And the girls..who told them it was attractive to be so aggressive and...'fighty'? Ugh. Can't MTV do some better show, like some young people who are actually doing something with their lives apart from embarassing themselves, and refusing to grow up?Seriously.

Awesomefish of the Day: Kat Von D

I've been watching a lot of old Miami Ink on cable lately and have been supercrushing on Kat Von D.
She's today's Awesomefish and I must say; all husky voice and calm cool and collectedness, she makes me want to be a tattoo artist!...But that would never work out-I could never deal with the stress of maybe messing up someone's tattoo! Ergh. 
But yeah. She's talented, she's intimidating, she's interesting, and she's the Awesomefish of the Day.
