And you know that wasn't just a drunken mistake, because that took multiple sittings. Yikes! Someone needs to just turn the TV off and back away....

When the person with the Bob Barker tattoo is elderly, however, it'll be perfect!

Someone should make sure this woman is spayed, though.

Paul, your comment reminds me of when I first met my brother's former wife (then girlfriend). She was about 5'2" and 300lbs. She came to meet the family (including my hypercritical mom) and wore a wifebeater tank top and no bra. She had a rose tattoo on one breast and a unicorn on the other. They were already turning into an orchid and a giraffe.

I wonder if the chick with the conan o'brien tattoo is in the book. I saw her one night on his show. It was little, but still goofy.

Fred--instead of the pro-choice slogan "Keep your hands off my body" it's "Keep my face off your body!"
