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.

“First Class White Trash” tattoo

Is it good to be first class white trash? Is that better or worse than second class white trash? Now, I’m a first glass Canadian hillbilly, but I don’t have it tattooed on my slightly rounder gut. But I do buy all my clothes at Canadian Tire if that counts for anything?

    The idea of dividing white trash-i-ness into different levels reminds me of the sub-levels Dante put into hell. Is that strange?

    I mean, once you’re in it (either hell or wite trahsiness), what’s a little jump up or down? How much difference does it REALLY make? Ponder these things.

    Wow. WHY?!?!?

    I don’t know…Possibly because it looks like the belly hair equivelant of a 14 year old with a fluffy moustache.

    ^^^ God I hate that look… Just shave and wait until you’ve successfully completed puberty before trying out any facial hair…. Please!

    Was the ‘first glass’ a (Freudian) typo or was it intended? Heh

    Uhh, is Coleman’s Mustard hot or something?

    Running in-joke with a few friends; we convinced a guy that liberal application of mustard helps with beard growth.

    Hehehe, gotcha. By the way, assuming that’s you in those pics, I thought you looked better in the one on the left. 😉

    It is and the one on the left was taken about 3 minutes after the one on the right.

    At the moment I’m about halfway between the two…
