When you get your last name, gang affiliation, or band’s name tattooed on your back, the subtext is always “I’m awesome” anyway, so I can hardly fault someone for cutting through the bullshit and getting right to the point.
I can, however, fault them for spelling it wrong. This guy managed to get the one gothic-lettering back tattoo that shouts loud and clear, “I AM IN NO WAY AWESOME.” I mean, I can’t beleive it.
What? No, that’s how you spell it. “Beleive.” I even remember the rule: “I before E, except in beleive.” Right? Right. Otherwise I wouldn’t have gotten this:

I’m not sure if it’s worse that the guy got “awsome” tattooed on him or that him and the artist both couldn’t spell AWESOME….
Awsome
Aw”some\, a. Same as Awesome.

That is horrible…. When I got my wrist tattoo that says “Faith, Hope, Laugh, Live”. I must have check the spelling a million times and asked everyone the check the spelling… I knew they were spelled right but I didn’t want to be misspelled…
My boyfriend points out that it looks like “Jim Awsome”.. which I kind of like.
I have a mispelled tattoo and it sucks, I feel like an idiot every time I look at my left wrist. bad new
the W in awesome almost looks like a M also.
“Jim Amsome”
Maybe he should just change his name…
You know, at least the girl didn’t drop the e too. I’d have no way to interpret “Belive”
I feel bad enough when I misspell on a comment thread.
At least the “Awsome” guy can just keep a shirt on at all times, and the “Beleiver” gal can wear her hair down.
Look at the 2 Ms. They’re very different. like one is transposed and a bit thicker. Poor blighter!
He should just get “at speling” tatooed underneath it. At least that way it would be funny.

Good show, good show.
[...] isn’t funny. At all. It’s not a mistake. It’s not a misguided effort. It’s not a brain-damaged “oops!” It’s utterly intentional, [...]
If I were the dude I’d change my name to Jin Awsomie just to clear up the confusion.
[...] were about to write this off as a silly spelling error, similar to some we’ve seen around here before. But when our own Stephen came across a second “Chi-tonw” [...]
@Jodi
you’ve also misspelled “misspelled” Jodi. Oh the irony.
Sadly, there is still no “spell check” option on the epidermis.
