ANCHORAGE, Alaska- An Alaska man who changed his name to Hostgator Dotcom said he wants to sell tattoo space on his body to get rid of his facial tattoo ads.

Dotcom, 32, who changed his name from Billy Gibby in 2009, said he wants to get rid of the company logos he had tattooed on his face to raise money for his five children, The Huffington Post reported Thursday.

The 32-year-old, who starting selling tattoo space on his face in 2007 for $1,000 to $300, before later dropping the price to $75, said he is willing to sell tattoo space on his body to raise money to remove his facial tattoos.

"I'm trying to get rid of the ones on my face," he said. "I regret them because I only did them because of my mental illness."

The man currently has 24 tattoos on his face representing various companies, including pornographic websites.

“I’m trying to get rid of the ones on my face,” he said. “I regret them because I only did them because of my mental illness.”

Mental illness? Another Obama voter. No doubt.

There are more and more weirdos making news. In his case, just getting publicity appears a strong motive. Media loves such types. I am just surprised the Soros ex-mistress scandal has not received more attention: she sues Soros, Soros sues her, a guy sues her for false rape charges.

A tattoo is an outward sign of an inner defect.

If he can get the tattoos removed, then they should be replaced by one saying “I’m stupid “ in the middle of his forehead. Where do we get these people?

Amen!

It used to be that a person with a tattoo was someone who didn't conform to trends or fads. They were different.

Nowadays, tattoo'd people all look alike, all follow the same trend and fad, i.e., lets look like jailed inmates and felons.

Also, let's narrow the pool of potential friends, associates, work, etc by getting inked. Getting hepatitis is also fun.

Kind of reminds me of Goldie Hawn from her "Laugh-In" Days:

Of course, Goldie was smart enough to leave her face alone, meaning even a "dumb blonde" was smarter than this dude.

I remember the “temporary tattoos” we used to get as kids in the 50s, in bubble gum packs, but they washed-off with soap & water. Freaked-out my parents the first time I walked in with an anchor on my face cheek. LOL.

It used to be that a person with a tattoo was either a sailor with a drinking problem or a carnival worker.

I guess I'm older than you.
