Tattoo Link Roundup - October 9, 2008
In addition to our original content, we at Inked Talk scour the news media for interesting articles and viewpoints on tattoos to comment on and share with our readers. The media is full of talk about tattoos these days, and while not every article or viewpoint merits its own post here at Inked Talk, there are always great articles and websites out there that deserve at least a mention. So once again, it’s time for the Inked Talk weekly roundup of tattoo links. Take a break from your work, grab a cup of coffee, and enjoy!
An anti-tattoo Letter to the Editor at the Daily News Record opines that people who choose to get neck tattoos “are either convicted of a felony or are doing something to get convicted of a felony.” Obviously, that comment didn’t sit well with a few people , as it prompted a number of interesting comments as well as not one, not two, but three follow-up letters. I noted that the paper’s Letters to the Editor on issues like the economic bailout plan didn’t even provoke that much of a response.
Everyone has to comment on whether tattoos are becoming mainstream enough to be accepted at the workplace. This week’s entry come from WSJ.com.
The Omaha World-Herald has a nice piece on rib cage tattoos. The picture associated with the story is great - probably more script than I’ve ever seen on one tattoo, but it looks great.
A tattooed Suicide Girl, Zui, is in the cast of a new reality show called “Paris Hilton’s My New BFF.”
Creative Loafing has a nice article about the statistics on tattoo regret. Well, the question posed is on tattoo regret. The response is a nice historical perspective on tattoos that doesn’t answer the question, but the writer actually makes the whole thing a nice read.
