    Default Complete idiot

    http://arts.guardian.co.uk/art/news/...009780,00.html

    A 19-year-old today had a full English breakfast tattooed on his head.
    Dayne Gilbey was inked with bacon, eggs, sausages, beans and cutlery during the six-hour session
    Mr Dickinson said his next project would involve a volunteer having their own face tattooed on the back of their head.

    Its not as bad as I though it would be. Really, it's something I have not heard of before. Personally, I like the style in which it was made, but it looks kinda poorly executed. I wouldn't do it, but I would not call someone a "complete idiot" if they had it done and done well.

    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    Well, by the looks of his recruiting efforts, he's clearly seeking to do an about-face.

    On topic, there is no way I'd have someone makin' bacon on my head, let alone put a sausage there. They'd be toast if they tried. If you look on the sunny side, breafast is the most important meal of the day so it is well that it is foremost on his mind.

    On on topic, I think Mr. Dickson (the artist) has some nerve trying to charge for that tatoo. Dayne "Breakfast Head" Gilbey should have charged Dickson for the canvas.

    I'm sure his family and friends weren't egg-specting this.

    I want to get a bust of Socrates tattooed on me. That'd be way more righteous than the English Breakfast.

    Why? I say this bald one could become a shining bacon of progreggs. He can baldly go where no man has gone before: moving straight on from giving head to breakfast by just showing his sausage.

    It would probably be more theraputic to smack me. If it makes you feel any better, I often feel like smacking myself after I write some of these. Now we just need to get EA and BG to stop going out of their way to feed me with this stuff, then I might be able to control my reflexive punnishness...or not.

    I'm concerned that this thread is simply going rind and rind, till it becomes an empty shell. It's just a hash, browning me off.

    And the subject is tat, too.

    Eggxactley. A bit of a hamfisted attempt at buliding a hill of beans. His brains must be scrambled, fried or even toasted. I do hope he can see the sunny side up or if not get over easy on the bread and butter of art.

    I still have to wonder what was this guy inking? Some people will do anything for a meal.


    If the kid gets a toupe, would that make the tatoo a covered dish?
