Tiger Woman - the tattooed woman at Ground Zero

#1

While at Ground Zero - I saw something that I've never, ever, seen before in my life.  It will be totally ok with me if I never see it again.

I saw a very overweight woman walking towards me that had been tattooed ALL OVER HER BODY with stripes of a tiger.  She was wearing shorts and a tank top and every exposed part of her body (and there was plenty of it) had been done in these stripes.....including her neck and face.

I was repulsed (and truth be known - still am) but I was more amazed and shocked when it first happened. I wish I had a picture of THAT to show you.

I guess it serves as a reminder that people come in all shapes and sizes and some people like the attention that they get from the way they look AND that 'permanent' means something different to each and everyone. 

Some tattoo work is "art" but hers was grafitti - not very tasteful either.

I can still picture her - and I just want to wretch when I think about it.

Yeah. It would have grossed me out, too. I guess it's true that people come in many different stripes.
