Wow, it's nice to see others have some quotes tattooed.
My husband was just talking about it the other day...he had brought it up in the past, but I told him no...we both don't have tattooes, so we dropped the conversation every time he brought it up.
But he said the cutest thing that I couldn't resist...
"I really want to tattoo our Ten Club names" he says.
"Ten Club names? What do you mean, honey?"
"Yeah...IamMine and mysmallself"
He never posts here, but he thought that was his "Ten Club" name.
He wants to tattoo 'iammine' and 'mysmallself' in lower case and in typewriter format on both of his arms and also in small sizes.
Ten Club names...too damn cute.
Didn't say no this time...
Now...the debate is which arm I want my 'ten club' name goes on... hahaha.
JA: Why do I get the Ticketmaster question?

I did end up getting the fernando apocado concept tattoo of dissolving. Ms. Sophia did it for me, she's a great person. I will probably get a sketched hand opened seeping water to the outline of the piece. The words "once dissolved, we are free to grow" will probably end up being the pearl jam words i incorporate toward it. I love that breakdown part in severed hand. Great philosophical outlook.
Just read my signature. Long, I know, but very meaningful for me.
hello id jsut like to know what you personnally think the lyrics mean. i have an idea and i think theyre beautiful the way they are but i jsut wanted to know your view. i want a tattoo one way or another and i want somethign nice and not so cheesy but i do believe in love on way or another and this line puts it all together for me. what do you thinl?

I wanted my kids names, then that underneath. Im taking a break from the ink at the moment tho. My last which was koi back piece was 6 months of pain.
It just sums up what some one means to you, in one sentence.
And we're all allowed to dream of the next time we touch.
Wasn't thinking of lyrics, but have always liked the idea of the stickman on my shoulder. In fact, I've almost convinced myself to have it done. But now I've read this thread and I'm reconsidering..................!!!!

I was thinking maybe a part of Black, I thout that someone would already write about ...
All the love gone bad turned my world to black, tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I ever be ...
But it's too long and might become well, I don't know how to say it in english but heu ... depress?
I am mine would be a good choice too! Indifference also ... well an d a lot more!
I actually just got this tattoo... well sort of. I got all i am all ill be on my wrist. and the tattoo guy thought that was too much lettering! it looks awesome though
i'm thinking about getting "...wishing out the days.." on the inside of my wrist that or else 'dont it make you smile?" , but i see others have posted that one already oh, and i also like "footsteps in the hall..." one of my favorite pearl jam songs and lostdogs is definitely my favorite pj cd!! i'm torn. i can't decide which one to get!

i would suggest Don't it make you smile. im kinda jealous I didnt think of that one. but the inside of the wrist is an awesome place. People try to read me for hours!
I've always wanted to tattoo "I guess it was the beatings... made me wise
But I'm not about to give thanks, or apologize
I couldn't breathe, holdin' me down
Hand on my face, pushed to the ground
Enmity gauged, united by fear
Forced to endure what I could not forgive..." somewhere's on my back, but that may be a little much

it's funny that you picked, don't it make you smile, because thats what i decided upon too! i actually emailed the tattoo guy that gave me my last tattoo to tell him i wanted that and asked him to send me some samples of pretty cursive type writing he can do it in. so excited!!

Oh dear dad
can you see me now
I am myself
like you somehow
I'll wait up in the dark
for you to speak to me
I'll open up
Release me
my dad died when I was younger and these lyrics bring tears to my eyes just typing them. What an amazing song.
