Sorry to say, friend, but there isn't a good line in that tattoo. Not one.

The real question is whether the dinosaur balloon tattoo is somehow tasteless. Like, what's the dinosaur doing with that baby?

It's been a problem since the 18th century. My theory is that many people are stupid and/or don't understand grammar. Controversial, I know, but I can take the heat.

I remember being a kid in the early 90s (probably 91) and getting pissed off at these rocks that said "the o'hara's" or some similar Irish name with an unnecessary apostrophe, because we had just learned what apostrophes were for. It's been around for a while.

I would assume then those rocks did in fact belong to the O'Haras. Maybe people were just stealing their rocks.

This was the bane of my existance when I worked at a portrait studio and we would help customers make holiday cards to send out. Everyone wanted that loving apostrophe. Like people would come back with cards that had been printed correctly saying it was wrong and they needed to put an apostrophe in, because they didn't want everyone to think they were uneducated

Maybe its because people get so used to writing the singular form of their last name that when an s gets added to the end, it looks wrong? With an apostrophe there's a little bit of separation at least.

Doesn't explain all the "employee's only" signs I see everywhere, but hey.

Are the balloons holding up the crocodile by its eyeballs?

my understanding is tattoo artists give customers several opportunities to proof the design and make them sign the proof to stop from being sued when it inevitably comes to bite them in the rear end. some artists flat out refuse to do them.

I definitely agree that it doesn't look great with just the s on the end, even though I know it's right- kind of like when you write a word over and over so many times it doesn't look like it's spelled properly anymore- and especially so for names that end with a vowel. The Hendersons? That one looks ok. The Martinos? Looks like something's missing. I usually tried to steer folks into writing "With love from the Martino family" in that case but some folks really wanted their pizzeria looking last name

Hahaha I didn't notice that. I assume the tattoo "artist" didn't know how to draw a rose, so he found a design somewhere, traced it, and then traced it over and over again on the tattoo stencil (or whatever it's called. The paper with the drawing they use to put the outline on your body.)

E: the thing on the bottom is missing a comma! :argh:

Like a soldier standing
On two feet I won't
Surrender nor will I
retreat.


What does it matter if metaphorical soldier is on two feet? Well it wouldn't rhyme without it, and that's important so lets break up the verse so the rhymes are randomly scattered through it.
