A little story from the studio days:
A wedding couple, and both sets of parents, came in when we first opened. Both sets of parents were not in the right mindset to enjoy a first lesson. Very conservative! The bride was clearly NOT conservative. Had a tattoo of a Violet on a vine from the top of her foot to her mid calf.
I have ice breaker jokes, but this was too easy. I spoke to the bride's mom and said, "I bet you don't care for that.." pointing at the tattoo. She said she absolutely did not. I responded, " If you had taught her to wash better, that wouldn't have grown there."
She was the only one not to laugh. We had a pretty good time. I'm sure we would have gotten 5 stars if reviews existed back then.
(not the real person, but pretty close to identical tattoo)
