Anon pathice,

Vos, quod milia multa basiorum
legistis, male me marem putatis?
Pedicabo ego vos et irrumabo.

I would never have a quote tattooed on me. Or anything else, but I find quotation tattoos especially nauseating.

In my experience, the people who are obsessed with the pithy (and often out of context/mistranslated/just WRONG) sentiments of others are pseudo-profound cretins who have not read, and could not read, the often very serious works that they are reducing to fucking soundbites in order to satisfy their own need to appear interesting or insightful.

This is also common to anyone who posts on internet forums with 'sigs' consisting mostly of quotations. A quick search on Google will usually reveal that these have been taken from websites dedicates specifically to compiling dubious quotes, and not from any real engagement with the work they're borrowing from. FUCK OFF AND DIE.
