'SPLAINY?
I really naively assumed that when I got a super-visible tattoo, more people would ask me about it or at least ask what the latin meant. So I've only gotten to use the above "joke" (term used very loosely here) on one or two occasions AND NO-ONE HAS CALLED ME ON IT. (With, perhaps the exception of my friend and ex-colleague Yoyo, who is very heavily tattooed and is indeed an artist herself: she gave me a "yeah, right" look.) I asked for Mr Lamb's thoughts on this and they were interesting - he said that no-one with any manners would laugh at/make a sarcastic comment about/mock another person's tattoo due to it's permanent nature. It's not like, say, "Gene Simmons called - he wants his boots back". (Nice one.) The recidivist vandal in me can't help but wonder what would happen if I did get "THUG LIFE" or similar on a shoulder or forearm. But that's just my contary Mary lizard brain at work. Oh and if you're from Priceline, I was TOTALLY going to pay for that lipstick.
