what does it mean?!?!?

ok i very recently saw a dude who had a large circular/ovally tattoo on the back of his upper arm (can’t remember if it was left or right arm). let’s start a new feature on the hearts and laserbeams blog, where we the experts deduce what the heck that tattoo means!

1) he’s a huge fan of oprah, and more specifically the oprah book club, so much so that he felt the need to commemorate his newfound love of literature. i’m guessing his favorite read was Black and Blue by Anna Quindlen, cuz lord knows i wanted to beat him up!

2) he could also be a current or past fan of using his vaccuum cleaner to give himself fake hickeys.

3) it’s a zero, standing for how many other people should get this same tattoo. or standing for how many compliments he has gotten on this tattoo. or standing for how many minutes he spent deciding on whether a circle tatto was a good idea.

4) maybe he likes cheerios? or spaghetti-os?

zing!

  1. 1. He needed a way to identify his rear from his elbow.

    2. His best friend has a C on his elbow and they sit next to each other to spell the name of their favorite show.

    3. It was a flesh colored elbow pad.

    4. He said to the tattoo artist, “what can you give me that will get me mentioned on stephcalvertart.com?”
