“I majored in Anthropology in college, and for my senior project I had to do a paper or project on material culture in the modern world. I chose to do mine on Russian prison tattoos. I was not what you’d call a “motivated” student, (I finished 22nd from the bottom in my class) so it got to be a couple days before it was due and I hadn’t even started. There was no way I was going to be able to write a 20 page paper in a couple days, so I opted for the project instead. What arose in the next couple of days has become the stuff of legend at my school, and the professor still uses my video as an example in class. I decided to videotape myself getting an authentic Russian prison tattoo on my ass. Words fail to describe the experience, so I’ll let the video do the talking. I got an A.” (raulduke)

Now you’ve heard the story, go see the video. I’d say this is the funniest thing I’ve seen on the internet in months.
