But I once sat on the bus next to a guy with the weirdest loving tattoo. It was a rooster with a giant cock, jerking itself off. Huge tattoo across his forearm.
I always wondered how truly hosed one's life would have to be to think that permanently affixing that on your arm where anybody could see it would be a good idea.

There's a guy in my neighborhood who has rear end in a top hat in big lovely letters from his wrist to elbow on one arm. He's pretty young and is missing a bunch of teeth, so I'm guessing drugs and/or poverty. But mostly drugs.

That reminds me of a guy I saw once with "WHITE" on one arm and "PRIDE" on the other.

Aesop Rock. I saw an interview with him a while ago. He was asked about the tattoos and seemed a bit embarrassed by them.

It's from a Henry Rollins anecdote about mis-translations. 'Be drinkable' was posted over a drinking fountain.

Why it had to be written over a rainbow bruise, I don't know.

It's amazing how much work he had to go through. Plus it looks like the laser removed his eyebrow where the arrow tat was.

Is there another documentary where he gets his hair fixed as well?

This one isn't bad, though? It's not a spectacle of tattoo artistry, but it's really not bad. The proportions look right (given that it's a lion-man thing), the shading in the hair is fine, and the highlights are well applied for dark skin. Unless I'm missing some awful reference, I don't get why that's in here.

Worst thing I can really say is that it looks like a pen drawing I might have done in college.



Searched for "The Amazing Race" tattoo. Surprisingly not too many terrible ones.

This reminds me of the opening line in the song "All I Can Do Is Write About It" by Lynyrd Skynyrd" - "This life that I live, it's taken me everywhere, there ain't no place I ain't never gone." Great song, terrible grammar.

Supposed to be the tragedy and comedy masks, but they remind me less of masks and more of like clay tiki mug souvenirs.

Also it's just so....giant. And that vomit green is a really horrible choice.

The colors are hideous, but it doesn't even come close to the bottom of the mask barrel. I also have a tattoo with the comedy and tragedy masks, but mine doesn't look like poo poo (I think.)

Well that's my story.
This is (was) tattooed on a guy named "ASAP Yams" who managed the hip hop group the "ASAP Mob". Apparently he died a month or two ago of xanax/oxycontin combo related respiratory failure.
