Pen & Ink shares the story behind Joshua Mohr's tattoo of the New Mission Theater marquee, which he got after finishing up his novel “Damascus”:

And here's the real thing:

First, I want to know what kind of unadulterated badass gets that permanently adhered to his arm. Second, this photo comes from a tumblr known as “fuck yeah burritos,” which I highly encourage anyone with a casual interest in gawking at tubes of calories to follow.

In response to our previous post on Sutro tattoos still being rad, Geoff G. decided to throw his SF-centric quarter-sleeve into the mix.  Considering its expansive coverage of local landmarks (Sutro, Palace of Fine Arts, Transamerica Pyramid, Giant's Logo, Golden Gate Bridge, Coit Tower, and walls of fog), and the fact it just looks sick, I'm going to have to go ahead and declare Geoff winner of the SF tattoo game.  I mean, pretty much the only thing that could be done to up the ante at this point is getting a giant portrait of Dirty Harry on your back, a cable car climbing up your ass crack, the Rice-A-Roni logo on your forehead, an IT'S-IT on each of your butt cheeks, or tattooing the San Andreas fault on your dick—all of which may or may not have negative effects on your sex life.  In short, nice job Geoff.

Not only did a man in the Mission have this tattoo, but he was proudly showing it off to a crowd of NYE revelers.  I have no idea if this is some post-post-ironic statement against the Platt Amendment or merely a penis joke, but it's a sign that 2011 is off to a good start.
