Today is a very special day in the Treasure Island Media office; today our office pig, sometimes known as Bruce or Brit-PIG, is inducted into Paul Morris’ Marked Men!
Here’s what Bruce had to say about how he came to get the tattoo: “Paul sent a message to Liam asking Liam to design a logo for Viral Loads, which produced the cover we all know. I thought that the design was really hot. Liam decided he wanted to film someone getting the tattoo done, so we went to this place Happy Sailor Tattoo. In the end the man that we had lined up didn’t show, so I decided I would get the tattoo instead.”
Bruce altered the text to read in English instead of the original Latin, “The Latin text didn’t mean anything to me, so instead I had the artist write ‘Wise enough to play the fool.’ The idea of the fool is significant to me, as it has been a part of how I’ve lived my life. When I was younger I played the role of Feste, the Fool in Twelfth Night.”
For Bruce the tattoo is the formalization of a time of his life spent with Treasure Island Media. Having embraced his sexual identity long ago, the tattoo is a milestone in his life. “People are concerned about how permanent tattoos are, but I’m not a big believer in regret. I look back and I move on. It’s nice to see these markers of where we’ve been and how far we’ve progressed.”
Welcome to the stable of Marked Men, Bruce!

Great tatt idea Bruce….love the “Feste” connection….and it looks fuckin great
Loved it all being filmed by Liam too. Kind of was the icing on the cake for me
No doubt
Well tying something from my past into something in the present is always a good thing. Feste was a sick fuck like me so it kind of worked!
Congratulations! I look forward to seeing ur films. Paul has great taste in men. Do you think we will ever get to find out who Paul is? All the mystery is exciting though, he is a pro at advertisement for sure. Again Congrats!
Congratulations. Your sex life will get even better.
It’s pretty damn good as it is…. Any improvement on this will be fucking amazing! But yeah, Proud to be a marked man!! Never had myself down for joining a cult, but officially being one of Paul’s army of dirty fuckers gives me the biggest of grins!!
