Mike, who plays guitar for The Seventh Gate and Call The Paramedics says of his Nazi unicorn tattoo by Painless J at Marlowe Ink in Fairfax, Virginia, “only the whites get angry, hah… funny how that works?”
Continue reading for his other, equally questionable tattoos.
The piece above (also by Painless J) is brilliant I think… The piece below? Not so sure… last time I posted gender bending shit eating on BME it didn’t go so well.
Both of these transsexual pieces (with apologies to any transsexuals reading this) were done by Eric Doyle of Jinx Proof Tattoo in Washington DC. I’m sure he’s thrilled to be credited, haha…
Edit/Update: Thanks to cuntcumber for reminding me I needed to include Mike’s knee tattoo as well:

Hats off the the guy for the best lulz of the dya. Boo to those BAWWWING bleeding hearts who are tough on lulz, and the causes of lulz.

Mike, pardon me if I’m speaking too much for you. He’s just an asshole (not in a bad way), and he obviously got exactly what he wanted out of the tattoo: to piss people off for, basically, no reason.

Has anyone noticed that the ‘t’ in the word ‘white’ in the first tattoo, looks a little like a funky pound sign ‘£’?

Katie:
Are you referring to the post-structuralist postmodern, or the neoconservative postmodern? They both ended up with much the same result, although the post-structuralist ideal worked out better than the neo-conservative. (Irony: the neo-con movement of the time wanted to return to classical ideals in painting, namely realism and figuration, but ended up creating a new movement, because they deprived the images of context.)
Post-modernism as we currently understand it mixes various themes/styles, usually decontextualizing the elements that are mixed, and are often tinged with irony.
I like to think that, since I’m working on a BFA right now, that I have a least a *little* idea of what some of the major art movements of the 20th century were/are… 😛

at first i started to get confused because i asked myself, “why the hell would a hardcore racist put a unicorn of all things,” but then it clicked on several different levels and i giggled to contentment:)
one of lines- of- thought that crossed my mind was what if some jackass really thought this was hardcore and got a unicorn tattooed on him, then i thought about the power rangers and started laughing again.

Nazis sind die ewig gestrigen und dümmsten Wesen auf dieser Welt.
Und Vorsicht auch bei Satire, die kann oft auch falsch verstanden
werden. Ich kann in diesem Fall Satire nur akzeptieren wenn damit
klar gemacht wird wie dumm sie sind und wenn sie damit lächerlich
gemacht werden können.

This reminded of Artie Lange’s Idea of a bumper sticker that is offensive to everyone. “I love niggers”. It is a phrase that is pretty sure to offend anyone from racists (because of the I love part)and non racists (because the n word is a disgusting word.)

What is more immoral than war?
War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.
John Stuart Mill
Judging by your fear of reality, I am sure you don’t know who John Stuart Mill is. He was a writer and poet during the American Civil war. A war during which hundreds of thousands of Americans gave their lives to fight slavery, an institution I would argue is more immoral than war. But I bet your ugly ass wouldn’t grasp that based on that white power crap you have tatooed on it. I hope you die of hepatitis soon. (but not so soon that you don’t go through the requisite amount of suffering.)

By the way, there is no valid interpretation for meaningless stupidity. I should back off however, you are the one stuck with that on your skin for the rest of your life.

Am I the only one to think that a white power tattoo CAN’T be “cool”? I am quite shocked at that posting, not to mention the number of mindless comments on how funky the whole thing is.
