Know what, I never seen this. If I did I might have actually sent money. The only place that poor sap can get a job is in a tatoo parlor, he needs all the help he can get. Besides, what's so offensive about it?
Just need somewhere to store the pieces now! 
i think some of you may be missing the joke
"worked over" - that's funny!
Doesn't make a huge amount of difference to me, It's cheesy. If you don't like it, you should speak up. Erik will probably listen.
Since this one has been pulled, i do mean you should speak up about most anything that offends y'all
(cheesy southern drawl, y'all)
I completely fail to see the offensiveness in this. I hope Erik or whoever won't bow before every irony/humour resistent jester screaming "OFFENSIVE!!!" here...

Oooops, so it seems I'm the irony resistant person here... D'oh! ...or I'm just not lurking enough in the forums
I agree there has to be some point where it gets really pointless. Just like the censoring of Christmas in some places, hello, people, we have celebrated the birth of Christ(and called it Christmas) for over a millenium. Now several places like to refer to it as a non-specific winter holiday or whatever. to them!
to them!
I dont get it ? Theres no violence, no drug use,no sexualy content in this add what so ever whats the big deal? i dont see anything remotely offensive in it. Mate u need to relax....
...actually I feel a little offended by the lack of violence, drug use and sexual content therein...
I may have over-reacted. ;)
I know some Christians disapprove of tattoos because of the Bible saying that you shall not hurt the temple of the Lord(which is what your body is called in this verse), and tattoos can damage the body(as can smoking and such). But otherwise i don't seee anything else.
Just another reason not to mess with Russians...
I think the worse thing about it is that it just isn't funny. My mate Stacy is right, as a Christian, not to be impressed by the self mutilation of a fool. You can hardly call SB humourless either, he is one of the most fun people on here.
:-D
I'm glad Erik pulled this as I requested him to. I don't think Garry would ever actually tattoo someone as a punishment. Fischer...maybe.
