My friend is getting a quote for me as we speak. I've wanted to for about a year but only now am I saying 'Fuck it, yes.'

    I know a guy called Tony who's with a girl called Gemma. He wanted to write 'Tony' then 'Gemma' on both wrists but he said it hurt so much that all he's ended up with is 'T' and 'G'.

    LOL

    It'd be a good place for a tattoo of an eyeball, sure. I wouldn't get a mermaid on my head though.

    You could tattoo laughter lines on there if you felt you didn't look mature enough.

    Can you answer why you want one? If not, don't get one.

    Personally, I dislike them.
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.

    OK then how about tattooing a quote from Friedrich Nietzsche's 'Thus Spake Zarathustra'.

    At least you'd appear well read.

    Ahhh... OK well it should be on a T shirt in the goods section. Based on No Code, it's four circles (on the T shirt they are red/orange I think) with different symbols in.

    Good answer.

    I say get one, I love them. Be warned though, once you get one you won't be able to stop.

    I have alot of ink work on me.
    It is addictive.
    I've been in the chair about 20-25 times or more.

    Do go to a professional artist.
    If they trace/stencil the fuckin tattoo on your skin
    get up and walk out.

    This is my opinion.

    The tattoo should be free hand drawn onto your flesh
    Then tattooed.

    If they can't draw the art on you and they need to cheat by using a stencil/tracing thingy,
    that shows me they are not skilled in the art of tattooing.

    See, just as I said, it's not original anymore. I bet your pet donkey has elephant's ears tattooed either side of it's cock. :D

    And besides they might use that same design on 179 other people.
    Then you all have the same shitty tattoo.

    Screw that noise.

    To be honest, it's a PJ design so I very much doubt they'll use a stencil. All I've got is a picture. I draw myself, so if he has to use a stencil I won't be very pleased either.

    Maybe he isn't trying to be "original". Just doing something HE wants to do.
