Yall have probably heard of the popular Roman Emperor ‘Julius Caesar.’ He was a bro who was once on top of the world, but then lost it all. Apparently, he had some sort of clan of bros, but then his bros got ‘mad jealous’ and ‘totally greedy.’ They decided to kill him, and even his main bro, Brutus was in on it. When he was about to die, he finally figured out that BrutBFF was ‘in on it’, and he just said:

‘Et tu, Bruté?’
aka ‘even u, Brutusbro?’

Here is a picture I made of Julius being betrayed by his group of core bros.

Damn. Wonder if the bro with that tattoo was ‘betrayed’ by some1 close to him, like his parents, a girlfriend, or possibly his best bro. Can’t imagine always wanting to remember that I was betrayed by getting a tattoo of it. Sorta reminds me of when Ed Norton got a swastika tattoo for the movie American History X, but then had to keep it for the rest of his life.

Also admire the bro’s symmetrical ‘Vietnamese execution bro’ tattoo.

Seems like this bro is ‘very in touch’ with human suffering, and possibly ‘outsourced his body’ to be some sort of symbol or think piece to remind ppl that there are ppl out there who have it worse than us.

He seems noble. I srsly would never do that. I feel like I’d end up getting a tattoo that was ’simple and kewl’ like a barb wire tatty around my arm, or possibly some sort of ‘interesting tribal tattoo’ that attracted females to me. Might just get a ‘zany tattoo’ for the sake of it being an internet meme.

Have u ever been betrayed by a core group of bros?
What do u do to remind urself that other people in the world are suffering?
Would u ever get a tattoo of an AZN being executed?

I just want to make it clear that these people aren’t bands–they are just myspacers who deserve attention for changing the way we view the world. Myspacers can inspire u. I want 2 inspire u by blogging about them. Yay! Back 2 our roots, yall!

Does ink make u m0re or less ‘real’?
Am I a coward if I am afraid of putting a symbol on my body that will represent my personal brand forever? Does that mean I am not ‘living in the moment’ enough? Does that mean I don’t have any pride in the cultural movement in which I am embedded?
Scared of forever. Not good at relationships. :-(

This tattoo is an open letter to those people who aren’t in constant pursuit of a more meaningful life. This is a tattoo for old people to read, making them wish they still had their whole lives’ ahead of them. This is a tattoo to my mom, my dad, my uncle who served in Vietnam, and every one else who doesn’t understand the essence of my generation. They do not understand what I am a part of, and that this tattoo is about something bigger than myself.

Sometimes, an act of expression is bigger than just ’self-expression.’ It’s a random act of kindness for all of humanity. Don’t get a tattoo to look cool and start convo. Get a tattoo because it means something.

Should I get a tatty of my fave band?

Should I get Barry Obama’s [LEAKED] inauguration speach tattooed on my chest?

I think this bro’s personal b00mb0x probably has just enough ‘OOMPH’ to make sure you can hear every decibel of a banger. Hopefully that stereo system can handle [HIGH QUALITY] mp3s, and not just ‘krappy mp3s that krappie mp3 blogs post.’

Speaking of tatties….
Should I get a swarm of butterflies flying up my hip? Would it make me overtly ghey or just ‘kinda bi’?

Stars: The Most Overrated Symbol of All Time?
(or is it the Triangle?)

Most people seem to opt for the Mexican-cursive styled chest tattoos, like the font that you’d see airbrushed on a 16 year old Mexican girl’s personalized t shirt. I respect people with innovative chest tattoos.

I guess that begs the question…is being ‘an airbrushed tshirt artist’ a gateway job towards ‘being a tattoo artist?’ Or is it a gateway job towards ‘being a dude on a street corner who makes interplanetary 3d art while crowds of tourist drool over his ’skills’ ‘?
