I used to work at a movie store and this guy (he was Caucasian) came up to me and he was covered in tattoos and he looked like like Derek Vinyard. I told him that and he said "Yeah, man, I can't watch that. It brings back bad memories. I used to have that hateful lifestyle". wow.
sharegood thing he said, "used."

Life is tough, but it's tougher when you're stupid.
I guy in my life has a Maltese Cross tattoo on his neck.
