Hayes Regrets New Tattoo
Although Daniel Hayes loves both tattoos and Katy Perry, he has found that combining the two is not has amazing as he thought
For those not in the know, beloved English teacher Daniel Hayes recently got a new tattoo on his arm. This three-quarter sleeve tattoo depicts a myriad of inspiring quotes, images and colors. However, in a shocking turn of events, Hayes announced to his AP Language and Composition classes that he regrets this new tattoo, despite the months of planning that went into it. He apparently would have preferred the lyrics to Katy Perryâs âFireworkâ in Comic Sans along his arm.Â
âI love Katy Perry,â said Hayes, âI have since I was a wee little farm boy with only the radio and âI Kissed a Girlâ as company. Katy Perry is the only one I want a tattoo of. I guess it just took one wrong tattoo to realize what I really needed!Â
âThe lyrics of âFireworkâ speak to me so much more than meaningful quotes about the goodness of life. Just listen to this: âDo you ever feel, like a plastic bag.â Amazing. I feel like a plastic bag. Iâm telling you, this stuff is better than âcellar door.ââÂ
This shocking announcement has sparked a controversy among AP Lang students.
 âKaty Perry?â exclaimed Robyn Pilecki, â22. âWhat about Olivia Rodrigo? Hayes needs to get with the times.âÂ
Other students seem disturbed with Hayesâ outdated tattoo choices as well. As Vice President of the Student Body, Brantley Deady â21 has decided to begin a campaign to help change Hayesâ mind. âWe can all agree that Mr. Hayesâ original Katy Perry tattoo idea was stupid,â Deady said, âbut we can help him. Let us band together and pledge to help Mr. Hayes realize that a tattoo of Olivia Rodrigo next to a stop sign is just what he needs.âÂ
Join Deady and an undisclosed (but most definitely large) number of other Berkeley students in their quest by signing their petition on Change.org and donating to their GoFundMe page called âOlivia beats Katy 2k21: Save Hayz.âÂ
Hayes plans to remove the greats from his arm â Emerson, Thoreau, Whitman, Wilde, Picasso â in favor of the greatest: Katy Perry. Time is running out to help!Â
