C Man, You Are Hardcore.

A couple of months ago, my friend C told me and a couple of others about his cool idea for a tattoo. He said he wanted BAWBAG (Scots slang for scrotum) on his forearm. C requested we keep it quiet then because he didn't want to be pressured by others into getting it. He's never had any work done before and the thought of having such a visible, not to mention outrageous, tattoo made the man apprehensive for ages.

I told him if he ever got it done I'd buy him a bottle of his favourite drink. The wager was set.

Fast forward to last week, when lo and behold, there appeared a Myspace bulletin. Contained in the bulletin was a picture of this tat, still shimmering, with that mix of blood and ink often seen in brand new pieces. Among the comments were some apologies by his soon-to-be-erstwhile buddies over the momentary collapse of reason that led to this tattooage.

Fucking Hell man, this is incredible.
