Nicasaurusrex writes of her tattoo done at Blue Skin in Camden Town — “I’ll still love this one when I’m 65!” It’s true… old people do like tea, right?

Don’t Panic Foot Script
Neek (who does admit to loving Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy) got this nice script done by Fermin at Tatufrenia in Valencia, Spain. He says, “I have a tendency to get myself worked up; this is a little reminder” (that makes me think of the motivation my stay calm note-to-self tattoo, so I completely relate).
Jack the Ripper Portrait
There’s no denying that this Jack the Ripper tattoo by Tom Brudvik at Let’s Buzz at Bergen, Norway is great work, but I’ll again ask the question: if it’s “socially acceptable” to get tattoos of serial killers, which very clearly represent humanity gone wrong (not that I’m opposed to sociopathy… just saying that’s what it is), why are people opposed to things like tattoos of Hitler and other subjects that push the boundaries of what we find acceptable behavior? Is it a matter of scale? Is generalized bigotry worse than specific torture and killing of women? I wonder… not that torture porn isn’t pop culture these days.
