Now I'm wondering if we need a tattoo forum.
Now I'm wondering if we need a tattoo forum.
One thing that always amazes me is when foreigners visit Scottish sites asking for a translation of some weird slogan for a tattoo! Mostly the phrases are unable to be translated accurately. The requester won't have a CLUE what they are willing to have inked on their body forever.... That way... Madness lies!
My favorite is when people go for Chinese characters but have no idea what they actually say:

Gardenarian.....that's a really cool poem from Tina Fey! How we do worry about our kids!
DS has a large character between his shoulder blades. It was supposed to be a four part process, two characters, one above the other, then shading or accents of some kind for each that gave the final meaning to the whole deal. He did the green part on the first character and never went back. Not sure if the tattoo hurt that much or if it had something to do with him breaking up with his then Chinese girlfriend. Either way, its gibberish now.
No Tweety Birds, Jilly. A fair number of onions, carrots and celery, though.
"Back when I was a young boy all my aunts and uncles would poke me in the ribs at weddings saying your next! Your next! They stopped doing all that crap when I started doing it to them... at funerals!"
There is an English guy who is an AKC judge for Bulldogs who has a bulldog on his P-E-N-I-S. ouch. If he gets drunk enough he will show you.
And then, this is a small-world-in-my-city story: My next door neighbor whose house is literally 1/2 inch from mine modeled at Washington University Art School for their drawing classes. That is nude modeling, of course. She had a couple of tattoos on her breasts. So she was talking to the art professor there one day about tattoos, and the art prof pulled up her shirt and showed my neighbor her bulldog tattoo. Of course my neighbor told me about this because we have bulldogs, and it turns out that the art prof showed bulldogs and I knew her because she had moved from New York to St. Louis and immediately contacted our bulldog club about membership.
But then, that's the way things are in St. Louis, it's 1 degree of separation from everyone.
One of my son's is on his neck behind ear. In black a branch with a bird sitting watching other bird fly away. Yes the big break up with X. My thought was at 25 gotcha, but at 50 will he really remember the event with such sadness? At 27 he is already healed from the big event.
