Any idiot can tattoo a jonson on his flesh. It takes committment to give your tattoo silicon implants. posted by goodnewsfortheinsane at 9:58 AM on December 26, 2007
There was a New Yorker cartoon a while back called "The subtext of every tattoo," and it was a tattoo that read "Ask me about my parent's divorce."
This tattoo has an entirely different subtext. To me, it says "I'm the kind of guy who thinks I'm cool because the girls at the strip club know my name." posted by Astro Zombie at 9:59 AM on December 26, 2007 [24 favorites has favorites]

Huh. I thought that implants were on the way out... that even the gomers were going for big naturals these days. posted by psmealey at 10:20 AM on December 26, 2007
Word at the hospital was that the new patient had his name "Joe" tattooed on his dick. The nurses were having a good laugh at this until one day a nurse who was attending Joe came into the break room with her eyes wide. The other nurses asked her what had happened. She said, "I was giving Joe a sponge bath when he became excited and started to enlarge."
"So what's the big deal?"

If i saw this guy, i would just think he had a couple of huge cysts on his leg, and instead of getting them removed, decided to get a tattoo to excentuate them. posted by TechnoLustLuddite at 10:27 AM on December 26, 2007 [7 favorites has favorites]

I wanna get something like this in braille accross my chest which says: If you are reading this, I got you to run your hands across my naked body. Ha Ha, I win.
I mean, if you are going to go with tiny silicone implants, at least make them useful. posted by quin at 10:35 AM on December 26, 2007 [1 favorite has favorites]
This guy reminds me of the guys decked out head to foot in sports logo team outfits. They might think they are attracting women, but really, they are attracting other guys. Guys who want to fondle your leg. Ew. posted by 45moore45 at 10:37 AM on December 26, 2007
Big, hairy deal. I can't figure out if this woman has no feet, or just one big one. posted by weapons-grade pandemonium at 10:37 AM on December 26, 2007
All right, thanatogenous, that's actually a great tattoo. posted by Astro Zombie at 10:45 AM on December 26, 2007
The musical notes flying from the guitar are missing, though. WTF.
The bad tattoo story I will never get tired of telling: dude has a pair of dice, one showing a six, the other die showing a one. Underneath in gothic script:
This is pretty ridiculous, but even moreso because the tattoo in question isn't that good. It looks like bad comic book style. The silicon doesn't help. I thought these modern tattoo aficionados were primarily punk and post-punk. What's up with the '80s-style rocker tat on a guy with gauges?
I wonder how it feels to run your hand over that guy's leg. I have a condition that gives me lumps on my shins every now and then and I hate running my hands over my own legs and feeling that bump. To do that to yourself on purpose? Ick.
But I do not pretend to understand what drives most body modders. posted by cmgonzalez at 11:10 AM on December 26, 2007
Big, hairy deal. I can't figure out if this woman has no feet, or just one big one.
It reminds me of a conversation I had with a friend about the most manly tattoo ever: It's a bald eagle, smoking a cigar and wearing an eyepatch, in one talon it's holding an American flag, and in the other it's carrying a dead pig which is bleeding into the smokestacks of a battleship. The cannons of the battleship are all firing and it's dropping it's anchor, and a pennant across the chain says "Mom".
And lest we forgot anything, we concluded with the caveat: "And it would have guns, and jets, and half naked chicks drinking booze."
This would be all tattooed onto your chest, naturally. Unfortunately, thus far, we have not seen anyone take us up on this concept. posted by quin at 11:14 AM on December 26, 2007 [3 favorites has favorites]
I can't wait to get my next tattoo of a super awesome Viking riding a sun glasses-wearing unicorn across a rainbow bridge while playing a fucking sweet electric guitar. That will really show people I mean business. posted by baphomet at 11:14 AM on December 26, 2007

my only complaint about the bowser tatoo, is that bowser wasnt even in SMB:2 in the US.
Unless they were talking about the Japanese version... But then the final iteration looks more like bowser from Mario64...
Judging from the pic, those aren't implants, but injections, similar to what's used in lip-augmentation for women (Safe for work). Still a costly proceedure to consider, when this guy could've bought himself a Steve-O t-shirt. posted by Smart Dalek at 11:56 AM on December 26, 2007

I believe that was the intent. A little fan service for the nerdlingers in the audience, a little soupcon of advanced-math Nintendory to top it all off. posted by cortex at 11:57 AM on December 26, 2007

Nope, they're carved silicone.
Injected silicone does horrible things to the body and collagen would just be reabsorbed after a while. posted by mikesch at 12:08 PM on December 26, 2007

I'm not sure if Kirth Gerson's doctor-snapping-penis-tattoo-pic if being disciplined for violating someone's privacy or more for that he reached into his pocket and pulled out a camera without taking off their gloves first, and not scrubbing up again before going back to working on the patient, or both... posted by porpoise at 5:57 PM on December 26, 2007
Holy shit, that vulva tattoo is, erm, really something.
In case it isn't obvious, NSFW. posted by jokeefe at 6:56 PM on December 26, 2007
Bah. If he were really hardcore, he'd have a couple of hundred of these implanted all over his body, so he'd be all rubber-mat lumpy. And then tattoo a nipple on each one, and put a piercing through the tattooed nipples. And then suspend himself from the ceiling and whistle dixie out his ass, and call it art.
Bad taste is bad taste, I don't get the need to hold it up for extra ridicule because it's something done to the body. The permanence is a factor, yes, but in this case, implants aren't permanent by necessity most of the time. They can be removed.
And the link miss lynnster had gave a large number of tattoos that hardly qualify as worst. Strangest, perhaps, but come on. A guy with a small, unobtrusive windows logo as a tattoo makes your list of top 20 worst tattoos? The whole thing seems more like "first 20 tattoos we found while googling that we thought were funny". posted by Arturus at 7:19 AM on December 27, 2007

He's going to have a problem, because those things are going to shift. With real boobs there is a skin pocket/muscle (depends where you put it) that sort of holds the implant in place. I'm pretty sure there is not a conveniently placed skin pocket right where those tattooed boobs are. And those things are going to roam.
