[2] Color contents are limited to the hues of the rainbow, commonly known via acronym ROYGBIV (Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, and Violet) and any colors and/or combinations that are created outside of ROYGBIV are up to the sole interpretation and artistic expression of the INKER.

[3] Industrial strength colors suitable for printers’ ink or automobile paint

[4] Under the “Stay Puft Marshmallow Man Doctrine,” the INKEE is solely responsible for the manifestation of proposed Artwork, whether conveyed to INKER verbally, non-verbally, telepathically, and/or asleep through a vehicular dream.

[5] Altered states include, but not limited to, those achieved by: alcohol, any drug taken within the Schedule 1 – 5 category, any kind of episode that could be perceived as manic and/or depressed by an unlicensed medical professional, i.e. medical student or a holder of a trade license (plumbing, electrical, mechanical, etc.), or any mental illness and/or personality disorder that an INKEE has either self-prescribed or has been prescribed by a family member, friend, or co-worker.

[6] Any ARTWORK initiated within (3) hours and not completed under the local ordinance’s mandatory time for the cessation of alcohol sales, will receive a 15 percent discount upon completion.

[7] Lasting, enduring, indefinite, continuing, “will be there tomorrow and the next day,” persistent, genial but chronic, thusly, like a child but will never leave the home.

[8] To the best of its knowledge LATE NIGHT INK, INC. understands that the lasers used in tattoo removal are akin to the same lasers fired by the Millennium Falcon.

[9] In an effort of good faith in keeping customer relations amicable within the community, INKER would like to offer the contact to their Officer of Quality Assurance where any disgruntled INKEE is free and able to file a grievance, attached herein as Exhibit B.
