Steven: The bottom 4 images are from outside Japan. You are right about the 2nd one -- it's from the US, but where in the US? You are also correct about the 3rd and 4th ones -- they are from Thailand and Australia. katie: You can find the DC subway map tattoo by searching for “only in London”!

I read this:

It’s also fun to see what comes up when you do an “only in […]” search using other place names. Can you guess where each of the images below are from?

Did you?

And the small sign says "$1 bill changer". This hillbillie scene clearly takes place in the US. - The kid with the snake wash is a popular image and to my memory it was taken in Thailand or Malaysia. - Lastly, again the English. Roadsigns in English... And it looks like Australia. To have a quick Google Image search as basis for an article clearly seems like you are running dry of things to write about.

I live in the area and use it regularly, but I'd never heard of this tattoo! I couldn't figure out the wording of the image search you used to find it. It'd be interesting to meet the person who had it done. That subway map is DC’s! I live in the area and use it regularly, but I’d never heard of this tattoo!
