Bad Tats

[Ah Pook]

Nope, this is not a picture thread.

I'm interested in tats and tat history. Norman Collins and Bert Grimm are two of my faves. That said, I don't have any.

I have seen some of the sorriest excuses for ink lately.

Saw a guy the other day with an outline on his lower leg. It looked like a drunk 5yo with a Sharpie did the work. I have no idea what it was supposed to be.

Another was a girl walking by. She had an Egyptian eye at the base of her neck and Chinese characters running down the right shoulder blade. The upper sleeve was an incomprehensible mish mash of colors.

Then there are the scratchers. Just because your friend has a tat gun does not mean you should let them work on you.

Typically, tattoos are one of those "get what you paid for" deals.

I imagine youthful judgement and alcohol lead to most of the really bad tattoos you see.

I have a bad tattoo. I wish I could turn it into something cool.

Stupidest thing I had ever seen was back in 1992. Just moved into an apartment building. Walked past an open door, heard Metallica playing inside. One of the guys welcomed me to the complex and said to swing by later and have a beer. I said Ok cool.

Came back an hour later and there were 3 guys getting Sh*t faced and asked if I wanted to play a drinking game. I can only stay for a couple of beers, gota get unpacked. He said cool. Curiosity got the best of me so I asked what the game was???

We drink until the first one passes out. The one that passes out gets a tattoo of the not so sober other two. They had their own tat gun. I said I'll pass!!!!

I came back buy the next day to thank them for the beers about 11 ish a.m. Well, the one passed out was in the can and I hear, you Fuc*ers!!!!! That's Awesome!!!! Assholes!!!!

The other 2 tattooed " I Love Fish-N-Chips " on his forehead!!!!!!!!!! And he liked it!!!! WTF I said. That was their idea of fun. YOU Can't fix STUPID!!!!!!!

I've seen an episode of Lock Up where these two dudes tatted the whites of their eyes. That's got to be right up there...
