Tattoos are bad, but lying is okay?
Some years back, when I used to go movie theaters, I was standing in line with my wife for tickets, and it was a long line.
As we got closer, I noticed the teenage kid working the register, and from where I was, I saw he had a serious complexion problem. I felt some pity for him. Being an adolescent boy can be tough, but when your complexion is that bad with pimples and such, damn. My heart went out to him.
And when we got closer, I saw that he has some kind of facial surgery and had some kind of prosthetic on his upper and lower lips. Just wow.
As I got close enough, I saw that while his complexion was indeed bad, he had tattoos on his face and neck.
And the prosthetic for the facial surgery was a long row of piercings not only on the upper and lower lips, but on the nostrils too.
I swear, I almost got angry for wasting my sympathetic emotions on that. Not kidding. It really got me stirred up inside.
