Your body is a temple.
In the recent weeks, here in lovely San Diego, I have been privy to some conversations I have decided are, to say the least, very dumb. I work at a bar, I hear all sorts of verbal spooge fly from the mouths of the stupid and ignorant of our world. Lately, a hot topic of conversation has been people with tattoos. Many tourist business men have been discussing the fact that lots of people have tattoos and how, and I say this as a truism, heard by mine own ears, how white trash they are. 'Those white trash girls with their tattoos, what sluts', they will snear,'How can they do that to their bodies they say'?, or how about,'I would never get with a woman like that'. There is also the old classic,'The bible says your body is a temple'. All of these arguements are as stupid as they are compelling, or actually stupid...er, um, than they are complelling, because they are pretty stupid and I would like to visciously attack them, if you would bear with me. First I must go after the 'tattoos are white trash', argument. This I find to be an ironic statement, being that it is usually thrown from the mouth of a man, who is doing these things, 1) dinking a beer such as Budwieser or MGD, 2) has already tried to pick up at least four women on the street, by employing the 'woooo baby, bring it here',shout, 3) has discussed kicking a fags ass in the ot to distant past. All these things are very white trash, if tattoos were also white trash, I think the ladies with tattoos would have responded to his mating calls. The sad ' I would never get with a woman like that', statement is a silly, silly, sad one, I have seen many of these, so called, men in action on a late booze filled evening and I can say, without feeling like I am a big fat fibber, that they would get with a lamp post if they thought they could get away with it. The shear fact that these guys claim they wouldn't screw anyone or anything that would allow it is beyond me. Mind youthese are the same guys who love to tell me that they are away from their families for a while and wondering where the hookers are in the city. No lie, they do it all the time, here I left my big purple pimp hat at home, damn. Lastly, the whole your body is a temple thing. How can you be outside of a bar, pouring chemical after chemical down your cancerous throat, while you puff away on cigarettes and then have the audacity to tell a person that the body is a temple? Most of these guys are ridiculously overwieght as well. That is tantamount to telling someone not to do anything to the outside of your house, because you have a wild scheme to light the inside on fire to raise the cost on the market. These people are hypocrits, the worst kind of crit and I hate them with the many fibers of my very fibery being. By the way the arguement of, how will it look when your seventy? That is just a poorly thought out thing to say. When you are seventy, no one, anywhere, other than the deeply depraved, will want to see your sagging naked flesh, so who cares what it will look like? That is what I needed to say, film at eleven.

Here are some thoughts that are implied by your post. 1) Never trust anyone who thinks that a water diluted, corn enhanced white rice sake. 2) Men who employ monkey-like breeding rituals are either a. gay and trying to chase women away, b. gay and still pretty sure women are men, c. women dressed in drag attempting to show the public what turds men are, but never stopping to realize that they are the very ones perpetuating the stereotype, because, come on, those aren't actually guys, d. cute in the same way a retarded monkey is cute. 3) Use more generic street lingo.
All of these are true, but some more than others. You can't legally label a barley wine as a barley wine in the U.S. unless you use the full designation "barley wine style ale". So why oh, why, can they sell sell Bud without the label "pilsner style fermented rice water with corn sweetener"?
I'm glad I am no longer confined to a workplace where I must hear "guys" talking about their sexual exploits. If one is to talk about that stuff, tell it all to a group of girls, If they are impressed then MAYBE you're not gay. Why do guys want to talk to other guys about girl stuff? I know this is controversial but I’m going to say it, sex is a girl thing, it’s not about a guy, and it’s certainly not about guys.
As for the tough street talk, I would suggest something more like, “I disagree with the sexual expression of this individual, and I propose giving him the time machine boot.” Just because you disagree with the tough man talk someone is spewing is no reason to offend them before sending them back in time with your magic shoe.
As far as tattoos go, I must admit that I have a silly double standard. They are okay for girls as long as they properly contrast with the looks or personality of the girl. For example, a 15-20 year old girl should generally wear a tattoo of a skull or dragon or one of her own poems to Charles Manson, A 20-25 year old girl should change those to Hello Kitty or Teletubbies. A girl from 25 years old and on into real adult womanhood should just be covered in scars from laser tattoo removal.
Guys should only have tattoos of butterflies and flowers, and they should only be in a place where another guy will never see them. People have often asked me to design tattoos for them, but I can’t stand to see my art sag. It’s true, I like to pull out my art every once in a while and take a look. I use archival quality papers, I use the best quality canvass. It would almost be considered crazy to peel off their skin after they die and stretch it to the proper proportions, you know, if it wasn’t art.
I'm writing too fast.... 1) should have said, Never trust anyone who thinks that a beer is water diluted, corn enhanced white rice sake
...any other mistakes will not be corrected.
very true, your body is a temple, and my body is a temple. so excuse me if i want to make my temple better than yours by decorating it in what ever way i deem proper.
by the way if you ever have someon tell you that the bible condemns tattoos, Levtitcus 19:28 "Do not cut your bodies in mourning for the dead or mark your skin with tattoos, for I am the Lord." rebutt with the following points.
1. this is also the same ares of the bible that condones women having to leave town when they ary on their period, and selling your daughters into slavery.
2. bring up Ephesians 2:15
"By His death He ended the whole system of Jewish law that excluded the Gentiles. His purpose was to make peace between Jew and Gentiles by creating in himself one new person from the two groups."
3. also Galations 3:24 "Let me put it another way. The law was our guide and guardian to lead us until Christ came.So now througth faith in Christ we are made right with God."
baisically what this says is the old laws don't concern us any more now that jesus has come, and nowhere in the new testament is it said that you shouldn't be tattooed.

Yah... I'm not going to hell!!! Or at least I'm not going to hell for my tattoo...
On the point of being seventy and having tattoos... "what will your children think..." well may I just remind them, my children(assuming we are talking that I will ever procreate.. chances being very slim) would be probably more comfortable with the idea of a tattoo then the fact that they were once squeezed out of my vagina. And I think that would hold water with just about anyone out there.
