HAPPY FRIDAYS TO YOU WITH LOVE FROM TATTOO

Recommended Read

What originally began as an IM conversation between two friends taking friendly stabs about the stereotypical likes of white people has now been published in a 2008 paperback release from Random House.

Christian Lander, the brains behind stuffwhitepeoplelike.com [the blog that sprouted the book] has answered all questions about the blog and book here, namely to point out that the site isn't meant to be racist, but "a scientific approach to highlight and explain stuff white people like." Says the About section of the website - "They are pretty predictable."

The blog covers all sorts of hilariously cynical stereotypes.
My faves:
#105 Unpaid Internships
#103 Sweaters
#88 Having Gay Friends
#83 Bad Memories of High School,
and the one that brings me the most joy:

#9 Making you feel bad about not going outside.

Something tells me that Hating the New Facebook Layout will be making the top of the list any day now.

This blog makes our blog jealous

So much so that we're not going to even try to find a funky black and white half-in-focus, half-out-of-focus, "we're too cool 'cuz we're with the cool kids" photograph to compete with, mkay?
Instead you're getting a color snap shot of a Bill Cosby-esque graffiti character taken down a back alley on a disposable camera from Wal-Mart.

Yeah that's right, a disposable camera from Wal-Mart!



Damn you, Mikes.

Saving the world, One Bottle at a time

Long time, no blog.

Here at Tattoo we've been busy saving the world, One Bottle at a time.
Toronto alone has an annual consumption of 65 million individual plastic water bottles every year, a number that contributes to the 7% annual increase the world experiences. 6 out of 10 plastic bottles aren't even recycled in Ontario, and studies show that plastic bottles are linked to certain health risks.

So in our efforts to move away from plastic bottle usage, we've purchased reusable stainless steel eco-friendly bottles for your use and pleasure.

Come here for a session? Help save the world!
