lettering

  I used to be in a band with Matt. We did grindcore versions of Neil Diamond songs (we were called "I am I Said"...the world was not ready for us) Matt always modified words incorrectly...passing a joint to the right was "traditionary" and doing some...

• Whirled Peas

  Posted on Thursday September 25th, 2008 at 19:53 in spelling bee, lettering, corny cliches

  This tattoo is on my cousin's ex, Brandon, although he wants us to call him "Shroomz."He is one of those hippie asshole types, a vegan in leather shoes.He spends most of his time preaching these bizarre hippie rants about all the death and suffering...

• Tommy Used to Work on the Dock

  Posted on Tuesday September 23rd, 2008 at 21:06 in lettering, put your shirt on, poorly executed, my other brother darrell

  Oh...wow.Let us start with the obvious problem with these tattoos.Alignment.His back looks like some mulletty Camaro, all covered in bumper stickers. Some are slanting up, some down. Some look like total afterthoughts, which he then had to squeeze...

• Last Place in the Aryan Race

  Posted on Saturday September 20th, 2008 at 21:47 in lettering, bad idea

  This is Marlon. AKA #107-946.He is looking for a nice woman, to share the finer things in life, like letters to one another, and rape-y conjugal visits. He sure loves Hitler, but his heart has room for one more. He is an avid lepidopterist, who also ...

• She Loves Me Not---She Loves Me

  Posted on Thursday September 18th, 2008 at 16:56 in hearts, lettering

  Here we have the tattoos of a woman who will steal your last dollar from your wallet, while you sleep it off, but she won't use that dollar to buy formula for the baby...she will buy herself one of those fancy coffee drinks from that College-boy coff...

• Romper Room Stomper

  Posted on Monday September 15th, 2008 at 18:52 in lettering

  We are going to ignore the schwag on his skinny arms, and focus on his melon."I'll Kill You."Is this a cry for help? Or is it the ultimate open-ended threat?(It would be one thing if it said " I'll Kill You" followed by "If You Make Me Mad"...or "S...

• Which one?

  Posted on Sunday September 14th, 2008 at 20:08 in lettering

  This is another finely crafted, and skillfully applied tattoo that is only herebecause it is a dumb tattoo, and dumb tattoo= bad tattoo.I can only assume he means the president of the USA,and not the president of Dartmouth (James Wright, for thos...

• Then Everyone Would be in Love with Me

  Posted on Sunday September 14th, 2008 at 16:33 in spelling bee, lettering

  This is one of those self-deprecating tattoos that is sure to backfire, eventually.One hopes that he is trying to be clever, and really has an "average" schlong,but someone is going to call that bluff someday,and this guy is going to hear those3 litt...

• Round Here

  Posted on Friday September 12th, 2008 at 19:20 in inexplicable, lettering

  I am pretty sure that is supposed to be Adam Duritz. "Why" you might be axskin?? The only logical conclusion, is that he lost a bet.Extra deduction for the "Straight Edge"... WTF is it with straight edgers, that they feel the need to get it tattooed ...

• My keyboard doesn't have an "ANY" key...

  Posted on Thursday September 11th, 2008 at 15:36 in lettering, bad idea, put your shirt on

  "Oh wow man, is that the Microsoft blue screen of death text? OH man, it looks just like myscreen."Is he gone?His tattoo sucks.That doesn't sit well there. If you HAD to get this, why on the inner arm?Why not on part of you that looks vaguely "screen...

• NO DOUBT about it

  Posted on Tuesday September 9th, 2008 at 17:50 in lettering, bad idea

  I will concede that the artist who applied this tattoo does reasonably good portrait work.But, come on...a "No Doubt" 3/4 backpiece? No.And the Gwen "I'm busta cap in yo ass" pose?Someone should have talked him/her out of this tattoo.Extra deductio...

• Location, Location, Location

  Posted on Tuesday September 9th, 2008 at 13:18 in lettering

  Although she has several tattoos, we are going to focus on the dingleberry one.It appears to be some lettering, probably some clever porn starry wisdom. Maybe a roster of initiates.I can't see it, and my wife will get mad if she catches me looking ...

• Just PLANE Stupid

  Posted on Monday September 8th, 2008 at 22:20 in stupid, lettering

  Absolutely not.Totally unacceptable.Extra deduction for the fact that "Snakes on a Plane" was a really shitty movie. Probably.I only watched about 20 minutes of it.What this tattoo says about the wearer:I am a big loser.I couldn't get laid in a nicke...

• I would like to buy a vowel

  Posted on Monday September 8th, 2008 at 21:57 in spelling bee, lettering

  Yes, I am sure you are...but your tattoo artist sucks.Extra Huge Deduction for taking off shirt to allow this photo to be taken.Surely one of his friends has noticed...What this tattoo says about the wearer:I will be happily working at WAL-MART fore...

• Always after Me LUCKY Charms

  Posted on Monday September 8th, 2008 at 19:39 in lettering, put your shirt on

  Yes, Lucky You.As lucky as the last few hundred guys.Like striking gold. Well, more like finding a nickel.She has seen more dicks than a urinal.I wonder if the pink around the lettering is supposed to blend in with the stretch marks?Or accentuate ...
