"were not gonna take it"




If anyone sees Karen Cunningham in passing, lobby her to let me get a tattoo. Any and all forms of persuasion are welcome, but don't be scared to be direct, "Mrs. Cunningham this bunt cake is deliciousletjoshhaveatattoo. Did you do something differentlyhe'sturning18?
I will, no doubt, be doing my part. Excessive nagging ("Johnny Depp has them so why can't I?"), subliminal messaging, finding impromptu ways to foster discussion on the importance of self expression through art, hunger strikes, overabundantly well placed postit notes to further facilitate the nagging strategy, leaving messages written in ketchup on my plate after dinner, blaming everything that goes wrong in my life on my lack of a tattoo and then faking a catatonic state until she caves, and blaring "we will overcome" Nelson Mandela speeches at 3:00 am from my room.

What kind of tattoo would I be lobbying for? 'Cause I swear Josh, I'm not doing anything unless you are getting some sweet shreded barbewire around your bicept. Or possibly one of those tribal tattoos across your shoulder blades (OHH YEEAAAHH!!!). Either way, welcome to the gentleman's club.

yeah for real...what would you want a tattoo of? and i am feeling that the nelson mandela speech idea, though clever, will not get you very far with "Karen"...
