Brittanybunny 1,494 Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 How many of us here have tattoo(s)? I got my first one a few years back (with an interesting story) so when my cousin passed away, everyone that ever received a card or something with a signature from him got a tattoo of his signature, i had a whole letter from him and wanted to get my first tattoo (i had already thought of getting one a few days after he died) and began designing, i wanted mine to be more than just a signature, i wanted it to be special, we were both irish so i did a big clover with his signature in the middle of it, he taught me how to play mario so i put the mario power ups around the clover, along with a painbrush because he taught me art. i still need it colored I plan to get another in the future in honor of my grandpa who died this year, because we loved eating LAYS chips and taught me how to play golf im gonna try and draw something creative.

Brittanybunny 1,494 Posted July 16, 2018 Author Share Posted July 16, 2018 I dont know about the meat, i mean I guess its very similar so i wouldnt be surprised, the guy i went to had his own business in his house but he was well known enough for actually doing great tattoo portraits of any person and tattoo companies hated him for it, i got mine on my side which is one of the most tender places, and it hurt so bad Link to comment
KozmoFox 5,644 Posted July 16, 2018 👮 Moderator Share Posted July 16, 2018 I have several! I love video games and anime and they have become massive parts of my life due to the people I've met through them, and my overactive imagination making me feel close to them, so they are essentially all centered around that except for like, two. I have: A dark souls tattoo Two bioshock tattoos An assassins creed tattoo A pandora hearts tattoo A homestuck tattoo (Some people will probably cringe at that but I give 0 fucks) A vine tattoo Soon I will have in addition to those, a memorial tattoo for my dog, and I reaaaaaally want to get the sleeve Seth Gecko has in From Dusk Till Dawn, which is actually not the first place I saw it: the main character of Countdown Vampires also has it which is an obvious reference, and even though it wasn't a greaaaat game I still played it for thousands of hours in my childhood and is stuck in my mind as a nostalgia thing, and the sleeve is just outright super rad so. I might also get a shovel tattoo in homage to Kurumi from Gakkou Gurashi. This is one of the main reasons I'll probably never post pics with anything I do; if ever they will be cropped to the gills. I'm easily recognizable by anyone who knows me at all, at like a GLANCE Link to comment

SJC Omorashi 1,550 Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 I've often considered getting a tattoo. Although i'm not sure there's anything i'd like to have on my body for the rest of my life. Link to comment

I said the same thing my whole life, the only thing i regret is where i got it, since its on my side and the side of your torso is one of the top sensitive places, it is worth it though, i like wearing a bathing suit in summer and showing off how nice it is since its always hidden by a t shirt Link to comment
randomkath 349 Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 I have one Tattoo on my thigh. Some calligraphy I designed a few years ago. I got it just before I left home, to piss off my parents. It expresses my utter disdain for their religious belief system. But unlike other people who got tattoos for this specific purpose, I don't regret it at all. Because it was done by a skilled artist, I still like the motive, and I'm over 30 now... and still want to piss off my parents. The wife tends to lose rings, and I never wear any, so we are getting our weddings bands tattooed. Already have an artist picked out for that, an old friend of hers. There are no more plans for any ink beyond that. And may I just say: I'm heavily into women who are all tatted up. That shit is immensely attractive. Link to comment

Janiseguchi 74 Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 I don't have any yet. But I have been wanting to get some. I have two special ones I want to get. One for my grandfather and another for my friend who was like a sister to me. I also have some video game related ones I want. I definitely want to get the Triforce. Link to comment
Brittanybunny 1,494 Posted July 22, 2018 Author Share Posted July 22, 2018 That sounds cool! Ik im still terrified to get my colored because i got mine in a sensitive area, but i hope to one day get it finished Link to comment

If you managed the outline, there’s nothing to worry about ? Link to comment

I barely managed, the guy had to go over a few lines because i was shaking so much, it still looks nice though, but ik the colors will make it beautiful Link to comment
Brandie 177 Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 I have 4 and want to get one more when I have some spare moola. The butterflies on my ankle hurt a lot. The other ones didn't hardly hurt at all. Link to comment
Guest Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 I really like them and want some, but I have no idea what I would get. I like the idea of sleeves because I can hide them easily for work but I also really want something on my hands... Maybe someday! Link to comment
wd70 14 Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 +1 for ring tattoos. I’m not one for jewelry and work in construction where something like that could easily become a hazard. Otherwise have almost full sleeves. The advice I’d give to anyone considering ink would be don’t overthink it. Avoid anything that covered up for an interview or funeral and just get something fun. If your worried that one day you’ll be old and look back on it and regret, consider yourself lucky that that’s your biggest problem Link to comment

I’m not one for jewelry and work in construction where something like that could easily become a hazard. Anecdote: I used to work in a machine shop (I know, I know, probably the most stereotypical job for a butch woman ever) and heard all the usual horror stories of fingers getting taken off by rotating machinery. Never saw any of that. What I did see, however, was a 7' 300 lbs mountain of a man (looked like a pro wrestler, really), reduced to tears, because his wedding band got too friendly with the chuck of his lathe. Gold is soft. Tool steel isn't. Had to drive him home, then explain to his wife what happened, because he was still crying like a five-year-old and couldn't string together a complete sentence. I'm 100 % in favor of ring tattoos. Double for getting your wedding bands tattooed. And I'm completely aware that tattoos are for life, while relationships very often are not. Maybe the prospect of someone taking a FREAKING LASER to the sensitive flesh of your finger will encourage you to put a little more effort into your marriage. ? Link to comment
youromofantasy 136 Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 I have two! I have "LUMOS" tattooed on the inside of my right wrist (in the Lumos font, of course), with the three-star design from the corner of each page above it (Harry Potter, for those that don't know). I got it done in Seattle, my favorite city, on my thirtieth birthday. I have "Light up, light up, as if you have a choice" tattooed on my right foot (lyrics from Snow Patrol's Run). There is a story the singer of the band tells about how he was frustrated that they weren't getting more popular and one drunken night he fell down some stairs and injured himself quite badly. He wrote "Run" not too long after that and it was a big success. It's about coming up from hard times and letting the words "light up, light up" serve as a beacon for me, as they did for him. Sense a theme here? ? I have more planned. A puzzle piece, not only because I am autistic but because jigsaw puzzles are a special interest of mine. And my dog's pawprint. I took a print of it right before she passed so I could have it done sometime. We had a really special bond. alexxistarr 1 Link to comment
alexxistarr 18 Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 I actually have four! I have a bee on my wrist, a Panic! at the Disco tattoo on my sternum (think the LA Devotee symbol), the words "You are what you love, not who loves you," on my thigh (a Fall Out Boy lyric), and Bigfoot right above the crook of my elbow. I have a lot of plans for tattoos, specifically sleeves. I want my left arm to be nature themed and my right arm to be space themed. On my upper right arm, I'm going to give Bigfoot an environment as a half-sleeve, though I'm not sure what I want for the bottom half of my arm. I also think it's worth noting that I want a little portrait of my cat on my thigh, though, getting that is a little ways off. I absolutely love tattoo talk, I think they're so interesting!

Brittanybunny 1,494 Posted August 30, 2018 Author Share Posted August 30, 2018 Once i get my current one colored, im thinking of getting one of a lays potato chip bag with a golf hat on top, a golf club leaning against it and a pair of glasses, and underneath it will be the words “i am fighting, i am not giving up, i love you” in polish for my grandpa who died a few days after valentines day because last time i ever got to talk to him when he was sick, he told me he wasnt gonna stop fighting against his illness Link to comment

repertoire 15 Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 I have a boatload of ink; I’ve got ink on my shins, calf’s, knees, back, chest and a sleeve. And believe me if it wasn’t for professional reasons, I’d have my neck and head covered too Link to comment
