Look at this fucking literary tattoo

THIS IS NOT MY TATTOO. I saw it on Look at this fucking hipster and felt the need to share it with you all.

i saw that the other day too, lol.
it's a nice idea, but poorly executed imo.

really wonky. Lines are all off... I also would have gone with different fonts for each book. Great idea though

Fantastic idea.

Bad, bad, bad tattoo.

I do not understand why people continue to get poorly done tattoos!
It's for forver! Find a good artist!

Most people don't realize they are investing in a poorly inked tattoo when they're getting one.. or they wouldn't get it.

I agree, a wonderful idea but so badly done. I don't see a reason for bad tattoos - they are there for life, you must pay good money for good work.

it makes me sad that whoever this is included brave new world/1984/the fountainhead with the rest of the hipster garbage.

In my humble opinion, the only book that's garbage in that stack is The Fountainhead. While The Perks of Being a Wallflower and Choke may be on another tier, they still have their place. Just sayin'.

And perhaps the hipster got a bad tattoo to be ironic. I at least like the handwriting.

Good idea, bad tattoo.

Agree with everyone else on the "good idea, poorly executed" bit. The last book in the stack looks like a pencil with the tip chopped off. =/ The left side looks like a pencil eraser to me.

yikes.

I don't have my literary tattoo yet but sometimes I have nightmares that it will end up lol-worthy like this. :\

My best friend, who reads LATFH with me, sent me this. She thinks it's hilarious because I want a Brave New World tattoo - she kept insisting I get this, instead.

The thing is tho, this tattoo CAN be salvaged.

August 3 2009, 19:54:42 UTC 2 years ago

this. i hope one day in the future they get another tattoo from a better artist who asks them if they'd like to get that one touched up. hah.

nice in theory, not in practice.
looks really like someone drew it on with a marker.

PERKS.

August 1 2009, 20:07:58 UTC 2 years ago

I just threw up in my mouth a little. It could only have been worse by actually getting something from The Fountainhead.

August 1 2009, 20:09:46 UTC 2 years ago

*giggles*

....I think I can be kicked out of this community for only having actually read one of those books.

depends on which one

The description the website gave underneath that picture made me lol

[info]krysteener

August 1 2009, 22:42:58 UTC 2 years ago

lol forget the tattoo that website is fucking gold.

[info]finsong8

August 1 2009, 22:53:49 UTC 2 years ago

LMAO. The site is amazing. And I agree, terribly done tattoo. I like Perks, though it definitely is not in the same class as 1984 or BNW.

However, the Jeremy Irons picture made me lol. Love him, but his clothes xD

August 1 2009, 23:18:55 UTC 2 years ago

Heh. That is certainly a fucking hipster-y stack of books. Very appropriate for the source website...

[info]necropalice

August 2 2009, 00:13:43 UTC 2 years ago

Haha, I do love that site... I laughed for about a week at the "tee hee! I just remembered we're ADULTS" caption.

As for the tattoo - I don't really like the concept much, to be honest, let alone the execution (which I think we can all agree is depressingly lame).

August 2 2009, 08:40:12 UTC 2 years ago

I KNOW RIGHT.

I mean, Perks got me through a tough time in high school, but fucking hell, at least I recognize that it's pretentious as hell.
