I noticed talk about doing a tattoo thread in the gun thread but I guess Shank didnt want to do one since he doesn't have any. So I thought, hell, I will especially since I have had two inked on my body during the past couple of months!
Here are pics and descriptions!
This is my birthday (May 15th) designed as a time signature, my choice of bass clef was because I primarily play bass guitar. I got this tattoo a few days after my 20th birthday out in Colorado for a trip/reunion to visit a friend of mine who was born in the same hospital as me 12 hours apart. She was also supposed to get a tattoo with the 515 numbers but I guess has to do something crazy and won't be able to afford it for another month or so. So only I ended up getting a tattoo since mine is small enough that it only took half an hour and cost 50 bucks.
This is a tattoo I got last week. The design is known as the Vergina Sun, and is a decorative sun symbol that was found in some macedonian greek's tomb back in the 70's or something (named after the area it was found in). It's been found on various forms of Ancient Greek pottery and jewelery etc, and where it was first "discovered" it was used as a royal insignia for the family of Philip II and Alexander the Great. However the lambda in the middle was of my own design and honestly doesnt have much explanation other than it is also a Greek symbol, and complements the rays of the sun in my opinion!
Unfortunately back in the 90's modern Greece got their panties in a twist when Macedonia ( A country that used to be part of Yugoslavia) used the sun in their flag as well, and I guess there were lots of big rallies in Greece so that only they can use the sun on their flag. Leave it to crazy Europeans to argue over something trite and ruin cool things. Macedonia changed their flag anyways. Anyways I'm a big history nerd, and the sun's design compelled me to use it as the template for my sun tattoo which i've planned for a while.
Here is a pic of my disgustingly pale (and disgusting) torso to show where I had the tattoos inked.
So tattoos! What kinds do you SE++er's have? Are there any that you are planning to get in the future? Do you think they're just dumb and that I'm a dumb faggot for getting those things permanently on my body? Let's do some tattoo talk.

are tattoos cheaper in Europe than in the United States
Or "Choking hazard"
the idea after that was a big kraken or octopus along my ribcage with tentacles reaching around but that shit would be expensive.

It would have to be a martian crocodile, cause it'd turn red too.
i might get a sherriff's tin star if I still want to in a year
dunno where
maybe on my ass
Tattoo each nipple to resemble the face of a young Ed Asner
I was severely tempted to get the lobster johnson logo on my palm, but i guess hand tattoos dont take.
also they are highly frowned upon in the professional world
oh shi-
yeah at least i can take my coupla piercings out.

Not many professions are pro-tattoos. Rock star, cage fighter, and maybe Raneados when he has sex with Loomdun for a living are the only things I can think of.
I want a big ol' Nyarlathotep on either my side/chest or upper arm/shoulder
That's the one I've been wanting for a long while now
I might get some other stuff too!
Maybe even get other stuff first because, well, it's smaller (theoretically)
I've considered getting Morpheus's symbol dream helmet from Sandman, possibly on the back of my neck (this)
Other than that I'm not too sure about anything
Probably more nerdy comics and literature stuff
i have this problem all the time. Having Winnie the Pooh with his head stuck in a giant bong was one of the dumber ones i thought of in high school, and now im sitting on the idea of the black mesa logo
don't be like me, brendon.
that would be cool, huh
I seriously do want that tatoo, though.
Not of the real cow, I want one of the fucked-up, squiggle-vision cow he's actually got.

the shoe,
this:
and black spider-man
the last one will probably never happen
but the other two are pretty much guaranteed at some point
well if you get that you have to get the banana too. it's a package deal.
your = belonging to you

man i should get an application for that last one
sounds like a perfect match
This is all I got now. I've been planning my next one for a while, but nothing finalized yet.
Edit: yay google.
oh nooooooooo
White doesn't tattoo well. It comes off looking like a scar of sorts. Just GIS "white tattoos" to see what they look like.
edit: oh, it's in B/W and you want it in color. I read that wrong.
