You Only Hurt the One You Love- Car Tats
Oh no- Toyopet!
Tattoos, like old Mercedes diesels, last forever. That being the case, it’s a good idea if you’re planning to get inked to make sure the subject matter is something that you could live with for the rest of your life. That seems to have been the case for a bunch of car nuts that have had the objects of their affection impregnated into their skin.
Skin art is very, very popular these days, and it’s not surprising to find that a lot of people going under the needle want to make their tat a homage to a favorite vehicle or driving pass time.
EvilTatoo.com has a whole mess of auto-related tattoos for you to ooh and ah over, a few with the red rash of nascency still showing . Some of them are more clever than others, but they all have one thing in common- their owner’s likelihood of catching hepatitis.

It isn't car related unless you count starring in Road House.

That reminds me, I need to get my full sleeve finished up. I don't think I could ever get anything car related though.
There are a lot of tattoos that I love, but it really seems like an art form poorly suited to the bad pun. Jack Offroaders? I figure he has about three weeks before he regrets that one. Twenty years later it'll hardly seem fresh.
The Swayzetaur (Paticorn?) is just terrifying.
Speaking of tats, I stumbled upon this video just this morning. I would like to officially nominate this guy for Moran of the Year.

The Wagovan is seriously cool.
Naturally, most of the rest just feels like a sad mix of machismo and bad taste, that'll be an even sadder sight when the assorted subjects are 80. The Ram logo overlaying the confederate flag? A natural pairing (bonus points if the person is from North of the Mason-Dixon line). And of course they've got the guy with his Cavalier on his arm (so that when he hits people with his car, he isn't charged with vehicular assault).
This one is rather interesting….

Hahahaha, step on it Heavy Foot.
My tattoo-hating wife says that if you're going to get a tattoo, it should be clever like that. You win the internet.

This is heavier.
….and yet the phrase "plutonium foot" hasn't caught on!
yeah, I had to Google to figure out what it was.
I wonder if it is sadder that I just had to check the periodic table on the back of my office door?
What about that chlorine triflouride stuff? Not as heavy, but way faster…….
Outstanding
Is it just me, or are there now tattoo banner adverts on the side now? Tattoo Lovers, Start Searching Now… actually, why the hell not, Hooniverse needs to get paid.
Jeff's Hooniverse tattoo won't pay for itself!
Also, when are we going to see the first 24 Hours of LeMons tattoo? You know it's coming!
What happens if it gets voted People's Curse? Might be messy and painful.
A driveshaft through skull tattoo may be in my near future. Is that close enough?
I read a great quote about tattoos one time, something along the lines of "why appreciate something temporarily when you can regret it for life!"
…which I thought would make a great tattoo.
