We can be certain that 100% of the people pictured were drunk when they got the tattoos. At least I hope so. If people decide to get VAGINAS tattoos while sober... oh dear. posted by The corpse in the library at 11:31 AM on May 31, 2007
I was thinking "so what" too, and "ew", and then I got to "I Love Cock", which made me stop and think. posted by imperium at 11:32 AM on May 31, 2007

Why? Really, why? You might as well get the webbing between your toes tattooed. posted by ekstasis23 at 11:34 AM on May 31, 2007
The culmulative effect of that was pretty disgusting. posted by dydecker at 11:34 AM on May 31, 2007
As someone with a lip piercing, I resent being lumped in with such morons when it comes to "body modification." If my extended family gets a whiff of this, next thing I know when I call home it's going to be "Don't you go getting an inner lip tattoo! Please, for me, DON'T DO IT."
(Not that this tactic worked for shaving my head, piercing my eyebrow, piercing my lip, shaving my head again, tattoo #1 or tattoo #2. It did, however, making my parents feel better about my NOT piercing my tongue, which I never had any intention of doing in the first place.)
Also, when is anyone going to see your INNER LIP TATTOO unless you are pulling out your lip to make a ridiculous face in the manner photographed on this site. I do not understand. posted by grapefruitmoon at 11:37 AM on May 31, 2007
maybe it's to enetrtain and educate oral parasites. posted by jonmc at 11:39 AM on May 31, 2007 [3 favorites]

And here I was wondering why someone would be sooooo into Lovage, and then I thought maybe they meant this Lovage. Personally, I like this Lovage best. posted by luminous phenomena at 1:35 PM on May 31, 2007
The 'Please?' one is kind of clever--especially so if it becomes visible when the bearer makes a sad face :-( posted by oats at 1:49 PM on May 31, 2007
I heard that these go away after a while. Anyone know if this is true? posted by redteam at 1:56 PM on May 31, 2007

redteam: yes, they go away pretty quickly. A friend had "Anarchy" tatooed on his lower lip, and it was illegible within 5 years or so.
He did it because he was told it was illegal to tattoo someone above the neck, so of course he had to have one. posted by InfidelZombie at 2:32 PM on May 31, 2007
My favorite is the one that says "MATH."

Yeah these fade pretty quickly, as do tattoos on the palms of the hands, and many foot tattoos. posted by nerdcore at 4:38 PM on May 31, 2007
Back in the early 1970's, I used to go to a club called 'Wigan Casino' which was famous for it's all-nighters, driven by dance music and amphetamines.
There was a guy who used to go there, who had the word 'Riker' tattooed on his forehead. I'm pretty sure that it was a hand-made tattoo in the jailhouse style. Riker were a pharmaceuticals manufacturer who made Durophet and Durophet M (Black Bombers), the strongest and most highly prized of the amphetamines.
I always used to wonder what on earth possessed him to have that tattoo done. What was he going to tell potential employers? Or any future children? The guy might as well have had 'Moron' tattooed on his forehead. posted by PeterMcDermott at 7:02 PM on May 31, 2007
A guy once introduced himself to me by showing off his "I EAT PUSSY" lip tattoo. He was dating a good friend's ex-wife, and I think he was trying to explain why she liked him better than my friend.
Totally surreal experience.
Also, whoever does inner lip tattoos in Southern Oregon does a much better job than the artists that did most of the linked ones. His was actually kind of nice... (in comparison). posted by togdon at 7:45 PM on May 31, 2007
