Morgan had Chris Lyon at Deep Roots in Seattle, Washington tattoo this burger joint. She writes, “this is the sign of a burger joint in my hometown that was practically my second home.” What a reversal of fortunes that she is now home to it! Hot diggity dog, come in and ketch up!

If your going to court bad taste go the whole way and turn yourself into a hotdog joint.
I must say I do rather like it, dunno why it makes me 🙂
Maggi – No offence but I was discussing the cultural significance of Jim Ward in populist culture over 16 years back so you wont mind if I don’t take your post too seriously.

I love it, though I also love hot dogs. It’s a tattoo that the person for years to come will enjoy and remember the good times there.

MistahG ! And you have the balls to take a dump on the hot dog tattoo. Where in the hell do you come from (not literally)? Your stuff is boring and banal. Nothing special there at all. And tribal??? Wow.

I think some people here need to travel further than their local hot-dog stand for some real world experience.

Very valid point.

David – Oh David, where do I start. Actually I can’t be bothered. If you believe this is a quality tattoo then go ahead. If (like me) you feel the glorification of fast food joints through body art is crass, demeaning and ultimately ridiculous then by all means please do also.
Arguing with youngsters on internet blogs about bodmod is usually unfulfilling so you wont mind if I stick to the adult discussions eleswhere and leave you to your “WOW it’s just like so good” witicisms.

Tell me oh great Giles23, how old are you? I’m guessing in your mid 20s….am I right? Also, I’m in no defending the tattoo, on the contrary, it’s not my bag at all, however, what’s behind it is as valid and “cool” as any other tattoo I’ve seen. Lastly, considering your first bit say you can’t be bothered, and then you ramble on about bullshit, tells me what a dick you ultimately must be.

David I am 37 and there is nothing ‘behind’ it other than the claim that it was like “a second home”. Nowhere has there been any commentary or narrative to explain how important the place is or why it is held so dear.
The owner of the tat may simply be a hot-dog fan who spent their entire life consuming such cullinary delights. Nobody knows but plenty of people have assumed to the background to this.
Maybe I have been harsh about this but I find the subject matter a crass symbol of western consumerism and the quality of the work quite poor. This (to me) does not represent the best of BME or even quality work.

Actually the restaurant in mention has a much better selection of burgers, grilled-cheese, and milk shakes than they do hot dogs.

I’ve seen better. I’ve seen worse. I sure don’t get the negative reactions to this tattoo though. People get far more bizarre things tattooed on them. At least this is original. Power to the owner.
P.S. I like hot dogs. 🙂

I’m not even about to read past the first few comments, but the first thing I thought when I saw this was “this has got to be one of the coolest tattoos ever!” Not the most beautiful subject or work in the world, but I immediately got the impression that it was meaningful.

Me thinks someone wasn’t held enough as a baby.
I’ve got lots of stuff as goofy as this if not more. Why? No good reason really, just for shits and giggles. The worlds a weird place…
