Idiocracy is where we live now
For the 34-year-old pediatric nurse, his body is a canvas, and the tattoos are all metaphors of his life. Along his left arm, there’s a tiger and cherry blossoms on his forearm, and a coy fish on his upper arm..."A lot of our patients have tattoos, so they’re not frowned on here. That’s why I’m here. I feel accepted. I like the way they feel with it.”
Ironically, he does immunizations for children. The tattoos are not only a calming mechanism for them, but some children tell him they want tattoos someday, despite wincing from a single shot he just administered.
So much for the bullstalin that his patients HAVE tattoos. Maybe their mothers do but the kiddies do not. And it may influence them to get them "they look COOOOL!" because he represents an authority figure.
Will sanity ever return to this world? Where did all the grownups go?
And the funny thing is those people with tattoos look down on those without tattoos for being “square”, “not with it”, “not unique like all the rest of us”.
They have their own prejudices.
I see the biohazard warning symbol. Will he body be destroyed along with medical waste when he finally perishes?
