Bar Code Tattoos

Do bar code tattoos make a statement about our consumer-driven culture or our worth in this dehumanizing world? All I know is that this trend is fug. When they first hit the scene, they were generally hidden at the nape of people's necks, but these days, any body part is up for sale. Now that everyone's got their own UPC code, are these "unique" tatts really worth the investment anymore?
