Bro, my little brother draws better than that. Bro, it's only $20. I wouldn't let you tattoo my dog. Absolutely not. Bro, that machine looks broken. Kid, all I got is $5. Can you tattoo me? Bro, you're my first customer. Give me a big scary dragon. Say less. Kid, why is your hand shaking? Bro, trust the process. No, I asked for a dragon that's a pregnant gecko. Bro, it's a baby dragon. Get back tier, you little pump. Get back tier. You turned my dragon into a lizard. Bro, it was only $5. Look what this kid did to my arm. Wait. We're going viral? Bro, I want one of your ugly tattoos. I'll pay 500 for a terrible dragon. Bro, I'm about to be rich. Bro, you got rich off my ugly tattoo? Bro, you're my business partner now. Would you get this tattoo for $500? Comment yes or no.
