AWESOMENESS, BONERS, CENTAURS, and PATRICK SWAYZE!

[Chernabog]

Two nights ago I dreamed I was getting a tattoo. (Not a HOLY SHEEYIT WTF WERE THEY THINKING tattoo like EH1812 posted). Hey Matt do you think that the guy who did your tattoo would be good at designing mine if it's Disney-related?

Basically, I want a sleeping beauty castle with Chernabog over it, and "Came to Believe" underneath. I'd have to see it first to know whether I liked it so much to stick it on me permanently.

Most tattoo artists worth their salt would do a preliminary sketch, and it would be a very collaborative experience. It takes an insanely skilled person to free-hand (they're out there) and an insanely brave person to be the recipient of free flowing permanent ink. Though they are out there, too.

What amuses me about the posted tattoo is that someone probably did request exactly that, and the artist probably did show him a sketch, and the person still wanted the tattoo. Can you imagine that discussion?

Dude: I want a rainbow!

Artist: Okay. I can do rainbows.

Dude: But wait, I also want a centaur.

Artist: A rainbow arching over or around a centaur. Got it. No problem.

Dude: A centaur who looks like Patrick Swazye.

Artist: Uh, okay.

Dude: Patrick Swayze in a TUX!

Aritst: Ah.

Dude: And I want him to be standing as though he's hiding an enormous erection (because, in my imagination, The Swayze always has a giant erection), even though as a centaur he'd have horse bits and not manly bits, but whatever. Got all that?

Artist: Yup. That'll be $500. Pay up front. I'll have the sketch ready in an hour.
