He’s cute. But I think I have a bit of a problem today.
I really try to live by that whole if you don’t have something nice to say don’t say anything at all thing.
I have nothing nice to say about veganisim. Except…..
I love this tattoo.
Ha. When I was vegan I never ate anything in that tat, just Ritz crackers and peanut butter. ‘Splains why I quit, I suppose.
#49, that’s what I was thinking. From what I understand, most ink isn’t even suitable for vegetarians.
i have no problem with veganism in general; in fact, my mum went vegan after the latest round of creutzfeldt jacobs scares. i *am* a little irritated by the “scene” that correlates somewhat with veganism (not a 100% correlation, mind you, but when i say there’s some association there, you have to admit i’m not making it up)…
…but, redeemingly, veganism also tends to correlate really well with the laaaaaaaankyboy body type i gravitate towards. nummy.
I LOVE this guy’s tatt, it’s totally cool and really nicely done!
And I also LOVE his earlobes, I’m all for asymmetry; after all the human body IS asymmetrical. Kinda like the way I love a wonky smile or a lazy eye, the imperfection highlights the natural beauty.
i love his tattoo so much!!
i remember when i saw just outlines here, on bme. and i fall in love with that. congratulations! you have the best vegan tattoo ever!
ivyann, there are many vegans who listen to folk music, or wear abercrombie, and there are many scene kids who eat at mcdonalds. i dont think the intersection of the two is a majority in either social group.
but HONESTLY, how can you be irritated about that. its SO petty and utimately unimportant
sorry for the off topic comment
to someone who mentioned tattoo ink not being vegan:
it depends on how the artist mixes the ink. there are brands that are vegan-friendly (Stable, i think is one of them), and there are also vegan artists that mix their own ink using only vegan ingredients, using vegetable glycerin as a carrier. the Tattoo Zoo in BC, Canada is a vegan tattoo shop. i think the owner’s wife is sarah kramer, and she wrote How It All Vegan…but anywho, assuming the wearer asked the artist about it, it’s likely that the ink was vegan.
the banana wings make me think of Zelda video games for some reason.
don’t know if you were refering to me there Cindy.
I asked if the ink they used was Vegan.
and that’s wicked… I used to get pierced at Tattoo Zoo in Victoria.
That’s such a great chestpiece! Brilliant.
haawt.
LOVE.
gorgeous.
Shannon, the set of “biggest bodybuilders in the world” can’t really be used to advocate or justify ANY kind of diet. Diet is irrelevant at the top levels — it’s all about the AAS.
OTOH, looking at the “biggest LIFETIME drug-free bodybuilders in the world” can be used to shill for one’s diet of choice, and you’ll find most diets represented. But that’s a group of smaller individuals. Anyone who’s gotten on stage at the Mr. Olympia for at least the last 15 years, for example, is no stranger to the needle.
BTW, I dunno about the “Knockout” title — it doesn’t really look t’me like he’s making a fist.
vegan boys fart lots
veganism is a LIFESTYLE, not just a diet. that’s why we get it tattooed on ourselves.
and in response to 42: I make barely ANY fucking money, and I am still vegan. It’s about your strength as a person, not about how much money you make. it’s about morals, not about fads.
also, want to have a vegan makeout party?
damn son.
Fruit of the loom :3
I wish people would quit hating on vegans. That pisses me off! We’re ONLY out there promoting veganism to change the world for the better! A vegan is not gonna make anything worse! so piss off.. all of you hating people!
I hear Vegans can get married in Ohio…
