Remember the Guy with the Romney Tattoo?
Eric Hartsburg -- who was paid $15,000 to get a five inch Romney campaign tattoo on his face -- now tells Politico he's "totally disappointed, man. I'm the guy who has egg all over his face, but instead of egg, it's a big Romney/Ryan tattoo. It's there for life."
But he added, "I'm hoping this opens some other doors in the entertainment business."

That young lad is a marked man. How humiliating! If the idiocy fits, wear it!
Shared on Facebook - and I said "THINK before you ink!" And then, added this, one of the comments below the story in the link above.
Another tattoo victim who lived to tell the tale:
"My ex-wife was a buxum lass, and insisted on a pegasus tattoo on her left breast. I tried to dissuade her, pointing out that age would change the appearance of the character. It was to no avail. Now in her later years she sports a tattoo that looks like a giraffe with wings."

Good luck with that. Maybe you shouldn't have gotten that brain piercing.

There are now ways to remove tats with lasers. Will probably cost the same as the $15,000 he got to put it on there.

He thinks it says, "I hate America and fuck virgins."
You're stuck with that one, asshole. Even laser surgery won't be able to remove that abomination (EVEN unto GOD).
On the plus side, some tattoo artist made a SHITLOAD off of that idiot. That's good. That's very good.
