MARSHFIELD – A new bio lab\/tattoo parlor in central Vermont is now offering people the chance to throw some ink onto their DNA. The expensive procedure will allow customers to choose a design to be etched into the CRISPR<\/a> family of DNA sequences, ensuring that all future descendants will be born with identical tattoos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tattoo enthusiasts lined up around the block when DNInk opened last month, many eager to provide their unborn children with needle-free tattoo sleeves. Some balked at the $5000 price tag for the procedure, but the majority agreed that the field of genetic fashion manipulation is rightfully pricey, as it employs cutting-edge techniques and equipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Yeah, it’s a lot of money,” said Taye Bori, who recently added a bald eagle holding the US flag to the upper left arm of his entire future bloodline, “but you can’t get something like this done at a regular shop. You know coming in that you’re going to be paying a premium for inking your genes.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DNInk says that the most popular CRISPR tattoos are of the person’s own name, followed by either their date of birth, a quote about them, or both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“People want to be remembered,” says DNInk tattoo artist Hack Scratcher. “I did one yesterday that just said the client’s name with a colon afterward followed by the phrase ‘total badass.’ Two hundred years from now, his great-great-great-great-grandchildren are going to know his name.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is currently a wait of almost two years to have the procedure done, but for an extra two thousand dollars you can go in as a same-day walk-in if you can provide evidence that you have a chance of getting laid in the next 24 hours.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
