Ms. Conklin (the victim) doesn’t look very Hawaiian, except for living in Hawaii. I hope she makes a full recovery, poor dear.
Apart from that, those tattoos at the collarbones are the ugliest thing. There’s a young woman who goes to the same pool as we do, who has “SERENITY” across her upper chest in gothic script. I haven’t had the nerve to ask whether it’s a reference to the tv program ;-). And one of the lifeguards, I taught him Sunday School in 5th grade, has some kind of Greek text in the same place. Ugh.
haha, Hawaii is full of haoles (the dread WHITE PERSON or non native)
My little twin grandsons have been born and mostly raised there too, and mama is a red head from Pittsburgh.
But if you live there, you get to be called kama ‘aina (sp?) (pronounced kama eye na) even if you’re not Hawaiian.
They will be here soon for the summer and I’m so excited! They’re nine this year. The pic of them on my page is sort of old.
I agree with you about the chest tattoo. People just do any old thing nowadays. Boy I feel old, using that word. Nowadays. Back in the old days.....(said in an old voice)
There’s a saying that goes around, that if a woman has a tattoo in that area, and especially if she has a lot of tattoos, she’s probably crazy in a bad way, but not enough to spend time at a psych ward.
I know a tiny lady with a lot of tattoos, with I think wings in that area, and I think she apparently has some sort of problem with me, even though I live my life not giving people a reason to dislike me.
(”Serenity”: Could be referencing either Seinfeld or AA as well..)
My 17 my year old daughter is bound and determined to get a tattoo in 6 weeks when she turns 18. She is a beautiful girl, and I was distraught about it but she is in her rebellion phase. Other than locking her up for a few years I have run out of options... :)
