How I wasted another Australia Day
オーストラリアディおめでとう！！オージー達エーミちゃん（ダリのゾウのタトゥーの子）が愛国者タトゥーシールを持って来てくれた！
Happy fakkin’ Australia Day!… a few days late. Aussie friend Amy (the girl with the Dali Space Elephant on her leg – check it out!) brought by some patriotic tattoos so we could get our unchecked nationalism in full effect.
中国製や！大丈夫かなぁ。スーパー玉出の肉の匂いやわ。
Proudly made in the “people’s” republic of Fugazis – China! Just like fake tattoo machines and fake copies of my tattoo flash!
さぁ、ニックケーヴに仲良くするため、どれに選ぼうかな？
But which design to choose to ingratiate myself to Paul Hogan, Nick Cave, and Jon Howa… ok, just Paul Hogan and Nick Cave.
キョンちゃんはシンプルなデザインを！本物やったら彫るのは大変そう！
Kyon, goin’ for simplicity! In case anyone wants an actual tattoo is concentric lines around letters… I don’t recommend it.
残念ながらタトゥーシールのプロじゃないからオージーのお姉ちゃんに任せるしかない！
Sadly, we were too incapacitated (and too inept) to apply temporary tattoos and had to have the service performed by a qualified Australian.
有刺鉄線は囚人っぽいからえぇやないか？でも一件で終わらせるわけない！
Barbed wires are a traditional convict-y tattoo so that’s what I picked. But why stop there…
これにしたら自分のタトゥー番組がもらえるはずやなぃ？大阪インクやぁ！次のタトゥーブームの中心はここから始まる様に！
Make way for our ailing industry’s new darling – Bat Von B! If you need me, I’ll be in my diamond encrusted dressing room awaiting my next tribal armband and memorizing my lines for the next season of Osaka ink… but only after I’m done driving my gold-plated Benz in front of the cameras.
…
or at the local pub singing the wrong version of Waltzing Matilda!
