Remember the Guy with the Romney Tattoo?


Eric Hartsburg -- who was paid $15,000 to get a five inch Romney campaign tattoo on his face -- now tells Politico he's "totally disappointed, man. I'm the guy who has egg all over his face, but instead of egg, it's a big Romney/Ryan tattoo. It's there for life."

But he added, "I'm hoping this opens some other doors in the entertainment business."

1. He was a damn fool...

Wasn't it Shakespeare who said that a fool and his money are soon parted?

Sure is true here!

[calimary]

2. Talk about a scarlet letter!

That young lad is a marked man. How humiliating! If the idiocy fits, wear it!

Shared on Facebook - and I said "THINK before you ink!" And then, added this, one of the comments below the story in the link above.

Another tattoo victim who lived to tell the tale:
"My ex-wife was a buxum lass, and insisted on a pegasus tattoo on her left breast. I tried to dissuade her, pointing out that age would change the appearance of the character. It was to no avail. Now in her later years she sports a tattoo that looks like a giraffe with wings."

19. "Giraffe with wings". Gotta love it. LOL

3. He's a reminder to all who see him

That people do stupid things.

[BainsBane]

4. that's worse than a tattoo with a lover's name

pathetic.

[Dyedinthewoolliberal]

5. Uhhhhhhhhh Dude?

No. No entertainment career for you. Unless they make another "Jackass" movie........

[Marr]

6. Can you imagine what Romney thinks of this?

What a ignorant plebe he would think this man. I'll bet Romney has SHOES that cost more than this guy got for tattooing his face.

[longship]

7. Are those piercings, too?

Looks like it. It kinda fits. Yes, I am going to pierce my face, and while I'm at it, I am going to show everybody how intelligent I am by getting a Romney campaign tattoo on my face.

Good luck with that. Maybe you shouldn't have gotten that brain piercing.

8. The only appropriate thing for him to do now

is to tattoo the letters L O S E just to the left of the rMoney sign.

[immoderate]

9. A permanent remembrance of a fleeting feeling...

My friends daughter says the Romney logo looks like a fat butt.

There are now ways to remove tats with lasers. Will probably cost the same as the $15,000 he got to put it on there.

10. Maybe he can move to Utah and start up a write in campaign for Robert Redford.

Kind of a dim bulb here, I fear.

[babylonsister]

12. Hahaha!

Very good, Bucky.

[Junkdrawer]

11. If he got a psychologist to prescribe a removal....

would health insurance cover it?

[Spirochete]

13. Maybe Steve-O feels a little better now...

[Sheepshank]

21. That looks like Sheldon from Big Bang n/t

[SDjack]

14. Maybe Ryan will hookup with a "R" for the 2016. Then this idiot is

pre-tattooed and ready for prime time.

[DonViejo]

15. "I'm hoping this opens some other doors in the entertainment business."

How much do you charge to haunt a house, Eric?

[Blue_In_AK]

16. He might have to get that worked into another tattoo some way.

I've seen people do that with tattoos they've regretted.

[HopeHoops]

17. $15K for a $70 tattoo? WTF? He's far dumber than he looks.

And those Chinese characters on his neck say "I'm a fucking pig shit eating dumb ass."

He thinks it says, "I hate America and fuck virgins."

You're stuck with that one, asshole. Even laser surgery won't be able to remove that abomination (EVEN unto GOD).

On the plus side, some tattoo artist made a SHITLOAD off of that idiot. That's good. That's very good.

[yewberry]

20. Oh, gosh no, he *was paid* $15K to get the tattoo.

He didn't pay $15K.

[HopeHoops]

22. Oh. Wait. That's STILL dumb.

[RagAss]

18. Put a fucking helmet on this fucking loser.
