Scooter, dear heart, specifically a classic Vespa with the shifter on the left grip. If the tat is done properly, the numbers on your hand should line right up with the numbers on the shifter. Maybe I’ll draw them on with a Sharpie and see how I like it.
I agree. It’s Mother or nothing.
Jeebuz what a lot of ink! Just, wow!
LOL:D
Not true
:smack:
I should have Googled that before I tried being clever, 
Not a jot. 
:eek:
His wife has a lot, also, but not nearly as much as he does. They once said they’d spent about $10,000 on tats, hence my comment on it being a waste of money.
Anecdote: when they were on vacation in Japan and went out to use the hotel pool, he was asked to either put on a shirt or to leave, as the Japanese guests were very uncomfortable with his ink. Seems in Japan it’s mostly criminals who have extensive tattoos.
I have a couple already. I am getting a memorial tattoo next month where my husband’s ashes will be mixed in with the tattoo ink.
And no…it’s not his name.
It’s something that is meaningful to me and dear to my heart. My ten year old will be hand drawing three hearts, which will be part of the tattoo.
At least they’ve got something to show for it.
I tattoo and I fondue! 
My Romanian buddy just turned me on to a great artist in Bucharest that I want to have do one on me. He is on facebook as Max Inkspot. He has done one spider standing on someones back that is amazingly lifelike - the shadowing is amazing. He also did a phoenix that was stunning.
I am debating getting a falcon on my right bicep and a killer carebear on my left bicep. Just hope I can afford to pay the artist to let me use the carebear as I love the image
The local guy that did my wrist would be fine for the falcon, I am thinking in blackwork with no shading, and fairly small. But anything with the shading like the carebear I want to be better than the average guy on Ugliest Tattoos - Bad tattoos of horrible fail situations that are permanent and on your body. - funny tattoos | bad tattoos | horrible tattoos | tattoo fail - Cheezburger
Everyone is going to get older and saggier when they get older anyways. Quite frankly, I think tattoos on old people are awesome.
I spotted some on my grandpa I had never noticed before, when we were out to lunch with him a couple Saturdays ago (For 29 years how did I not notice my gramps had tattoos:confused:). It was a but of a shock but I figured he got them when he was in the military during WWII and Korea. And we think people used to be so much more innocent in the old days :rolleyes:, hehe
I agree
I have 8 tattoos and I don’t plan on stopping. My son is 17 and we are counting down the months until he can get one legally and I will be there pay for it and get another one.
I’m still trying to decide what to get and who to go to. The only decision I have made so far is that I will design my own tattoo, and will be covering, or rather turning a small tat form 35 years ago, into something else. Yes, as Morgenstern said, ink fades and tats lose their definition with time.
I have three sons and a daughter, and they’re all far better looking than they have a right to be.
I find tattoos to be quite repellent on others, and certainly unappealing for myself. But I have to get used to them, because it seems to be an ever-increasingly popular thing to do, and they’re in more visible locations too, legs especially.
Grumpy old man face Hmph.
Your typo made me giggle like a 12-year-old.
Tattoo butt!!!
hahahaha, oops:smack:
TheKid’s 18th birthday present was her first tattoo (script on her ribs). At first I could only be moral support, then she okayed a piercing, then said it would fine if I wanted one of my current ones reshaded or something. Finally it was “Fine! Just get a new one! Geesh!” That’s when I had the ladybug done - her nickname is Bug.
A few friends of mine thought I was a bad mom for giving her a tattoo for her birthday. It was what she wanted, it ended up being a good experience (despite the jerkiness of the artist), and it’s something she will always remember versus an iTunes giftcard and dinner.
