We get these every two months or so in the Northeast. I never thought they were that big a deal until the internet decided to tell me so.

The one in that picture is pretty tame- sometimes they get twice that size and the edge goes a sort of whitish purple.

I love how everyone complains about how rude our culture is today. Missing the openly tolerated racism of the 20th century? The repressive and also extremely racist and sexist Victorianism of the 19th? How about the same exact things happening for the entire history of the human race? Nothing's changed.

@Kalel- I see what you did there.

Easily the cutest thing I've seen all day.

I don't see why everyone's blaming the tattoo artist for doing it in the first place. That's his job; I'm sure if he rejected every single person who came in asking for something stupid he'd never get paid.

That said, wow, yeah, stars on the face. Five minutes of forethought and none of this would have happened.

"But the feminist movement (and their male enablers) decided to throw the baby out with the bath water.
And you know what the punch line is? Women are very, very confused now."

Hello, do you have ovaries? I do, and I'm fairly certain I'm not confused running my own life without a man to do it for me. Kthx.
