I really like that this tattoo came down the pipe just as poet laureate Dan Savage decided on a definition for America’s favorite new dirty sexy sex word, Saddlebacking, in honor of the awful walrus-looking gay-hating purpose-driven pastor of the Saddleback Church, Rick Warren. That is all.

Sigh.
(6 mm. nostrils, microdermals, 16 mm. lip plate, 38 mm. earlobes and 8 mm. flats, at least some which were done by Petr and Tattoo Angel Studio in Moscow, Russia. Oh, and it’s Hack!)

Hey, that’s a pretty good self-portrait, HEHNGHH? Oh wait, never mind, Tomasz fills us in:
The Shrike is designed by Artur Szolc, on the basis of excerpts from the book Hyperion Cantos by Dan Simmons. It’s not based on any other drawings of the creature, and it’s supposed to be as accurate as possible. The head is only the first part of the tattoo. The upper body of the Shrike will cover my whole arm, and Shrike’s four arms will encircle my arm and go all the way up to the shoulder and down the elbow. Its blades shall seem to pierce the skin. Possibly, a thorn-tree background will be added as well to complete a half-sleeve.
Thanks, Tomasz! A closer shot of the tattoo, after the jump.

Look at all those guys with their pants down at a tattoo convention (presumably) in Singapore that Bellboy sent in! One may think this is all fun and games BUT NO, they are all about to be affixed with the stone of shame because they haven’t signed up for the all-new BME News Facebook application! It’s literally as easy as pushing a button to join, and then you’ll have another way to view and share the articles you read here.
Honestly? I was hesitant to join Facebook for a long time and will still reject almost every app request people send me (STOP THROWING SNOWBALLS, DAMN IT), but this is legitimately well designed and a pretty handy tool. Click here to add it to your profile.
Oh what do you know, those guys at the top added it, too! Remove the stone of shame! Attach the stone of triumph!

Oh hey, here is some sexy fun-time! Renowned produce aficionado, Mateo (top right), is up to his old tricks using vegetables and such for reasons other than God intended (adorning sacrifices). This time, he is hanging out with people are going to be his roommates soon, apparently! Convenient that they all enjoy covering their sinful bits with veggies. Another shot of Mateo and a strategically placed gourd, after the jump.
