Can we revisit tattoos?

Daloon’s avatar is a buttcheek…...

@crunch, it appears to be a heavily tattooed buttocks.

I have a black and red X on my left wrist, underside.

I have some tribal thing that I hate on my left forearm, underside. First tattoo, 17 and stupid.

I have my artist’s signature skull on my left ankle.

I have the NYC skyline with the towers during sunset and there’s a rope circle with big flowers around it and a banner that says “REMEMBER” in red white and blue letters with 9.11.01 underneath on my right leg, under the knee on the outside.

I have a heart with the British flag wrapped in thorns dripping blood that spells “Pride” on my right ankle. That was a coverup of a homemade tattoo of an ex’s first initial. 15 and stupid.

I have a giant fairy sitting on the moon on my right leg under the knee.

I have kanji for “love” over my heart. My ex has the kanji for “eternal” to match in the same spot. Thank goodness I was smart enough to get the half that stands well on its own.

I have my cat Bandit on my left shoulder with the words “See You At The Bridge” and her birthdate and death date. I have my dog Fluffy on my right shoulder with the words “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” and her dates. These are in reference to the Rainbow Bridge(pets)

I have my name in graffiti in the middle of my back between the other two.

I have a light pink star, no outline, on the right side of my neck below and behind my ear.

I have an old English “J” that fades from baby blue to white on the left side of my neck below and behind my ear.

I have a red shooting star on the top of my right foot with purple trails that go around the side of my foot under my ankle.

I have an appointment on October 30 for the Tom Petty logo (without the banners on the sides) and the words “Same Sad Echo When You Lie”

I don’t have any, but my mom has a tattoo on her ankle, and my grandma has small tattoo on her back…...and a couple on her face.

I have one and still like it (15 years out). I’ve considered another, but since I haven’t settled on exactly what I want, I’ve put it off.

I love tattoos with a story. I got my first one a couple of months ago and love it! Although I’ve found I forget I have it from time to time – it’s not in a highly visible spot – at least not for me!

@wildflower: The only one of mine that doesn’t have a story is the one I hate/regret :)

Right now I have 3. Wanting some more but have no money right now….grrrrr
On my left arm I have a cross, dove with flames, and YHWH written in Hebrew on my wrist. YHWH is a sacred name for God.

No tattoos, and can’t imagine doing by choice something so permanent to my body.

I have 8. I don’t regret any of them.

my bee Kinda blurry, took it from my phone.

In memory of my grandma Bee. Its small yet means a lot to me!

Next month I am getting (on my left, upper back) an origami crane with waves and cherry blossoms. I can’t wait!

I’ve got Marvin The Martian on my ankle. I’d like another tatt, I just don’t know what or where I’ll put it yet.

i have the jedi alliance symbol above my right ankle.(my icon)
and the four element symbols from avatar the last airbender on the inside of my left forearm. ;)
both are black ink. jedi cost like 80 and avatar cost about 200.

Now I understand the jedi question you asked a few weeks ago! That’s cool…

@poof: When I read the title to this question, I thought to myself, “Yuck, I’d never get a tattoo.” Then I read your answer, and I’m really starting to visualize some subdermal homage to Tom Petty..

@Lefteh, I didn’t get my first tattoo until I was 41, up until then I was positive I would NEVER have one. Now I have two and I love them both, because they are both original and have special meaning for me.

@Supermouse: know exactly what you mean. Although I wanted to get a tattoo since I was about 14, but never found the one until recently.

I have the word queer tattooed in bold courier new capital letters between my shoulder blades. It is about five inches long. Whenever I see it I can’t help but grin. I think about possibly regretting it but my worries drift away every time that grin sweeps across my face.

@lefteh: Seriously? Or sarcastic?

Seriously!
Tom Petty is my man.
