She tweeted a photo early Wednesday, later adding, "I'm thinking I shoulda got a tear drop instead!!! #THUGLIFE maybe next time." Orrr, we've got ideas. What if RIHpac went with, oh I dunno, a message from one of our pro-social campaigns on her knuckles instead?

If you're on Twitter and aren't following @KanyeWest, let me be first to tell you: You are missing out on THE FUTURE. The rapper turned fashion designer took to the social media platform yesterday to talk about his exciting new plans for the next few years. Top of his list?
