More amazing wizards (dragon edition)
It looks like he's about to pitch all the magic onto his hand that's holding the orb, whereupon it will smash into one million pieces and doom the dragon to an eternity underground without his friends or family.
This dude is NOT HAPPY about the dragon's fiery flames. Not one bit.
Since when are wizards 100x bigger than dragons? I like the lightning bolts though.
"Alright, I want a dungeon. A deep, dark, scary dungeon, with a DRAGON and a huge SPIDER, and a lizard, and cobwebs, and an EVIL PLOTTING WIZARD with another dragon on his shoulder, and a CUTE BLUEBIRD and a HEART with a banner with my girlfriend's name on it and a bunch of FLAMES on the other side and some smoke all around everything. Okay?"

My Friend Zak (when bad tattoos come full circle and become awesome, part II)
In the same vein as this dude, Zak and his friends like to get tipsy and tattoo each other. And ridiculousness ensues.
I'm going to post his tattoos in installments, because they are just that amazing, so here is the first, of many.
Here's the story behind it, if I'm remembering correctly... he decided to get a wolf tattoo, because wolves are RAD (p.s. I have a bunch of amazing tribal wolf tattoos to share with you guys). However, no one could tattoo a wolf, so he just went with the word "WOLF!". Then, apparently, there's a Chinese saying "horse, horse, tiger, bear" which brings good luck, I think? So he went with writing those next to "WOLF!" to round out the tattoo. But the words kept getting progressively crappier as he went on, so you can barely read the last one.
This might be one of the worst tattoos I have ever seen, but it is also one of the best.
If you have a silly stick-n-poke tattoo, or have a friend who does, by all means EMAIL ME!

Shamrock Tattoos
The Shamrock
The plant known as a shamrock is one of the most popular representations of Irish culture. It is a three-leafed segment of the old white clover, usually of the type Trifolium dubium. The name shamrock is also applied to other types of plants that have just three leaves, such as sorrel and red clover. A shamrock is not the same as a four leaf clover, however. These are the luckiest type of clover because of a mutation that causes an extra leaf to grow. These rare finds are valued even more highly for luck than the usual three leafed shamrock.
The name shamrock is an English corruption of the Gaelic word for "little clover", seamarĂ³g. The pronunciation of the Gaelic term is close to the way the English word shamrock is pronounced.
Shamrock Symbolism
If you decide to get one of these shamrock tattoos, what exactly is the symbolismbehind this image? Well, shamrocks have been used since Victorian times as a popular pattern for items such as clothing and decorations, and the shamrock is reported to have medicinal uses as well. Additionally, shamrocks are one of the biggest symbols of luck throughout the world - with many people equating a shamrock to other lucky images such as horseshoes and crossed fingers.
The shamrock also has both a religious connotation and a political one. Catholics may use this image as a representation of St. Patrick, and his saint's day, March 17. The soldiers of the Royal Irish Regiment wear a sprig of shamrock on this day, the shamrock being their emblem. This emblem was decreed by Queen Victoria a century ago - in recognition of those Irish soldiers who fought in the Boer War.
Shamrock Tattoos
There are many different styles and versions of shamrock tattoos available for you to choose from, whether you would like to get one done from flash art or have a tattoo designed just for you. The popularity of shamrocks as an Irish symbol, as well as one of good luck, mean that many people opt for this foliage tattoo. Women as well as men can be seen sporting a shamrock tat, placed in a variety of spots all over the body.Unlike many tattoos which can be seen in either black and white or color, almost all shamrock tats are done with bright colored ink. This is because the color green is almost as important as the image of the shamrock itself. Green is "the" color of Ireland, and a non-green shamrock would not have the same impact as a colorfully inked one. Beyond this one consistency, a shamrock tat can be done in almost any style, including:
- Celtic knots interwoven within the shamrock
- Tribal artwork in and around the shamrock
- Photo realistic, almost portrait-like, artwork
- Cartoon styles, such as those seen on Old School tats
You can also choose to have a shamrock tattoo inked as part of a larger piece. For instance, the flag of Montreal includes a shamrock in its design (as a representation of one of the city's largest populations at the time it was created). The University of Notre Dame (the Fightin' Irish) also uses the shamrock as a symbol, as do several colleges and universities in the city of Dublin, Ireland. Or, you could use the shamrock as just part of a collage of "luck" items - including a horseshoe, heart, shamrock and whatever else is lucky to you

Wizards with triangle things on their hats
This one has a sketch next to it, but it can't be the original.
I love how they are all the same, but have their own little personalities...
... like "mild" written over the nipple, for example.
And finally one in color! I can't decide if the color makes this bad tattoo more or less awesome. There's something about the classic black and white wizard that I really love, but I think anything magical really deserves to be in color.
I'm sure there are many more wizards-with-triangle-things-on-their-hats out there, I just have to find them. If you know of anyone with one of these, or know where they might come from, please let me know!

Bikes (part 2)
There are so many better things you could put on your chest! Symmetrical, flattering, awesome things! Why why why why why why would you put a line drawing of a BIKE on your BOOBS? It makes her left boob look 10x bigger and droopier than the right because the left wheel is so much bigger.

At least it's well done. And I hope it's just the first outline and that she went and got it colored in later. And maybe put some stuff behind it to even the whole thing out.
p.s. my friend has a blog about funny emails he gets at work, if you're bored you should check it out.
