A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

“Uh… taste the rainbow”

I notice that the “TM” symbols are conspicuously missing from jessihippiegirl‘s Skittles portrait and slogan, done by Scotty Stommes at Olde Town Tattoo in St. Cloud, MN.

    I absolutely love it! Tattoos with happy nostalgic themes and rainbow colors are a fetish of mine. If anyone gets a candyland tattoo I will marry them!

    The makers of Skittles (mars candy co.) pays experimenters to conduct painful tests on animals. see MarsCandyKills dot com for more info.

    But it is a nice tat.

    I just thought the last post here was a terrible way to end all these great comments. I’m sorry there are people that do wrong in the world, and that you feel that you have to save said world by posting your animal cruelty plug into my innocent mod-blog. I did not know of these events, nor do I condone them.
    A private message to me would have sufficed.
    I will always love my tattoo, and that’s that!

    P.S.
    there are no yellow ones, because they would fade into my skin, same deal with the trademark. 😉 but thanks for noticing.
