Took off his shirt, showing a huge Mickey Mouse tatoo, and said "Copyright Infringment". You're doing life for a Mickey Tatoo? "No, I'm doing life because I tore The Disney Lawyer's arm off and beat him with" Or something to that effect.

All the rest are just the temporary ink outlines the tattoo artist applies before beginning work - they're not s'posed to look good! One way you can tell is that there's no skin redness on any of the others, and if you have (or have seen) a fresh tat, you know how red/swollen they can get! However, if that is the case, I don't understand why the guy has them all over already, unless the artist is just going to ink him non-stop until it's all done. Being temporary, the rough outlines wash off easily! And that rocketship on the knee is gonna hurt!

I thought that they looked like healed outlines of the tattoo.
