    [:D]Forumites,

    I went and got another tattoo yesterday.[}:)]
    I get them in places where I can still put my business shirt on to cover them.[;)]
    I started to get them about 6 months ago, im 36 this year and i have thought about it long and hard, and love them. I have asked at work, and I was surprised how many have 1 or 2 but you would never know.[^]

    Anyway, I have:

    Right Arm: [8)]
    – (top arm from shoulder) A Dragon, protecting a heart with my wifes name.
    – (top arm under dragon) A Draon flying below the heart.

    Left Arm: (shoulder to elbowish) A Wizard with a ball, with my 2 girls names in it.

    Left inside leg: A small “Made in Australia” triangle with an australian kangaroo logo.

    Tommorrow I have a day off work, in getting a Bear being held by a Warrior.[B)]

    What do think of tattoos ?, “Art”[:0)] or “Disgusting”[xx(]. Be honest !…

    What tattoos do you have ?

    Regards,
    Arty.

    I asked for cream (for the tatoo) at safeway.. the staff member there asked me for what.. I said tattoos, and he showed me his LMAO.. under his short sleave shirt, a black armband, so we discussed them in the shop.. LOL [:D]

    Doesn’t it hurt like hell???? Never EVER thought about it simply because I think, actually I’m sure, I’m allergic to pain…… More power to you though.

    It stings while its being done, and soon as she stops its fine… but you could be sting mode for about a hour non stop.[B)]

    I have a few small lady like tatts [}:)]

    Im booked in to get another one done next week…
    where did I put the scotch and coke?? LOL

    As for hurting…YES THEY F@$@ING HURT LIKE HELL!!
    As soon as they are done tho…they feel much better and you are left wondering what all the fuss was about. A little sting like sunburn for a few hours and art that lasts a lifetime!!

    But thats just my humble (tatt loving) opinion [:D]

    I have a tattoo also, at the bottom of my back in the middle. I dont think they hurt too much. The pain is bareable, but annoying. I think they are awsome and i want more done. The thing is they are extremly addictive as u cant just stop at one!!

    Prior planning prevents p*ss poor performance

    Well Arty and Pinky I guess I guess I will have to leave the Tattoo comp to the two of you as I currently have none and probably won’t either. I have nothing against them I have just never thought about them or that I would get any.

    Hi Arty

    Go to it. My $100 bet is starting to look good again.

    I have no tats, not really interested. One son has a big buzzy bee on one arm. His nickname is Buzz.
    One daughter has a couple in various places. Her husband has a great big stud in his tongue. That’s not my cup of teat either.

    Regards

    muppet,

    I got rid of the backlog at work yesterday, so im in full swing today ..LOL [:)]

    I wasnt into tatts either, I just started about 6 months ago, im 35yo now. I got one with Pinkys real name in a heart, then another tatt with the kids names.. then I got hooked.
    [8D]

    I dont like piercing though, I have the standard 2 small sleepers in the left ear lobe thing.. [:)]

    Go on.. get a small cat or something, you can surprise your son and daughters… [:D][:D]

    Regards,
    Arty.

    “What do think of tattoos ?, “Art” or “Disgusting”. Be honest !…”

    Hmm….’western’ tattoos? Art… I guess.
    In a repetitive and cliched sort of way – ‘I want a butterfly on my ankle and a rose on my stomach’ . *yawn*

    I work in entertainment so I know lots of people with tattoos, the best ‘art’ i saw was a guy who had only lucky symbols from around the world. His torso, arms and legs were covered! nice and colourful. No scary faces etc. He was pretty cute in a Tommy Lee kind of way.

    Samoan and Maori tattoos are completely different, a part of the culture, a rite of passage. they get it done the old fashioned slow painful way and it’s lifechanging. It’s a ritual. Elders are involved and many people gather.

    the thing that puts me off tattoos is by association – the average hooker has one, and your average jail inmate has a few.
    Hmm.
    my friends in rock call the ones on your hands ‘job-stoppers’ hehe

    if it’s some kind of rebellious ‘tribal’ kinda thing, I just don’t think I’m in that tribe.

    And what is with that tendency for female tattoo afficionados to accessories with fake animal prints? and vinyl?
    Luckily, 80’s fashion is back in style right now

    Can we talk about mullets now?

    A little secret……LOTS of Police Officers have tattoo’s. Mind you, a lot of people don’t like associating with Police either. [:(]

    Have a Darwin-designed skull in tribal lines on my left upper arm. Wanted a tat’ for about 12 years, but couldn’t find the “right” one. As soon as I saw this one I wanted it. Week later I was looking for another one.

    Some people find it painful….some don’t.
    Cheers
    Doug

    Have handcuffs….will travel.
