It is on my back up by my left shoulder. It is not solid it is just the white part in black. Instead of an A on it I got a J for my name. It is pretty big Crazy stuff, it is my 1st tatt. Who all on the board had a tattoo?

I got drunk one night and wantd "Pro Ecclesia Pro Texana" tattooed on my arm, but I sobered up and thank god they wouldn't have done it while I was drunk anyway.
My brother is getting one and he said he would pay for it if i went 1st to see how it feels. It stung a bit but doesnt hurt at all now.

I have my daughters' names on my ankles...and one other one from when I was really young.
I don't really know that I regret them, but if I had to do it over, I would put their names somewhere else that could be hidden easier..maybe.

I've got one, its on my left shoulder blade, basically behind my heart, its my fraterneity letters. Probably isn't any bigger than 3-4 inches long and an inch high. I was going to get a shamrock intertwined around the phi symbol, but decided against it.

i have no issues with others getting them or having them...... i think your kids names are probably one of the safest bets as far as long term goes
i've thought about getting one for years, but its just something thats never been a thing "i had to do"

I dunno. I guess it was just programmed in growing up in the '60's that tats were "trashy."
I know they are an artform and all that stuff, and I know perfectly respectable people who got them. That said, being of the generation which is doing a lot of the hiring and firing these days, I can honestly say that given two equal candidates for a job, the one who gets hired is the one without ink. Fair? Probably not. Does it happen? Definitely. Therefore, why voluntarily take on an occupational/professional liability?

because the only way a potential employer will see my tattoo is if I'm not wearing a shirt.

I've got two. Were I to go back to when I got 'em, I'd tell the younger Froze that **** that seems important at age 19 is not the same **** that seems important at 31, but neither tattoo has caused me any sort of problem whatsoever so go ahead-but you should really just drop that $150 on some Yahoo stock or something.

I have 3 tattoos, one of them I did myself. I have a 7" x 7" skull and cross bones on my right calf, a bass clef on my upper right arm, and a pirate flag 2" above my left knee. The skull and crossbones cost me $250 and it probably should have been around $350-$400, but I got an insane deal. Im hopefully getting a couple more done in September at a new shop called Atomic Lotus. The guy that did my skull and crossbones will be there so im going back to him, hes expensive ($125 an hour) but its worth it, the art is amazing.
I will not get any tattoos above my neck, or below the elbows simply because I do not want to wear long sleeved shirts for the rest of my working life. I think there is nothing wrong with having tattoos and getting jobs, it shouldnt matter at all, as long as they can be covered without too much hassle.
I got mine at Atomic Lotus!
Spooky wooooooooooooooo!

Who did it? I dont think they have any regular, full time artists, just guest spots. The guy that im going to in semptember is Mark Thompson, the other guy I want to go to is named Monte.
The guy I got was from New Zealand. He was pretty cool. He made some pretty messed up jokes. Like he would say OOPS! and You wanted it in purple right?
Everyone there is pretty damn cool.

I danno, I find irony in anything for kids growing up in the 60s being "trashy" considering everything that kids did in the 60s :D

My cousin got some barbed wire tattooed on his bicep. The only problem was, he didn't have enough money for them to do the whole thing. So the barbed wire doesn't go all the way around his arm.
For me, I am too big of a wuss for a tattoo. Plus, I can't think of anything I would want marked on me for life. I wonder what all those chicks with tramp stamps are going to do when their little butterfly starts to look like a full sized kite.

Don't get tattoos. If you don't regret it, you'll just wish you hadn't done it.
Don't call them tatts. It's goofy. It ranks just below the "B" word.
Don't get a sports team logo. Or a brand name, for that matter.
My wife's cousin Becky had a boyfriend that had his ex's name Jenny on his neck. Jenny is also the name of Becky's sister. If that's not creepy, I don't know what is.

My friend's husband has a tattoo that has the letters "KLD" and "EDD" inside of a heart on his arm.

Who said a logo? For instance, I love the sport of baseball, so something having to do with baseball makes sense for me.
I also don't understand why getting an OU logo (assuming you went to school there) would be a problem. Whats wrong with loving your alma mater?

I knew a naval enlisted dood that was drunk one night in SE Asia, his buddies got him stars tattooed on his ears lobes...Lookin' good in the casket I say!
I would never get a tattoo that couldnt be covered up easy. I didnt get the Oakland Elephant because I like them.(I do) I got it because elephants are a sign of power and commitment. I am a high school baseball coach. If I ever win at state championship I am going to get the season record put inside the baseball.
