This Terrible Affliction

By Jordan Ginsberg • Jul 14th, 2009 • Category: ModBlog


Look, I’m not going to pretend I know what’s going through the mind of someone when they decide to get a tattoo that combines Mario Brothers monsters with the worst toilet in Scotland (courtesy of Trainspotting), but whatever it is, I am so, so glad it’s there.

“I have a customer who loves ridiculous tattoos,” says the artist, Kelly Doty at Turnpike Tattoo in Meriden, Connecticut, “which is great, because I love doing ridiculous tattoos.” She calls this one, strangely enough, “the majestic venus poop trap, found in its natural habitat.” Keep it up.

Oh hey, Video Games!

In their ongoing campaign to thoroughly dominate the literate gamer community, the good folks at Kotaku have been compiling readers’ game-related tattoos, with some pretty fabulous results, like the above. I’m just saying, if you can’t get on board with a Mega Man/Looney Tunes mash-up, you have no soul. OK, maybe a little one.

In other video game tattoo news, you may have seen the following NHL 2K9 commercial in which a local idiot gets the moves for the game tattooed on his forearm, only to have the artist … oh, just watch it yourself. It is exactly as entertaining as you would expect a tattoo-related hockey video game commercial to be.
