“What was he convicted of?” someone asked.

“He had tattoos on his body,” she replied triumphantly.

“Hey, smartass!” shouted a woman in her sixties, jumping to her feet. “You want to see my tattoo?”

“Lady,” the Trump supporter said. “You don’t know what a tattoo is.”

“Yes I do, I’ve got one!” the woman shouted, tapping her chest.

The Trump supporter dismissed her with a wave of one hand. “I’ve had enough of you Democrats,” she said.

      Im trying in my head to make that response of “he had tattoos on his body” less stupid than it is, but cannot come up with a scenario where someone would get tattoos anywhere else.

        Trying to get into magas heads is a bit like entering the Kaiju minds: dangerous with extensive psychological side effects, and to be avoided

        You’re focused on the word, “body”, when the one that makes the difference is “on”.

        If he had tattoos in his body, it would be ok.

        It’s just a bit more difficult to find a tattoo artist who is willing to work on the inside.

      Tattoos are basically body mutilation or improvement, depending on who you ask. beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

      I wonder what she thinks of body mutilation like hair cut, nail cutting, plastic surgery and circumcision.
