I've recently been checking out a lot of dropkick murphys stuff and I was wondering...what exactly is "OI"? it's also a genre of punk rock from what my friend told me....any answers are well appreciated.

It's a bunch of whiny little bitches with giant ovaries who complain about their girlfriends leaving them.

what about OI makes it different soundwise and lyrically? also, what're some bands that would fall under that category?

OI stands for Omega Iota, a fake fraternity my friends and I have

And I may or may not have something related to this tattooed on my body.

Actually it's not. That would be ovary-rock.
