Cool tats, I like the concept of ripped flesh showing what’s underneath.

I didn’t know transformers had green circuit boards…

@Paul: I was wondering the same thing. This, from Kevin:

Okay, this just shows that my mind is always on “geek mode”. I erroneously cited Garth Ennis as one of the artists of my tats when in reality, he is, as we know, the writer of Preacher. My mind works in weird ways. The artist’s last name is actually Hixon. Credit Paul (in the comments) for noticing my weird mental lapse. :P

Nope, not the comic book writer. I just realized that I made an error in “Garth” association (thank you, Paul) – his name’s actually Garth Hixon (thank you, Google). Not quite sure how my mind made THAT particular leap. Oops.

I don’t believe he still works at Magic Touch Tattoos, but I know he still works in MI according to my sister.

I didn’t know that “hella” had spread from California to Michigan and New Jersey.

That’s hella awful, and I’m hella glad that I don’t have cable, or else I’d see hella kids on The Real World talking about how they’re hella crunked up and stuff.

/23-going-on-80 cantankerousness. (By the way, looking up “cantankerousness” to confirm that it is, indeed, a word, crashes Mozilla twice. The More You Know.)
