Blog Guy, I really love that actress Julia Roberts. I think she’s so cool that I got a huge honking tattoo of her on my chest. Do you want to write about me?
Not unless you get about 80 more of them. Then you could match this newspaper vendor in Chile, who already has 82 of them and plans to get more.
Wow! He has 82 Julia Roberts tattoos?
Yep, all of them inspired by scenes from “Erin Brockovich.” I imagine if he twirls around really fast, it would be like watching the entire movie, only, you know, without Albert Finney in it.
But if I know your weird imagination, Blog Guy, there’s something more than just those tattoos that amuses you about this.
Indeed. If there’s a God in this world, one day Julia Roberts will be shooting a movie in Valparaiso, Chile, and she’ll wander off the set to buy a newspaper, and…

I am curious BG…. what WOULD happen if Julia wandered off to buy a newspaper in Chile?
Now that’s what I call a true fan…
Spin, I agree. The chest hair coming out of her face is a bit much; more like “I Was A Teenage Werewolf.”
unca: are your neighbors still living in Leave it to Beaver Land? Entirely possible I have tattwos. As in two tattoos:)
Icky!
And this is how Chile follows up the rescue of all those guys from the mine. Way to go Chile, that’s just awesome.
U sure they are tattoos.. some of them look like charcoal sketches to me…
Thanks, Onedoor. So my blog readers are now comparing how many tattoos they have. Boy, the folks who analyze my demographics will be so happy to see that….
He’s either unmarried or his wife is not jealous at all.
Now, let me finish off the story. He meets up with Julia Roberts and he doesn’t recognise her. They become infatuated, then fall in love. Then complications arise when paparazzi discover the two together at his place. At one point they even photograph him in his underwear (also covered by J. Roberts faces) while he opens the door after the doorbell rings. They fight. They make up (and out) and we are then told that they’ll soon become mama and papa! Hell this could be a movie…
…oh wait. Have I been outdone again!? Damn Hugh Grant!
Is now a good time to mention I have a tattoo of Baz on my back? I do so love that Mona Lisa smile of his.
E.
Very good, Malteser. Yeah, there are so many great outcomes, not just the one where Julia goes to buy a newspaper and totally freaks out.
One of my other favorites is that it turns out the guy suddenly remembers the movie he loved was “There’s Something About Mary,” and that he had intended to get 82 tattoos of Cameron Diaz….
Egeria and BG, nice comments you too
I would love to get a tattoo, something along the lines of my old military units’ mottos. But I can hear Mrs. Doc’s reaction now: “You are not the man I married.”
egeria FTW!
I have four tattoos. Yes one of them is airplane related.
What I want is someone who has tattoos of Kate Middleton.
I just have one, and I soooo want to get another one… no, its not gonna be a JR tattoo.. No, sir, no no no no no no!
@E: beware, he’s no mona lisa..
Oh I realize that fwd, boy do I ever realize that. But hey, the best part of my Baz tattoo is if I move in a certain way, I can make his eye wink.
Here’s lookin’ at you, Baz!
E. (who needs a chiropractor now…)
Why is her face not copyrighted? She could be making many many pesos every time this guy takes off his shirt.
BG: you post a story about a man with 82 tattoos (zombies, toilets, rockets and pancakes) and you think it is the OE readers who need analyzing?????
Exactly. Why on earth would they keep coming back?
How many of the 82 actually even remotely resemble Ms Roberts ? Looking at the picture before reading the story, I thought one of them was Patrick Swayze…
The one on his left arm looks like a flesh munching zombie Julia.
That’s as opposed to those vegan zombies?
Oo!! Now that is an interesting food for thought… vegan zombies…
