    Default New Law! Everyone must get a tattoo. What's yours?

    Let's say it has to be at least 3" across.

    What is it, and where's it going?

    I actually think about this all the time, but don't have any answer.

    A gold '74 Firebird? (Rockford's car)

    Gotta be my shoulder.

    That is a fantastic car, Oliveloaf, and one of my first loves. Nice choice.

    I'd go with a stylized sun and moon design, perhaps along these lines. It would go on my lower abdomen to the left, almost on my hip.

    I already got mine before the law went into effect.



    An explanation http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Mandalorians

    I also got this one as to not get cited for failure to ink

    Give me whiskey when I'm thirsty,Give me a cold beer when I'm dry, Give me root beer when I'm sickly, Give me a headstone when I die.

    Why do I think that Oliveloaf really WANTS a tattoo and is just hoping to have some far-fetched excuse to do it?

    I really don't care for tattoos, but if I HAD to, I think I would get something like this across my shoulder blades:

    I'd have this if I had to have one.


    I think I'll have it on my forearm.

    I served 4 years in the Navy, got drunk in Chicago, San Diego, LA and San Fransisco and several foreign ports and still have no tattoo. I would fight against this law by quietly avoiding it. If forced at gunpoint, I would come up with the least visible and sparse tattoo legally allowed. Perhaps the outline of PI.

    I wouldn't like this law. I'm not into marking up my body, but I'll play along.

    I'd probably get this

    or a butterfly or daisy. I'd want it fairly small and somewhere I could hide it

    You are allowed a doubler, seeing as you've not been very prolific lately, Sleep's.

    Damn, good point, if I had to have a tattoo an interlocking NY would work for me.

    I've got a tattoo, but I'm not sure it's big enough. If I had to get another one, I'd get a line of Homer on a collar bone.

    An ace of hearts card, with a halo and angel wings. Smallest size allowable, it would be on my left breast, just above my bra line. Actually WANT this one, to be honest.

    Microdot printing of all my core textbooks.
    To go with the magnifying glass I'd have installed in my left eye.
    With maybe just a little porn hidden amongst in the footnotes.

    One of DH's exploding or otherwise tortured daisies. If I weren't such a wimp about needles, we'd have had matching tatoos a long time ago.

    ETA - found pics.

    Oh, and a couple of bolts in my neck. I figure 5/8" x 2 1/2" grade 8.
    Hex head, of course.

    Something Boston sports-related. Maybe the old Patriots logo.

    I changed my mind. Mine is going to be my list of five hollywood men who deserve a kick in the balls.

    Okay...

    Now I want mine to be a list of Hollywood babes I want to have cocktails with.

    Scattered across my back in sensitive spots, several small seashells, representing various species. This would be to facilitate guidance in back massage/scratches: "Rub the bivalve a little harder...mmm...okay, now a gentle scratch on the trochus...more towards the auger, please..."

    Yes, I'm aware that "rubbing the bivalve" sounds very dirty. That's part of the fun!
