If Gaga got a good tattoo of Bowie it wouldn't look right with all her other lovely tattoos.

Bad celebrity tattoos are one of the great mysteries. All I can figure is that they aren't willing to research a good artist or wait on an opening in their schedule, and so they just go with so-and-so from their circle's cousin who can be at their hotel room in an hour with an ounce to get them through the process.

This is basically it. They have the money, but touring performers at least don't have the time or the ability to rearrange their schedule around a busy artist's, so they get somebody who can drop everything and come do a tattoo when they have time.

Yeah about that, some tongue tattoos are gone as soon as the tongue finishes healing. It's just a slab of muscle, it doesn't have the scarring factors that make skin tattoos stay.

Getting a tattoo on your tongue is almost the dumbest thing you can do with a tattoo.

There was actually a pic in the shop WhatsApp group. It's not super dramatic or anything because it's not a fresh wound - he did this months ago and then got it covered by a crap artist, and is now looking at getting it all fixed:



You can guess how it looked when he just did it, though. If you can't spot it, it's next to the eye.

Yeah, that still needs a proper cover-up.

So how loving painful must this be when they accidentally bump into a wall or something?

Depending on how it was installed it could be painful all the drat time, especially if the hack doing the implantation nicked a tendon (seriously, that thing is right on top of the finger tendons). poo poo like this is why I don't trust "body modders", half the time they don't know what they're doing and the other half the time they do but they're doing something stupid anyway.

Tattoos at least have millennia of history behind them showing that when done properly they won't kill you. Getting subdermal implants seems like an easy and fast way to get yourself a nice nasty infection or accidentally cripple yourself.

I wonder if this guy gets numbness/tingling of the fingers if he holds a fist too long. That thing looks thick and the back of the hand isn't actually just a flap of skin. If you do regular heavy lifting, or just look at a skinny old person's hand, you realize pretty quick that the back of the hand is a fairly dense web of surprisingly large arteries and veins. They're big enough hospitals put IVs in them.

I've had IVs in the hand before, and it wasn't a fun experience. There's a reason why they usually put IV in the arm by the elbow, it's because it tends to be easier. I had to get a hand IV because that's what the anesthesiologist wanted for a surgery (it was kidney surgery, so it's not like my arms were in the way).

You'd totally have issues with your hands with something that thick implanted under the top of your hand though, yeah. Go ahead and put your fingers of your left hand on the back of your right where that star is and then wiggle your fingers a bit, there's a lot of moving going on right under the skin.

Why oh why do people do this? The eye is a very sensitive area of your face and putting dye into your sclera doesn't make you look cool, it makes you look like you have an exotic disease, to say nothing of the fact that we have literally no idea what the long term effects are because only a relative handful of people have undergone the procedure and all of them are BME idiots.

They would probably argue that killing the animal at all would be unethical because the animal would prefer to continue living.

If an animal committed suicide that would probably be ok though.

Suicide implies a level of volition that animals can't really apply, according to vegans. If the animal died of like old age it would be okay to eat them though. Personally I don't think ethical veganism is possible though, since vegetables and fruits are harvested under practically slave labor conditions in many parts of the world.

Considering every face tattoo ever means you can't get a normal job anymore I'm guessing there's two kinds of people, ones who just don't have practice tattooing on faces, and scratchers.
