A Stamp of Cool

That is Tommy Lee. And tattoos look cool on him.

They don't look cool on you.

On you, they're pretentious and fake.

Let me tell you what. Indians aren;t cool. They just plain aren't and they should start acceptinng that fact. We can only pretend to be cool. But this breed I'm referring to, is fake and pretentious. It's everything i'm surrounded by and hate.

so, ya back to tattoos. A cupid on your left breast? A dragon on your stupid non-existent bicep? An Om or a Swastik anywhere on your fake self?

Give me a freakin' break. Get a life, and do us all a big favour. I don't know when tattoos went from self-expression or just good ol' decoration to being the ultimate symbol of COOL.

And i'll tell u another finding, yes. It's no great insight i admit but i have to rid my system of this. When someone gets a tattoo, they have this irresistible urge to show it. No one wants to see it, no one cares. But like i knew this idiot in advertising, who would also dress only in black...so he got some stupid worthless tattoo done on the nape of his ugly dark neck. And suddenly, he started wearing his shirts with the the top 3-4 buttons open so he could fling back his shirt on every possible occassion. JUst to show off. How stupid.

My cousin got an incredibly ugly tattoo done after her break-up. It was a black rose, entwined with barbed wire. Cool?

You'd concur it's not. But you'd still show YOUR tattoo around.
