Atlas Shrugged

A couple of weeks back I saw a guy with a map of the world tattooed onto his upper back. The first thing I thought was “Mercator projection? What a douche!” Then I wondered why someone would do that. In a recent conversation about tattoos, I brought the guy’s tattoo up:

I saw a guy with a map of the world on his back.

I had to explain that it didn’t cover the entire back, it was just on one side:

I saw a guy with a map of the world on his shoulder.

And then I got it:

I saw a guy with a map of the world on his shoulder.

It only took me a week or two to get it.



And on the Ayn Rand thing: she’s an ass. I got that one years ago.
