I just had an interesting idea. I have been looking at getting another tattoo for a long time I was thinking because im an al-coholic, perhaps I should get something in relation to al (I always like to get things that are important to me).

I was thinking along the lines of a poodle, something from one of his parodies, anything. Im thinking of a few designs but if anyone else out there wants to share some ideas that would be sweet.

Well the obvious one would be a spatula tattooed on your arm.

Spatula would be good, but what about a twinkie wiener sandwich?

How about just a nice

27

Always tasteful and appropriate, and shouldn't be too painful a tat to have inked, either.
"Weird Al" has a charisma that's all his own. The awkward, the misshapen, the socially inept flock to his banner.

It's actually called "Spatula City" There is a song about it on the UHF soundtrack and other stuff album, and there is a short scene in the UHF movie

Yeah, that is spatula city, but the song I am referring to is TWAS theme tune, which says

The very next year he met a dental hygenist with a spatula tattooed on her arm

And yes, a TWS would be great, but it might look too much like a regular hot dog- a spatula is perfect, as it is very obvious, and an actual spatula tattoo is mentioned in an Al song.

Yeah, but if you get a Spatula tatooed on your arm, Al will just lose your number and never call again.

You could get a tatoo of Al, Bermuda, Jim and Steve on your ankles. Nah... who would do that?

i don't know how detailed you want your tattoo. but maybe if you wanted to include some stuff of most of al's stuff. you might want to try something like the cover of werid al yankovic, with all that stuff. it would hurt because of all that extra detail, but on the bright side you wouldn't need another 50 something tattoos. or you could just have little pictures of objects/people from poodle hat. like al standing with a mic on a stand, accordion in hand, trash can in background and whatever else you want. or you could have al just like the greatest hits cover, with him in a square. you could place a 27 on the accordion, so it's there but something that is kinda hidden. so if someone looks closer they can see the icons you choose to use. hope that helps, if not, i am sorry. maybe someone else can suggest something you were thinking. good luck and hope it doesn't hurt!
