The thing with the maybe moving it was it would have only been by about half an inch tops and as you can see from the pic it doesn’t really interfere with the other tattoo too much. I think I’m just too anal and this is one of those tattoos where the imperfections make it special.

I’m happy I kept it where it was originally done but I get what you’re saying. Glad someone exists that would have moved it. When I suggested it to my fella and artist they looked at me with utter shock and disgust lol.

I find that “lol” softens the blow while commenting on peoples nonsensical grammatical choices.

An autograph is a symbol of a memory. When you meet someone you look up to you often have an ethereal blur muddle your thought, especially if you’ve spent the afternoon waiting to meet them in the pub. It’s a concrete reminder of an awesome event. Foley signed my book, and a t-shirt and my ticket to the show and my program but along the line those things could be lost, damaged etc. Touch wood, my leg won’t be.

There’s a difference between having a huge amount of respect for someone a putting them on a pedestal. As I said; I’ve met some of the most recognisable names in the world but I didn’t really care. This one was special.

EDIT: I should also point out that Mick Foley (look at the pic or any online pic) is not the best looking chap in the world. This was not a Robert Patinson/Justin Bieber/whoever the hell else children fancy thing. This was a long-time fan, respect, once in a lifetime thing

Well I stuck the pics on the post above.

Lol what is it with people and quotation marks. “Opinions” “chap” whats going on here people?!?! lol.

I’ve been getting tattoos for a long time now so I don’t mind and/or care that autographs are not to everyones taste. My logic for getting it was that it was a once in a life time moment with a guy that has had a massive impact on my life. I’d never get an autograph from just any old celeb but Foley is special to me. And I’d never get one that wasn’t drawn directly on (hence the question about moving it in my original post). Even my fella said last night after seeing it that he was jealous and I know damn well that if it was Rubens Barichello (ex F1 driver) or Matt Bellamy (Muse front man) he’d have done the same.

Is it that people don’t have a (I’m doing it now with the quotes lol) “special” “celebrity” or would you just not get an autograph on you?

I totally get that it can been seen as a bit gross or cheesey but I don’t think I’ve ever really considered myself a normal girl.

I don’t mind. I love my new tattoo but I actually asked about what you’d do if it was your hero you met not if you thought I was cool or not.

I don’t see why him being a wrestler has anything to do with anything, same for my age. I like who and what I like. He’s been a massive part of my life and has made a huge impact on me as far as my writing, my motivation etc etc. I’m a dork and will be the first to admit it.

Also why the quotation marks around “chap”? It makes no sense. Even my boyfriend (is that better?) has said if it was his hero he’d have an autograph tattoo.
