5 Benefits of Online Tattoo Designs

Searching for the right tattoo can be an incredibly difficult process. Even when you know what you generally want (such as a tribal tattoo, angel tattoo, butterfly tattoo, etc.), there are usually hundreds of designs to choose from, and it can be difficult to figure out which design is worth the time.

That is why it is highly beneficial to look at online tattoo designs. There are several different benefits that make an online tattoo design a better option than going to any one individual artist.

What are the Benefits of an Online Tattoo Design?

1) When you choose to go with an online tattoo design, you can look through literally thousands of different designs for an extremely low cost. That allows you to go through as many different designs as you want in order to pin down which one is best for you.

2) Because these designs are on the computer, you can shrink and enlarge them at you leisure in order to see what they look like both larger and smaller. Sometimes the best tattoos look awful when they are smaller than the original size, and if you were looking to get a smaller version of a design you liked, this is good to know.

3) Online, you can also look at member galleries in order to see what a tattoo looks like on the body. On skin, it is possible these tattoo designs look worse than they do on paper.

4) When the designs are online, you can print them out and take them with you to your favorite tattoo artist. When the design is at a specific parlor, you cannot choose to take it to a different artist.

5) Online tattoo designs cost far less than individual designs purchased at tattoo parlors. In fact, access to thousands of designs can often be less than 30 dollars, whereas the average individual tattoo can be as much as sixty or seventy. In addition, that access allows you to choose other designs for future tattoos at no extra cost.

As you can see, there are a variety of reasons that using the Internet to find your next design can be extremely beneficial. It is more versatile than going to individual artists, it allows you to ensure that it is the one you want by allowing you to grow it and shrink it at your leisure, and it is less expensive than purchasing an individual tattoo from a single artist, while allowing you access to more than one at no extra cost.

I saw a college student reading the Christian Bible on the bus. Wouldn't it be ironic if he got carsick? I think the church frowns on people vomiting on the New Testament.

What's His Name: Mike Jones?


I was watching MTV Jams, the last remaining MTV channel that actually plays music (They should rename themselves "PGTV" for "Prepubescent Girl Television" rather than MTV, which is misleading). I don't get an opportunity to listen to music anymore, since most of my television time is spent on the Daily Show, the Colbert Report, and other Comedy Central shows. I heard a song called "Mr. Jones" by a rapper named "Mike Jones." It wasn't a terrible song. Not a great song but possibly something Ipod worthy. "Mr. Jones" was a song about how he is now rich and a good guy and the ladies love him for it, something like that. The whole background of the song are some kids singing "Mike Jones! Who? Who? Who? Mike Jones. Mike Jones."

Here is the YouTube video of the song.


I wanted to see if maybe "Mike Jones" was becoming "Mr. Jones" because of some life event, similar to the way that Kanye West had that song "Through the Wire" when he was in a car accident and they wired his mouth shut. I looked for his information on Wikipedia and here is what his Wiki bio is (Note: This is his ACTUAL WIKIPEDIA BIOGRAPHY AS OF 2/26/2007):

[emphasis added]

Style and trademarks

Mike Jones has become well-known for his repetition of his own name throughout his songs. Many of his songs contain the phrases "Mike Jones!, Who!, Mike Jones," or "Who is Mike Jones". He is, to date the only rapper alive who has repeated his name in excess of 30 times during a single song and not been shot. Sadly what isn't known by the general public is that he's not kidding when he asks "What's my name?". Mike Jones suffers from short term memory loss and often can't remember his name, and his excessive use of his name reflects that.

His major promotional gimmick is to sell and hand out shirts reading "Property of Mike Jones" on the front and his cell phone number, 281-330-8004, on the back, as well as shouting out his name and cell phone number throughout his mixtapes and albums, encouraging fans to call him on his mobile phone. Although most people get a "Your call cannot be completed as dialed" message nowadays, Jones says (when asked in several interviews) the number still works, it is just extremely busy.

Repetition is not only limited to his name, but any phrase Mike Jones thinks is worth repeating. This violates a cardinal rule of rapping, which is to rhyme one line of words with the following line. Amazingly despite this, largely due to good samples, Jones has managed to sell some albums. He is largely referred to people with ADD because of his inexplicably repetitive style, clearly aimed at basing his entire career around his name.


Dude. What? He is recommended to people with ADD? He has short term memory loss? He is the only person not shot for repeating his own name? What's that crap about the cell phone? He sounds like an idiot. I had to re-read those paragraphs to try to understand why anyone would know that, and how he'd manage to sell albums despite his disorders. I checked for other biographies of him online and found nothing about his memory, or anything negative about him. So I went back to Wikipedia and read the following:


Controversy

Mike Jones has been involved in a high profile disagreement with ex- Swishahouse artist Chamillionaire. While Jones stated that Chamillionaire insulted him out of jealousy for his success, Chamillionaire has accused Jones of slander, and in response devoted an entire disc of his 3-CD mixtape album Mixtape Messiah to insulting him, referring to Jones as "Dyke Jones"[1]. Recently, however, Chamillionaire has contemplated working with Jones again and resolving any disagreement between the two[2].


It seems like the artist "Chamillionaire" may have gathered together a group of people and group-edited Wikipedia to make Mike Jones sound like an idiot. Either that, or it was edited be funny. Still... that's funny. But maybe that's the liberal bias that "Conservapedia" keeps talking about. Maybe Mike Jones is also a Republican donor and the editors of Wikipedia are ganging up on him. Who knows.

Video of a Girl Who Took a Picture Of Herself Every Day for 3 Years


This is not a YouTube video, it's from something called "Atom Films." An artist/filmmaker named Ahree Lee took a picture of herself every day for three years and compiled it all into a video montage. It's trippy. Each second represents about a full week.

Badass YouTube Videos


This is a horse named "Broad Appeal." - You may need to watch it twice.

The consensus is this is real. Some guy beats Super Mario World 3 in 11 minutes.

This is a musician named Jake Shimabukuro, playing a song entitled "While my Guitar gently weeps." Except he plays it with a Ukalele. Watch how fast his hands move.

New Drinking Game: Law and Order


I thought of a new drinking game today. Take a shot every time someone on Law & Order (any series) begins a sentence with "Look,"

The comma is important. The words "looking" and "Look over there" are not the same. For example, if Detective Robert Goran (Vincent D'Onofrio) asks a witness to why he/she didn't do ________. And the person follows up with, "Look, I just didn't want to get involved." That's a shot. You should only need one episode to get completely drunk, so you may want to limit it to a half of a shot.

I think this is cool, because only the Japanese can pull this off. Despite being gothic and rarely smiling, you don't feel that they're depressed underneath all that makeup. They're more like artists with their faces and bodies as their canvas.

Macy's Now has Bottled Water


I couldn't find a picture, so I've posted the DKNY water. Explain to me who goes into Macy's looking for bottled water. How much is it, like 12 dollars a bottle?

Excuse me, sir? Sir? I was wondering, where can I find the Macy's bottled water? Yes, I was wondering where the bottled water was located. Next to the Bath Robes? Thanks.

Naming a Puppy

Also posted on my other site: Librocrat

I was toying with names of what to name another dog if I get one. I was thinking about naming him "Buttface" so that when I call out his name and some random John turns around, I can say "Oh, sorry, not YOU Buttface, I was talking to my DOG Buttface. Or maybe I'd name him "Karl Rover" except I think I'd get the strong urge to chain him to the fence and beat him with a rusty pipe. So that's probably not a good idea.

I'm Thinking About Drawing a Unicorn

And behind the unicorn will be a faded rainbow, with clouds, and light colors. And underneath this unicorn, will be two simple words:
F*CK YOU

Also, I was thinking about drawing little stuffed carebears, similar colors, and underneath the carebears it says "bitch." With the period. It is not the same without the period. And the lower case "b" for cute emphasis.

Today at Target

I rarely shop at Target. It reminds me too much of itself, and since I don't think highly of Target, that can only end in failure.

But today I was looking for a large package of rubber bands, because I am attempting to make a viral video similar to those seen on YouTube that usually involve quarters and a large, large number of outtakes.

Anyway, I'm searching the aisles for rubber bands when I find them in the corner of the office supplies section, right underneath the staples. There is only one package of them on the shelf. Not one package left but only one type of package, and it is a package of rubber bands of varying sizes.

So I ask you, Target, how many people go to the store looking for a package of various sized rubber bands? Do people often say to themselves "You know what? I have a lot of mailing to do, and since all of the packaging is of varying lengths and widths, I need a package of equally varied rubber bands in order to accommodate my needs." No, I don't believe they do.
