Ow. My brain hurts. Octoupuss? Tentekils? What is with the random lack of spaces between some words [theouterside], extra spaces within things that should be words [all so], and random spaces WITHIN words [theout lineof]?
How many right legs does she have? Doesn’t saying you have a back right leg sort of imply that there’s a front right leg as well?
And here’s a thought: Call me crazy, but maybe if you’re on a fixed income, you and your son shouldn’t be getting elaborate tattoos?
[Edited to add: with spizzlefish’s prompting in the comments below, I realized that “rontatooman” anagrams to “or an ottoman“. Yes, I’m easily amused, why do you ask?]
DW, thanks for the submission!
So, I wonder if Ron knows of her plan to sell him for only $160?? I think I’d buy a tattoo artist for that much, just keep him my garage in case I was in the mood for a tattoo.
ouch ouch OUCH! I think my eyes rolled back in my head to avoid looking at that atrocity. drmk’s comments exacty mirrored my own reaction to this ad. “Tresserchest,” “putonn,” and “tentekils” were my favorites.
“Tresserchest tentekils” would be a good name for a band.
But what would their first hit single be called?
“Kagome Finally Gets Some”?
It was more painful to read the second time!
In all that mess, how did she manage to spell “staph” correctly? Was it just an accident?
My money is on multiple experiences with staph infections, probably due to improperly (i.e. not) caring for recent piercings.
I was thinking the exact same thing Larry.
Evidence of YSaC addiction: when I saw this headline, I immediately assumed that “rontatooman” was yet another attempt at “ottoman.”
It does anagram to “Or an ottoman”!!
holy crap, it’s like the DaVinci Code with tentekils!
Sadly it took your pointing out that is was an anagram for “or an ottoman” for me to finally be able to read that is says “ron tatoo man” once the proper spaces were added.
I want to go on an antibotic pill. I could use fewer botics in my life.
The misspellings I could oddly enough deal with it was the complete lack of punctuation anywhere in the entire post that quickly drove me to want to jamb a pencil in my eyes there’s no where to stop ever it feels like it’s never going to end and since the rant is a bajillion misspelled words long I don’t think it ever did Sartre was wrong hell is not other people it’s other people’s awful writing
I love how she’s had bad work done by an amateur tattoo artist and she feels like the thing to do now is SOLICIT RANDOM INTERNET FUCKTARDS to come fix it. Because going to a professional, health-inspected tattoo parlour would be crazy…
Oooh, there should be a tag called “you get what you pay for”.
If there isn’t already, I second the suggestion!
I love how she spells undone correctly, but done is “don.”
And just how big is her right front leg?
octoupuss head and all the tentekils
the tresserchest
astar fish
a seen with asunset
water (clearly not ocean water)
palmtrees
ocean water
two dolphins one jumping over the other one
treasurechestdon
the scubadiver
You should see her left leg.
She has a tattoo of “Creation of Adam” by Michelangelo. It’s full-sized.
I heart YSaC!
I can’t get through it. Honestly it melts what little remains of my brain.
OMG! My head hurts….I had a headache before I started reading this and now I’m being forced into the medicine cabinet by a little lady with a large right leg, an undone tattoo, and a son with a staph infection! Ibuprofen here I come!
I find this quite artistic, conceptually speaking I mean, it’s got to be done purposely:
1. – spelling makes the content difficult to seize.
2. – lack of punctuation adds some more cryptic touches.
3. and once you get through all of this, it is mentally impossible to visualise how the actual tattoo (and body for that matter) looks like in reality.
LOL! Thanks drmk and the rest of you, I needed a good laugh!
REALLY REALLY wish that there was a picture (or pictures) accompanying this post – something like:
picture of unfinished tattoo
picture of badly spelt slogan beneath tattoo
picture of angry redneck family waving fists
picture of infected son morosely displaying skanky tattoo
But yeah – the ability to spell something correctly (treasure)in one sentence, and then so bizarrely (tresser) in the next is a talent that the rest of us just have to sit back and admire….. thankyou YSaC.
I think she was already getting any random asshat that learned tattooing in prison.
She did have someone tattoo her out of his house.
Maybe Ron took advantage of her for being stupid enough to disprove Darwin by her mere existence.
Maybe it’s me, but i don’t want any permanent body modifications done in some dudes kitchen while he watches “Family Fued” on a small TV on top of a larger broken TV.
It’s the “small tv on top of a larger broken tv” that sold it for me. CAN’T. STOP. GIGGLING. 😀
She’s like a lady aquarium.
(Another great band name!)
Lady Aquarium being a Gaga-Phish-metroCountry mashup band, obviously.
I have to agree – why is this woman getting tattoos if she’s so worried about her lack of money? Going to a guy working out of his house instead of saving up for a reputable artist is idiotic in the extreme. You get what you pay for (in this case, a staph infection).
Looking online for some random idiot with the same setup makes it even worse.
The spelling, grammar, and punctuation (or lack of all three, really) nearly made my head explode. This woman’s English teacher (assuming she went to much school at all) is rolling in his/her grave fast enough to power a small city.
Because I am a curious creature, I typed 172 Lampman Ave. into google maps and the first link was this lovely little gem (text below because it will probably expire soon):

Looks like ron-the-tattoo-man just had a little garage sale recently.
I am eyeing that corona neon light sign in particular.

rontatooman seems to be a bit more lucid than the OP.
Moral of the story: never get a tattoodon with a cordless drill.
…if she’s on a fixed income, why is she getting a tattoo? Anyway, that’s pretty much all I could get out of this before my brain imploded. I think I’d have better luck interpreting some long dead, as-yet-undiscovered language than this crap.
I echo the plea for a photograph! … I’d love to see some megenta tentekils … although what a great name for a group? eat your heart out Oasis! Perhaps on benefits and without a tv she could shimmy and dance and thus entertain the neighbourhood?
One of the computers in my lab has a space bar that needs to be pressed very deliberately in order to actually add a space. If I’m not careful when I type, I end up w/ something that looks like the spacing of this.
Of course, I look at what I’ve typed, so I can go back and fix all the typos before saving or sending or posting anything.
Unfinished tattoos with no spaces…. sounds like a Rorschach test. Ron tatoo man wants to know what you see.
In Rontatooman’s defense, maybe he doesn’t have much experience doing ocean-themed tattoos on centaurs.
I have a challenge for you.
Go back and try not reading it in ShatnerVoice now.
Plus, I thought all tattoos went on the “outerside”.
I went back and didn’t read it in my voice.
Plus, I’m not showing you my tatoo on my spleen.
Except for lip tattoos on horses.
I think maybe antibotics are for getting rid of spambots and the like. Stick a pill in a USB port to attack the bots internally, spread the cream over your monitor so’s you cannot see the offending result of the bots.
Sea? Ican maek scents of mos eney theeng.
Is aman ron like a male moron?
No, I think it’s an ancient Egyptian god. Maybe the god of the cheap tattooes.
“treasurechestdon”
Wasn’t that a dinosaur from the Chestaceous Period?
I actually know people like this. They are on a fixed income, but any extra money is spent on frivolities rather than necessities. Body piercings, new hairdos and the like, the money is never spent on anything useful. Our tax dollars at work.
That was the best tv series ever, Scubadiver Putton. I watched it every Saturday morning in the tattoo parlor.

This snarky One, He’s so fun,
He plays knick-knack in the sun!
But instead of a paddy-whack, here’s your Punchity Punch Punch!
Good Morning, Ill Illustrated Ma’am!
O frabjuous joy!
I just want to buy her a spacebar. And to encourage the proper use thereof.
