A mystery solved


While out and about recently I'd noticed that certain folks were under dressed. Under dressed as in, 'it ain't that warm why are you wearing so little?' Then, after a while, it dawned on me. The under dressed were almost all heavily tattooed. What was more important to them, was showing the world their tattoos and not how cold they were.
Personally I'm not keen on tats and my dislike started when David Beckham started several years ago. I can understand the odd, out of the way tattoo, administered when you are young and foolish and probably pissed, but not the heavy all over 'body art' that you'd wish you had never had done when you get to old age.
Spare me all the socio mumbo jumbo about body art over the ages and freedom of expression, it just doesn't look too good. I can only assume that the man above is self employed. YMMV.

  1. I rather like some tattoos. This is hideous. No doubt he has his own reasons for wanting to make himself look like a freak.
    It's interesting how we judge people by appearances. I instantly thought that if he's a freak on the outside he must be a weird person as well, whereas experience tells me that nice people have tattoos too.

    1. Never on a woman. I'm probably an old fart but it looks so unfeminine.
