Doofus Of The Day #631


Today's Doofus was encountered in Florida, although it's not clear whether our winner is also from that state.  The Huffington Post reports:

Anal tattoos are the "next big thing."

Or, at least, that's what some people are saying after meeting this woman at the 17th annual South Florida Tattoo Expo, which was held at the Marriott Hotel, Golf Club & Convention Center in Coral Springs, Fla., last weekend.

It felt "really, really good," the 22-year-old said of the process.

One observer noted that the whole anus-tattooing thing seemed pretty "cool."

"It's kind of a neat thing to do," he told a reporter from the New Times Broward-Palm Beach.

Users on social news site Reddit were quick to pick up on this "trend."

Many appeared to disagree, however, that anal tats are a good idea, and few were able to stay away from the seemingly requisite bathroom humor that comes with the territory.

There's more at the link.

CAUTION - NOT SAFE FOR WORK! - There's also a video report about the 'lady' concerned.  View it at your own risk.  (Brain bleach may be required afterwards.)

I can't help but wonder . . . is tattooing the name of your significant other in that particular location (as the 'lady' in question did) really a good idea?  I mean, a bad case of the runs might indicate something other than overflowing love, wouldn't you say?  And I think any comments about an 'anal-retentive' attitude would be superfluous . . .

Boilerdoc,
My guess is she was raised away from a father.

I heard the latest "anal tattoo" craze was putting little yellow smiley faces on the hemmorrhoids.

That way your proctologist will "have a nice day"!

Good God.

One day she will have children.

There are some ideas that should just be left at the idea stage. I'd be very concerned about hygiene and healing with ink in that sort of location.

(And here I thought the nice lady with the lovely full-color Lutheran Rose on her calf was a tad odd. She's ELCA.)

Anal tats - ewww.

But it did get me thinking. I could do with some tritium sights for late night bathroom breaks. Might save me an argument or two.

I know people that if they asked for an anal tattoo the artist wouldn't know where to start...

You know, the words "anal" and "next big thing" should never be used in the same sentence.
