Sigh. Another day, another tattoo that should never have gone beyond the temporary variety.<\/p>\n

For one thing, where’s the apostrophe in “don’t”? Guess T-pain’s tattoo artist doesn’t have to like punctuation. Back to the larger point: in an age where technology changes constantly, do you really want a lifelong tattoo based on something that may not be recognizable 10 years from now?
