New Rule: Just because your tattoo has Chinese characters in it doesn't make you spiritual. It's right above the crack of your ass. And it translates to "beef with broccoli." The last time you did anything spiritual, you were praying to God you weren't pregnant. You're not spiritual. You're just high. - Bill Maher

I have five altogether. One on each shoulder, one on each forearm and one on my right calf. I'm getting a sixth one done on my left calf at some point, but I've been deciding on what I want to put there for like almost four years now...

Here's my leg piece. I'm pretty sure I got it done in 98, which would make it about twelve years old:



(I know, I know... I'm a white bastid. It's winter time!)

Edit: It was done at Piece of Mind Tattooing in Lethbridge. Awesome place, and the owner at the time was a great guy. He did the one on my left forearm as well, but that one was about 14 years ago. I don't know if they're still there or not, but they'll be the first place I call when I finally decide on my sixth.

I want this done on my back/shoulder:



The Painkiller only, not the background.

I have a few problems how ever:
1. I am skinny as fata so it is going to take years until I buff out enough to actually get it on my back/shoulder.
2. Most importantly, I need to find someone who can actually do it. I don't want a hack job of it, and I think it'd be complicated to do properly.
3. I think it'll cost a LOT and I am poor.

I've got two now. Had one done a few years ago and just got a new Flames one finished last week. When it's healed, I will take a pic and post it.

I'm pretty sure that is one of the worst tattoos that I have ever seen.

Well, in that case he should go for it. Maybe he'll finally be able to get a hot female.

I didn't really feel like getting into the back story behind it, but it was actually drawn by an old roommate of mine. It certainly wasn't his best work but it was the last thing he ever drew.

I suppose I could have shown some of my other ones, but I happen to like this one very much. Plus my other ones are older... blah blah blah.

I've got about 65 hours worth so far. Just started my rib piece, and in April my second sleeve (3/4).

haha... WAS an AFI fan.. WAS! They are horrible now.. The last 3 albums are embarrassing. I started listening in grade 9 (14 - 15 yrs ago! Damn I'm getting old), they were a straight up punk band, then they evolved into a different but still great band.. Then Sing the sorrow, came out...

Great version of Halloween though!

I just guessed from your username. Res is freaking Sherlock Holmes, what's up! Oh, and I have no tats. I'm not spending beer money on that, crazy kids.

Well, here are some of my tattoos. Pics are from the website of the place I had them done. Shanghai Tattoo, where Ting does really great work.

I have one tattoo with Chinese characters in it, and I don't think that's pretentious. I don't show my tattoos off, or have them because I think they make me cool. I am proud of them though, and I love having them. I love having artwork on my body. I feel like they make my body more beautiful because I love the work.





To add, I definitely plan on getting many more as time and money allow. I have no regrets about these and never have.

Either there's a story behind that monkey tattoo or it's the best ridiculous idea for a tattoo ever. Either way, it's a win.
