I could totally see the Earnhardt thing or the Jarret thing. Auto racing fans can be fanatical in their devotion. The Lindros thing is a stretch, unless maybe they're from Philly.
@6: Oh, I'm sure Dan's just too busy hanging out with the likes of Colbert and Behar and Olbermann and trying to cut some multi-million-dollar deal in Hollywood. He'll be back, don't worry.
Thanks for the flashback. I was once the proud owner of a 1968 Olds Delta 88. A mammoth beast of a car with a truly gigantic engine (for towing trailers!).
Still... I can't see anyone being enough of a fan of that old thing to tattoo it on their arm. :-/
@ 10 Likewise. That was the first time I've EVER had to stop reading something because I was eating. Scat, MTF surgery, Congress, those horrors I can handle, but brrrr.
This dude probably got his tattoo and his love of man-mouth from prison. I know a couple people with actual swastika tatoos and they claim they HAD to get them while they were in prison, so as to affiliate themselves with white gang members for protection. Why they don't get the damn things covered up now I don't know. My guess would be they are not sure that they can stay out of prison so they might as well keep the swastikas they already have.
I will say if I were a secret nuclear scientist (and into tattoos), I'd probably have the radioactive symbol tattooed on me somewhere, or Ra, or something clever/cute in atomic symbols from radioactive substances (ThinkGeek tends to do funny ones).
Yeah, I'm pretty sure the dude's a racist. Or at least, was a racist at some point. The only other realistically plausible scenario is the NASCAR thing, and any self-respecting redneck race fan's gonna get his tattoo done in a distinctive and recognizable script depicting the team he races for. Though I would have to applaud the dude for being quite open minded as far as racists go.
Now see, I would have gone with "copy and paste," but that's just me...
@12 for the insightful win.
@14 Cracking me up, again.
I note Dan's cat lady Colleen K. is now waaaay ahead in Tidy-Cat votes.

You know there weren't 88 of them; they just called themselves that because it "sounds cool."
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!! Will? Stop?
Ha! Ha! Ha ha ha ha!
