When You Wish Upon A Star...

From AllHeadlineNews.com:

An 18-year-old Belgian housewife said Tuesday she will sue a local tattoo parlor, where she got 56 star tattoos on her face instead of the three as she had originally asked for.

Kimberley Vlaeminck slept while being tattooed so as not to feel the pain. She woke up to see 56 stars all over the left side of her face at the parlor in the western town of Courtrai.

"I woke up when he was starting to tattoo my nose and I saw what he had already done. I counted 56 stars, it's frightening," Vlaeminck told the Flemish daily Het Laatste Nieuws, according to the Sydney Morning Herald.

Valeminck said she is unable to go out and show her tattooed face and plans to erase them through a costly laser procedure.

The tattoo artist, Rouslan Toumaniantz, said Vlaeminck asked for 56 stars on her face and was not asleep during the tattooing session. He said the complaint was prompted by her family's opposition to the tattoos.

We need tatoo rationing. Too many people who need tatoos and can not afford them. This girl is an example of the unfairness in the system. It's all the fault of the ink fat cats and politicians they have in their pockets. Tatoo Reform, I'm all for it.
