I saw a tattoo on Miami Ink a while ago that was of a big-eyed girl crying tears of blood. Who is this artist or what is this called? Just curious, not planning on getting a tat.

I wouldn't worry about it too much-tattoos were once the preserve of sailors, prositutes , and carnival roustabouts and the freak show. Today of course the market has expanded to millionaire freaks, prostitutes, and carneys-though we refer to them as entertainers, sports celebrities, actors ,rockstars and pornographic performers. From this, a confused society has embraced the idea of decorating their bodies with symbols that mean nothing and will mean even less when the victim becomes older and wants to get rid of their ill conceived mistakes. But it's too late-the more than likely drug addled tattoo "artist" has done his damage-you've paid good money and wasted precious time and as you get older that filthy old tattoo that was a mistake becomes a comical faded joke. And the joke's on you!
