There are lots of jokes on the internet about movies, or characters, or TV shows that turned someone gay. Submitted for the approval of the queer community, may I present to you: Wayne's World.
Friday the 13th tattoo specials are as American as Sailor Jerry, and Friday the 13th tattoos have carved out a similarly reverent place in tattoo history. Tattoo historians credit artist Oliver Peck with "creating" this tattoo holiday, citing his 1996 24-hour tattoo party, where he tattooed as many "13" tattoos as possible. (If we hadn't been children at the time, we so would have attended that party.) Even Peck acknowledges he was not the first to celebrate Friday the 13th as a tattoo holiday, and the aforementioned legend of American Traditional tattooing, Sailor Jerry, is credited with popularizing tattoos that turned "13" from a sailor's fear to a sailor's defiant good luck charm, a la the evil eye, with his "Lucky 13" series of flash.
