UPDATE – Hoax Revealed – Dutch Woman’s Tattoo of 152 Facebook Friends’ Profile Pics on Left Arm Was Only Temporary

UPDATE as of 4:30 pm 6/8/2011: This story has turned out to be another example of good natured viral advertising which became too successful to stand up to public scrutiny. Apparently the maple bacon talking dog is a hoax too. In fact, every talking dog video has been a hoax. Thanks to Mike Jones for Snopesing me about this tattoo vid. – The full story is here.

Original Post From Earlier Today: This poor Dutch woman tattooed profile pics of 152 of her Facebook friends on her arm. In five years, none of us will remember Facebook, but this lady will have no trouble remembering the golden age of social networking every time she looks at the disfiguring tattoo covering her left arm.
