It's funny that all the people who think the guy is "cool" is calling the people that think he is "stupid" a narrow minded bigots. It's the equivalent of the back and forth "no, your stupid" argument. The guy may or may not be stupid, who cares. He certainly doesn't want anything to do with mainstream society. I suspect he doesn't really comprehend what that means. I'm sure he just wanted to be different. He either enjoys the staring or he will (no doubt) have the tattoo removed.
