Conan, Sona, & Gourley Consider Getting Tattoos | Conan O'Brien Needs A Friend
would you guys ever get a. tattoo ever I bring this up. because this is just interesting to me. when I was a kid you wouldn't see you. just never saw a tattoo and unless it. was like a Navy guy well what I'm saying. is when you did see a tattoo it was. quite like stunning yeah tattoos. traditionally started in I I do think it. started in the Navy and I think it. started I could be wrong not that it. started but um it was picked up by I.
think British Sailors I could be wrong. but I read a book recently that was. talking about Captain Cook roaming. around and that it British Sailors saw. uh they went they'd visit different. islands and they'd see the people of. those islands that had tattoos and it. got them interested in it but it used to. be this almost a sign of your I'm an. outcast or I'm part of this Elite group. that doesn't fit with the rest of. society was quite shocking if you saw a. tattoo and now it's the opposite I mean.
now to see for someone not to have a. tattoo would be kind of crazy that's why. I thought no I don't have one I would. have thought you'd be a candidate for. having tattoo I know so one of tax. friends works at this like Beauty like. company and they needed somebody who. didn't have tattoos so that they can. make a video where they show how they. put the products on and then take it off. so I I had I did it because I don't have. any tattoos and it was really weird and. they didn't want a tattoo on because. they thought it would it would probably. I don't know if it would be distracting.
so for like especially if the tattoo. said uh products. suck why would someone have that de too. you know that would be the that's hurt. me a lot in getting commercial work. where I'm bare chested is because I have. like three tattoos yeah that's why that. say commercials blow yeah um believe the. opposite of what I say the system. yeah I I want I mean I would get one I. think my great grandma had a tattoo. really great grandma she was in the Navy.
was she not she was she was crazy she. when you go to Jerusalem cuz there's an. Armenian quarter one of the things that. people do is they get a tattoo of the. cross on their wrist and and and medik. my great grandma she went and did that. she got it so she had a tattoo which was. crazy I thought I'd get a tattoo and try. heroin right before I die wait are you. being serious yeah no are you being. serious why not you know what why not no. be I don't get I mean the heroin of. course we've all thought that oh um the.
reason but the tattoo is somewhat. painful and then you you're on heroin oh. that's true but if you but isn't the. idea that I mean why would there's never. been anything I wanted on my body that I. wanted there 10 years like I'd have a. phantom menace tattoo if if I you know. what you know what I'm saying like if. you get what you're into on a tattoo. nothing stays with me that long you know. I think they're I like I have t has a. lot of friends who have tattoos and it's. cool like they're just like I just want. a tattoo and they just go and get a tto. tattoo and it looks I like the way it.
looks Eduardo tattoo four of them four. of them okay do you want to talk to that. uh yeah I I got them when I when I was. when I turned 18 I I started tatting my. body up but um there's people like Sona. said like just just artwork their their. body is a canvas now you know it's also. interesting I've I I talked to some. people you know some people. have clearly chosen very carefully but. um um I was talking to one woman who she.
had she said oh yeah when I started I. just let people do whatever they wanted. on one arm like because my friends were. getting into it but just learning and. you could tell like they were more just. a to-do list yeah literally it was. things like eggs get. eggs uh dry cleaner um but no and then. um you could see the other arm was more. artistically figured out but she was. very relaxed about it to me it's almost. how people carry it which is if they're. super if they're incredibly relaxed. about it like I don't I don't think I.
would do one on my face well of no do. you know but there's people who do tats. on their face but I I also don't have. like I don't have a real job you know. what I would do if I got one on my face. I'd do. glasses and I would. constantly say um i' got oh man I can't. read that I got to get my glasses and. they say you've got your glasses on I go. fooled. you there's people who tattoo eyebrows. like to fill them in like permanent. makeup makeup uh lip liner what tattoos.
do you have uh they're all on my arm. it's all lettering different words and. Conan. blows this product. sucks play you got. any no I I think tattoos are hey take it. easy you don't just. shout you know what's so funny suddenly. you were like testifying in front of the. Senate I went BL what about. you a yes or no. question I don't have any tattoos but I. think I'm glad you lowered your voice by.
the way I think they're a little easy I. I think they're a little easy because. it's like well look look it's if you. love something you get a tattooed on you. right okay that just happens once all. right fine if it's real if you really. love something you would write it on on. yourself on Sharpie marker every day. that's dedication you know it's easy to. get a tattoo oh oh the P you know I'm. just saying like every day you know. drawing The Punisher skull or something. on your chat did this regularly school. that's a real thingone regular may not.
when I was younger when I was younger I. may not stuff on myself all the time did. you draw The Punisher on your. chest did you it's a yes or no question. Senator where no one could see it too I. mean I mean not that no one saw your. chest but you knew it was there yeah I. knew it was there wow you drew the. Punisher on your chest with magic marker. I'm just saying it take takes real. dedication this dedication yeah it also. takes dedication if you really want to. drive your car build one from scratch.
every day every day and then drive it oh. anyone can own a car but if you really. care about cars you keep 9,000. components and you assemble one every. day if you love something like I love. the Punisher you draw it on your body. every day show us your drawing Today. show us your drawing today no no it's. it's faded since uh should get a tattoo. you know I I don't even know what get. just to get yourself out of your comfort. zone cuz I feel like people are like.
Conan wouldn't have a tattoo you'd be. like look at this yeah check this out. yeah and then it's just a tattoo of Dick. Van djk oh which by the way I you know. what I say that like and that is not a. put down at all because I rever Dick van. djk and he was one of my role models so. that's kind of would probably just be. Dick Van that would make a lot of sense. you came in with a sleeve of your. comedic icons you know there'd be like. Bob newart and the Three Stooges and you. know that's a cool that's a cool certain. St if you could pick between image or.
words you had to get one tattoo I would. do uh image I think because I you know. words um what do they mean you have to. explain it a lot yeah you have to be. able to read yeah forget it forget it um. yeah uh my what if I got like words and. you looked at it it was like a a frown. is just a smile turned upside down con. in but in real hardcore lettering or. just yeah real hardcore goth.
lettering a you know a smile is just a. frown turned upside down when life gives. you lemons make. lemonada it's like in Gothic lettering. and there's little blood dripping from. it yeah I I would I don't know I'm not. ruling tattoos out I'm not either I. think it's it would be something I'd do. when I was older like figuring you know. this is the last chapter of my life I'll. stick with this let's go for it yeah. yeah when is the last chapter of our Liv.
next week um Jesus that book. sucked it's a Nolla I got news for you. short St crappy B this is the last. chapter I know certainly this is just. book one NOP that's it Conan oh and then. he got a podcast.
