I mean, what do you say, what do you say to anyone who has decided to brand the Hello Kitty logo onto themselves for life, willingly?
I do love the conspiracy theory Kitty Hell has that Sanrio invented a Hello Kitty virus that makes people do things like this. In my eyes, that's a more feasible explanation than someone willingly wanting to do this.
Of course I don't want to jump to conclusions, I will have you understand. But in my eyes, these people are all mentalists. You could have ANY image in the world branded onto you and these people chose Hello Kitty.
Not only are these Hello Kitty Tattoos, these are hybrid Hello Kitty Tattoos. The ninja tattoo and Darth Vader Kitty tattoo are just beyond any reasonable explanation. Surely someone has got to kidding with the "Hello Kitty is my Jesus" design (is there a church of Hello Kitty?)
My will to live had once again fled as I got sucked into Hello Kitty land, sneaking a peak at the Kitty zombie tattoo along the way.
