My friend showed me this website. I find it very odd....

1. Odd indeed

That is almost cruel too but, I was circumcised when I was younger so I guess the parents can do it if they want?

2. I'm sure that kid will love her Strawberry Shortcake tattoo

When she's 35

3. this is our version of "totems"

--depressingly shallow and pathetic when corporate-designed icons like Batman and Strawberry Shortcake are treated with reverance, like someone's life-guide. JMHO.

4. Isn't this a form of child abuse?

I mean how can a baby say they WANT a tat? This is FUCKING insane!

5. This is a joke right?

This is wrong on so many levels! What parent in their right mind would take their babies to get tattoos? In addition to the pain involved, those kids don't realize that what they get on their bodies will be there forever(unless they undergo painful laser treatments).

9. yes

it is a joke. I too thought it was real upon first pass.

Here's another (joke) site that also kinda freaked me out...

6. $$$$$$ for the GOP kids.

7. I guess we really do need a nanny state

to protect some little kids from their stupid parents. I can only hope state legislatures will find a way to stop this.

I guess the tattoo parlors' business slows down when the parents run out of places on their bodies to tattoo, so the business has to find a new market. This is abusive and unnecessary.

8. This

was an April fools joke that just won't die. It keeps going and going and going and going and going and going.

10. Third freaking time for this "Gotcha!"

It's a prank, put on by some radio station...

Maybe this needs to go in the DU FAQ...
