If you’re good, you see the Virgin Mary. If you’re bad, I’m guessing you see a pierced vulva. I’m just guessing of course because I fall on the good side of the equation. Well, I’m going to go pray for the soul of Mark Fabry at Zebra Tattooz in Streetsboro, Ohio now.

Wasps in a tube (Snakes on a plane?)
I have to share the story that came with this:
"It's hard to come up with new and different ideas without ending up in the hospital."
"Here I am with two wasps crawling around on my cock. They refused to sting me until I ran around and rolled over on the ground flopping my cock around and on top of them and then they both stung me. My cock swelled up and itched like mad for two days!"
Oh, BME/HARD, I love you so.

No modblog today, but…
Those of you with experience editing wikis, we’re converting the BME encyclopedia to that interface. It’s not going to be public access for now (the editing), so I really really need editors — click here for more information on how to sign up.
The “I don’t want to grow up” classic Nintendo controller tattoo here is by Pugzley at Black Cat Tattoo in Austin, TX. Sorry I couldn’t post more today, but I need to focus on this other work tonight. I will post tomorrow though!

Great abstract colour sleeve
I just love this sleeve of abstract Japanese forms (“one arm down, one to go”). The work is by Watson Atkinson at 13 Roses in Atlanta, Georgia. Normally when I post photos here I clean them up, fix the saturation, and so on, but in this case I’m presenting it as is, because I wanted to show just what a cool looking tattoo it is without you wondering whether maybe it was my editing that did it.
Hey, at least it was free
Never say tattoo artists (and clients) don’t have a sense of humor. It’s not uncommon for a shop to have a joke tattoo that anyone can get for free… When I worked at Stainless Studios, it was a really cheesy “eye heart boobs” design. At Metro Tattoo in Tucson, Arizona, they have a tattoo of the month.
I’m not sure that I’m going to be getting an appointment with Allen Hoeflinger any time soon to get my own cartoon monkey jerking off in tattoo form, but this dude seems thrilled with both the tattoo and the price… you can’t beat free, right?
KISS tongue tattoo
This tongue tattoo is by Alex at Studio Enigma in Queens, Howard Beach. At first I just assumed it was a gimmick, because it says “kiss” and it’s on a tongue, but now that I think of it a bit more, since she’s also got “Poison” tattooed on her lower lip (wait for the BME update later in the week to see that), I’m thinking maybe it’s music inspired?
(Oh, and yes, this will almost certainly fall out fairly quickly).
