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.

JESUS FUCKING CHRIST!

You know, I’m probably damning myself just for posting this. Larry “Have a sense of humor for Christ’s Sake” Brogan (Tattoo City, Lockport, IL) is probably also damned, and the wearer of this tattoo? Definitely headed for a warmer climate!

    haha i like how david compared this to the slaves being set free in the anger it’s caused…a large majority of the anger behind the US civil war was not about the slaves being set free…it was economical. lemme guess…you’re from the south? they sure teach some lame biased history in US schools

    After all….”…The building is a symbol, as is the act of destroying it. Symbols are given power by people. Alone, a symbol is meaningless, but with enough people, blowing up a building can change the world. ” – to quote V.
    And go ahead, replace building with “icon” or…christ or buddha or anything really.

    #84, rori, perhaps you learned that neo-liberal history of slavery, because the Civil War was about slavery AND economics… slavery was the basis of the entire national economic and social system. And perhaps you only read history from a certain point of view, because for slaves and free blacks, the civil war was most certainly about slavery… though those historical actors aren’t important are they… racism. All history is lame and biased, even the neo-liberal version you believe, because it privileges certain narratives and points of view and marginalized or erases the experiences of poeple such as blacks and slaves.
    Anyway, I don’t think David even mentioned the Civil War, and EMANCIPATION definitely made the south and people in the south upset, and people in the north as well… do you think anyone in the nation wanted black people to be able to compete freely with whites, or advocated social equality? Yeah, maybe Garrison, but that’s an exception. Sharecropping and tenancy? Black Codes? Lynching? Disenfranchisement? know anything about that history, rori? yeah…. David’s point is well taken.

    4- I’m sure this tattoo had a lot more to do with this persons sense of humor than their mother and their childhood. As I’ve bitched about before, STOP blaming people’s mods on their childhood. Thanks!

    Considering how often that phrase pops out of my mouth, I love the tattoo. I didn’t even notice his hands being nailed down until someone pointed it out… it’s the little things that make a piece interesting.

    Uh yeah, and re: random bitching
    – Some of us simply find blasphemy funny, it has nothing to do with a bad childhood.
    – Saying the Civil War was about slavery is like saying Darwin’s ‘Origin of Species’ was about survival of the fittest…. of course a lot of people seem to be under that impression too…. I give up.

    34- Is it just not the same because it offended you?

    84- You even said yourself “a large majority of the anger” meaning some of it WAS because of the freeing of the slaves, just not all. Then you go further to imply that he must be from the south, and if that was true, wouldn’t he best know the reasons behind the south’s anger?
