Stoned Lightning is an excellent slow pitch softball team name. It's like a beer league with a better chance of someone getting nailed in the face by a softball but feeling good about it.

I need to find a decent beer league. This is the only way i can see myself playing sports, if i get to be all Arty Lange about it.

The pic is also very similar to the 4th panel in [url="https://m.assetbar.com/achewood/uuaftZZMW"]this strip[/url]. Credit to you for pointing out the reference, but "got to reuse"? Do people say Coppola "got to reuse" Pacino in Godfather II?

It was and still is trendy to subjugate things into one's own culture, and the swallow tattoos are but one of many examples.
I believe the swallow tattoos were originally things of sailors (as were pea coats, another hiply subjugated item). I guess nautical stuff is cool to copy? The next hip items that all the kids will be into: scurvy, gay sex (for the men), mal de debarquement, and being isolated with the same group of people for weeks/months at a time.
