“I was targeted by a blogger via Jezebel.com who would like to see me out of business. The reason? I refused to tattoo her neck, as I regularly do when asked by a sparsely tattooed or un-tattooed customer. Where she really got it wrong is assuming that I refused her service for sexist reasons, even after I informed

Fantastic. You too.

Oh, no! Not topless pictures! Meanwhile, you're speaking to a woman who has been nude modeling since she was 18, has been the nude subject of 1 painting and went topless on the Main Street of her small Upstate New York city in the movie "Toxic Avenger Part 4".

I hope that she is raising children that

As an atheist, I don't mind Christ, but I f*@kin hate "Christians".

My thoughts exactly.

I think you're thinking of praying mantises?

I'm a Black woman, but grew up in a middle class to affluent white suburb in upstate New York, and this is the first time in hearing this story. I'm thirty four and can honestly say that I've learned more about slavery in the seventeen/eighteen years since I graduated high school than I learned in the preceding

She looks like a modest, fashion-oriented superheroine. I love it.

For what it's worth, he apologized:
