While tabling at TAM, a few people asked me (apparently not in jest) whether Skeptic Ink was all about giving people thought provoking tattoos. I said no, but that if they really need a skeptical tattoo artist, I can hook them up. As it happens, my very first tattoo was actually a Christian symbol of torture and death. I’m not proud of that, but in my defense, well, I was young and dumb at the time.

Next time you are on the brink of doing something sort of crazy and possibly permanent, ask yourself, “Am I having a Comic Sans Jesus moment?”
Then back slowly away from the abyss.
