Today, I was on my way to CP by the Metro. At the Kashmiri Gate Station, this guy got in, stood right next to me and flashed this muscular arm with a long tattoo on it. I couldn’t help but scrutinize. It had a nondescript picture which was half covered by his sleeve. Below it was written
GIRLS ARE NOT FROD.
THEY HAVE ONLY

Does it make any sense to you? What is ‘frod’? Fraud? Or as ‘So Long and Thanks for all the Fish’ says, some mint fresh but very bad slang word? But above all, I just can’t figure out why anyone would want to have those words permanently imprinted on their body. Perhaps this statement means a lot. Or else, why would he go through the painful process of getting more than thirty letters tattooed on his arm? Pity, I just don’t get the point.
