Tattoo You

OK, I'm actually not opposed to a rad tattoo or anything. I have a special place inside for rad tattoos. Not necessarily all or nothing -- sleeves, neck, back, legs, face, etc. -- but good art. Or, at least, something that could be arguably personally meaningful. Intimate. Think David Cross and his tattoo of Hitler being spanked by Old Testament god and Hitler's tears are watering the crops for the peasants. That, people, is a tattoo!

But, what the fuck is wrong with people who get goddamn Mickey Mouse or Donald Duck on their leg. What are they being paid by Disney (tm) for ad space? They are, what, so in love with a goddamn weak cartoon character that they want it with them forever? What, they identify so much with Donald goddamn Duck that they become Donald Duck.

I actually saw people with both Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck tattoos. I see them every week when I take the girl to gymnastics. They are parents -- from different families. With Disney (tm) fucking tattoos. I see them every week and cannot stop hating on them.

What. The. Fuck?

Tomorrow, I'm going to ask one of 'em what gives. They get a pass if it involves heroin, prostitution, or prison time.
