FUCK YOU DAD
April 4, 2025Hey welcome back to another installment of Chris’s deep thoughts. A lot has changed since my last blog post. The biggest obviously is becoming a Dad and living in Colombia. Acclimating to raising my son to be a man has been by far the toughest things I’ve ever done. Pretty conflicting as a person that does not like telling people what to do and in an industry that is the ultimate freedom to do whatever you want. Im now in a position of telling a person what to do everyday and guiding him haha. Granted hes got complete freedom of doing whatever the hell he wants (within reason) that won’t piss me hell off. It didn’t start off sunshine and rainbows but we’re in a really great place now and has been the most rewarding thing I’ve ever done. Reflecting at the end of the day on having great day with him has been so rewarding. I don’t think I’ve ever felt that in tattooing in my entire life. The reward can’t be explained. I love tattooing but I’ve never had that feeling after finishing a cool piece to completion or finish a painting I’m working on. Thats just filling in some bullshit ego void all us beings have. I figure id have a lot to write going on this crazy journey the past 6 months but its too much to write. If you get tattooed or reach out to me I’ll tell you all about it. Living in Colombia has shifted a lot of perspective on life and beings. Forever my wife and I will have a permanent attachment to that beautiful country. I would not be in the place I am if it weren’t for my amazing wife. She’s a very special and amazing person to watch become a mom. A true gift. We’re in a great place right now. Im trying to cherish my forced preschool bus stop hugs with my son until he’s telling me “FUCK YOU DAD” in a few years. Hopefully my next blog I’ll talking more about tattooing and not my forced drawn Superman portraits of my kid. One last thing I’ve watched every super hero movie in Spanish these past 6 months like 5 times each. From Superman to the Avengers. All of them. Everyday. If you’re an adult and into this shit you’re a fuckin Loser. I don’t get it im sorry.
