OK- I think my tats are as appropriate or well thought out as they can be…
right shoulder- my Grandfather’s WWII infantry patch. He was in the 45th and the tat is a red diamond with a native american thunderbird in yellow. I am very proud of his service in the War and I know that as long as people see the tat they will ask me about it and I will have an opportunity to tell his story for years after he has passed.
center back- 3 inch yen and yang modified to have 3 little fishy things instead of 2. I have a brother who died and one brother who is my best friend in the world and this symbol represents the 3 of us united.
I think these are good excuses to get permanent markings…dont you?
I knew a girl in law school who, during our second year at school, had a good friend pass away. She was so moved that she had her friend’s portrait put right on her sternum - smack in the middle, just above her boobs so that if she wore a v-neck, it was partly nestled in her cleavage, sticking out.
Then it was third year of law school and we were all going to court and it dawned on her that despite the sentiment, it was not the best idea in the world - so she was having it lasered off. From what I understand, it hurt like a *itch.
I’m thinking of getting a tattoo. I’d get tiny stars that made a constellation - Orion, probably - and it wouldn’t be very obvious what it was unless I pointed it out. I just like it. Of course, first I need some balls and pain tolerance.
OK- this was told to me last night at dinner with my parents…
They were out to dinner at this little dive restaurant that is sort of an institution in this town and they asked their waitress about her numerous tatoos. She described the numerous ones you can’t see and finished with saying “I used to have one right here (points to area between her hip and pubic area), but its gone now.” My grandfather asked how it could be gone, and she said, “I think my pus*y ate it”.
I used to take care of a man(I’m an RN) who had numerous tattoos. Over his nipples were the words “Sweet” and “Sour” on his knees “hello” and “Baby” and on his penis “FUCK STICK”.
Even worse on his arms were Rob loves Brenda,crossed out,Susan,crossed out, Karen, crossed out then finally ?.

Oh, another Bad Tattoo - there used to be a particularly violent and unpleasant skinhead in Portsmouth who had a dotted line and ‘cut here’, complete with the little scissors picture, tattooed around his neck.
This image is slightly distorted, because it was created by lying down on a scanner instead of using a camera, but you get the idea. It’s on my right shoulderblade.
There was the little girl in the gas station, hardly old enough to walk, wearing a two piece bathing suit, with a tattoo visible from her ankle, wrapping around her leg, hidden by her suit bottom, again appearing up across her belly, where it disappeared underneath her top. Barely old enough to walk. What a shame.
Pink has always been my favorite character since I was a kid! The mower bit is awsome! I wish I’d thought of it.
I wonder if my wife…“Hey, Honey!, c’mere and read this…”
Had a friend (gay, borderline personality disorder, for what it’s worth) who wanted to get the words “Lucky You” tattooed above his crotch. Told him it was horribly stupid, and that anyone with an ounce of self-esteem would walk the fuck out if they came across that . . . at least, I would, and I can’t really afford to pass up a piece when it becomes available.
