To tat or not to tat?

Tattoos mean different things to different people. For some they're rites of passage, for others they symbolize names/dates/times we want to memorialize on our bodies for a lifetime. I've seen all kinds in all places: full-body ink; eyeball tats; various random body parts; and even scrawled big and bold across the forehead. The subjects range from lost loved ones, to nicknames, to chinese symbols for shrimp fried rice. And regardless of what any of us think, the tat only has to make sense to the person wearing it.

And despite all that, the extra large, triple scoop, lightning bolt waffle cone that now adorns half of gucci mane's face makes me question what in the blue hell was that boy thinking?! Everyone's seen a questionable tat or two in their lifetime, but that's just damn dumb. The ignorance of his rainbow sherbet "brrrr" sugar cone ranks right up there with the woman who broadcasts her fellatio skills proudly in the center of her chest. No grown ass man should be rocking ice cream as a tat unless he invented ice cream. Who does that? Better yet, why would you do that? And even better still, why didn't anyone in his entourage stop him?

But really, should I be surprised the man decided to profess his love for rocky road on his face? Probably not. If you've ever heard his music, you know intelligence isn't what he raps about, so why should I expect him to have something intelligent to put permanently on his body. I suppose it's just one more ignorant tattoo by an ignorant dude. And with that, I'm through. If you haven't seen it, check the link below.
