I love language, especially slang. Today I was wearing a short sleeved tee shirt and jeans, so everyone was looking at the tattoo on my arm. More than usual, people were commenting on it.
Young woman: Hey, nice half sleeve.
(translation: Excuse me, nice tattoo that goes from your shoulder to your elbow)
Appropriate response: Thank you.
Young man, walking slightly behind me:
Hey, that ink is sick!
(translation: Excuse me, but your tattoo is really nice!)
I also replied "thank you" to him. Can you imagine saying thank you to someone who says, "That ink is sick!"? I laugh just thinking of it.
Well, I'm gonna go download some sick music on my iPod and upload some photos to my blog. Later!
