The Official Tattoo Thread

[allyjoy]

aw... you take the fun out of this

[Mr. Dylanja]

I was 100% half kidding, pleez go look at default thread...

[bmack86]

Me and my brother were talking to each other
'Bout what makes a man a man
Was it brain or brawn, or the month you were born,
We just couldn't understand

Our old man didn't like our appearance
He said that only women wear long hair

So me and my brother borrowed money from Mother
We knew what we had to do
We went downstairs, past the barber and gymnasium
And got our arms tattooed

Welcome to my life, tattoo
I'm a man now, thanks to you
I expect I'll regret you
But the skin graft man won't get you
You'll be there when I die
Tattoo

My dad beat me 'cause mine said "Mother"
But my mother naturally liked it and beat my brother
'Cause his tattoo was of a lady in the nude
And my mother thought that was extremely rude

Welcome to my life, tattoo
We've a long time together, me and you
I expect I'll regret you
But the skin graft man won't get you
You'll be there when I die
Tattoo

Now I'm older, I'm tattooed all over
My wife is tattooed too
A rooty-toot-toot, A rooty-tooty-toot-toot
Rooty-toot-toot tattoo too
To you

[allyjoy]

bravo!

[karecares]

my avi is on my back, above my butt to the bottom of my shoulder blade. she means hope in the hopeless got it after i got sick. also have a sunflower on the outside of my right ankle and a butterfly on the inside ankle of my left foot

[kroqken]

I think Jenna Bush should get a tattoo. A presidential daughter with a tattoo is a barrier that needs to be broken. John McCain's daughter Meghan has a tattoo on her foot.

[allyjoy]

now we know the real reason McCain lost

[Cheddar's Cousin]

These are the monkeys on my arm.

[karecares]

^^^^ very cute

[CalmerThanYou]

I take it back what I said about your week.

i knew as soon as it went up it was bad, but i didnt delete it. fuck it.

[disgustipated]

My newest. Should be getting another two to three hours of work this month.

[Calamity Jane]

That is seriously hideous.

Why would you put those colors on that tone of complexion?

This whole thread is a disaster of ugly proportions.

[sbessiso]

My best friend and I got one half each of the Hedwig tattoo

[Hannahrain]

My best friend and I each cut a heart-shaped patch out of our arms and had it grafted on to each other's open wound.

[sbessiso]

neato.

[Hannahrain]

We also traded spleens with no outside help using a rusted potato peeler, an ice pick, a flask funnel, six shoelaces, a darning needle, and one of those Japanese compressed pill towels. Best friendsies.

[boarderwoozel3]

Pffft. You needed the ice pick? Amateur.

[Hannahrain]

I'm not going to drink warm drinks while I'm autoextracting my spleen, you fucking pissbag. This isn't the back row of detention.

[BROKENDOLL]

OH MY GOD. Haahahhahahahaha. +437482 for awesome picture find.

Apparently, he's been hanging out at my friend's hosue and smoking their weed for the past couple weeks...???

KittKat, please enlighten me to the numeric system you follow in judging shit you find awesome. I mean, if I had a scale of my own, and it went to like 1,386,942, then you'ld actually suck. And, if say, the standard scale of 1-10 were being used then you'ld be like off the board, huh? (Wait. I might be on to something here!)

My best friend and I each cut a heart-shaped patch out of our arms and had it grafted on to each other's open wound.

Whew! Had I read this 5 minutes earlier, I'd be mopping up another spill instead of posting!

[sbessiso]

maybe nothing looks good on you because you're ugly

This isnt how we're gunna get our Dylanja pic!!!! You need to schmooze and flatter him

[BROKENDOLL]

Oh, shit! You have a flask funnel? I've been in search of one of those damn things! Filling my flask is like trying to thread a shoelace through a darning needle, I'm telling you! Please Hannahrain, do share!

[boarderwoozel3]

You're not supposed to drink any fluids in or around surgery. *Gestures toward the dunce cap and stool*

[Hannahrain]

I cut people up better when drunk. I've never even gotten a ticket.

[Backwater]

That is seriously hideous.

Why would you put those colors on that tone of complexion?

That's exactly what I was thinking.

[boarderwoozel3]

I dance better whilst under the influence, but have been cut off by club security twice. It was the same gay club both times, fuckers.

[Astrid]

I have this on my right wrist

i had a camp counselor who had that on her right wrist. how very peculiar.

[kroqken]

It is like an all knowing eye. It could be watching the detective.

[TommyboyUNM]

Just thought I'd share my ink with you guys since I have a fresh one.


This is my black & white arm (my right arm). I used to be real religious and this is proof. Lol. I like these tattoos even though I'm not even close to religious anymore.




This is an ambigram gone wrong. The artist decided to add some artistic flare to it and the word upside down looks like "paint" instead of "pain". I still know what it means, but WTF?! I had it drawn up perfectly.




This is my color arm (my left arm). I think this was about 6 total sessions.




These are cherry blossoms on the inside of my left arm. Probably the most painful session that I had out of all of my tatts. I got this in November of 2007.




This is the Zia symbol on the New Mexico state flag. It is on my right calf and I got it in August of this year.




And this is the piece I got today. "The Tourist" is a song that basically speaks to how I view life and try to live. That you should realize the beauty of things and stop to take a look around and savor what life has to offer. This is on my left calf.

Means "Banish the Infernal Cadence," I met a parisian guy while I lived in Indonesia in the middle of one of the large protests during the economic crisis... He handed me a sign that said this on it. Turns out it came from the langlois protests in the late 60s in paris... Ended up becoming one of my best friends... I finally got it done when I was in paris last year

I have been thinking about getting another one... But much smaller... I have wanted the muted posthorn for quite some time now.

What does it say right-side-up?
