Trust us, we are over the blue-and-black dress saga, too. (So over it that we're not even going to humor yellow-and-white truthers and offer that as an alternate color option.) Our hands are tied on this one, though: An Austin man has tattooed the frustrating frock on his leg, the Daily Mail reports.
Tattooed piercer Daniel Howland, 24, received the tattoo on the inside of his calf in a 20-minute session at an Austin studio Friday, according to the Daily Mail. The tattoo uses blue and black ink because that is the actual color of #TheDress, so deal with it, and features the message “White and gold?”
Howland said of his new piece:
"I saw the dress as white and gold for a brief period when I was drinking. But then I looked at it again and it was definitely blue and black. That's why the tattoo is blue and black."
Nick York, the artist behind the tattoo — which makes permanent what would have otherwise been but another wisp of Internet ephemera, eventually and rightfully lost to the sands of both time and the Wikipedia entry on memes — inked the dress for free because he and Howland are coworkers, according to the report.
The original photo of the tattoo that Howland posted to Instagram had more than 850 likes as of Monday morning.
