Just saying.

Love. Peace. Metallica.

Yeah, I’m with you on this one. Like I’m really going to use ANYTHING from Singapore. Hell, no offense, but we already know how I feel about ANYTHING and ANYONE NOT from the United States.

I don’t know what did the Cats in the sherdog “OT” say?

Nothing even remotely NON-Sarcastic. God, I had a feeling someone from the OT would find me here. 🙁

I can see where you’re coming from with the mindset that Kanji script is a fad, but shit! 😮 I didn’t think mine were crooked! I’ve NEVER noticed them to be crooked and I’ve NEVER had anyone point out to me that they might look crooked! I’ve always thought they look perfectly straight!

The kanji looks “crooked” too you?! As in “not straight”?! I must be missing something here, because they have always looked straight to me. The only thing that I have been advised on that might be wrong with them is that the lines are a bit bumpy and the color is bad, but I’m actually going to get it redone by a better artist in about 2 weeks.…[Read more]

No, not really. Just curious. I mean, if you look at the pics of my tats in my album, I don’t think there’s a way that I could turn them into sleeves that would look good, is there?

Wow, so I’m not the only one who keeps his tattoos hidden and actually makes a big deal out of “unveiling” them to everyone! Now, you guys didn’t mention specific amounts of time for keeping them hidden, so how long is it from the time they are done to the time that you “unveil” them?

Great post, Knighthawk! Would love to see pics of your tats!

Hi

Depends on the style of tattoo.

For portrait work or black and shade I would go to High Voltage (not just Kat Von D – they all seem to specialise in that field when visited).

That said though I would argue that Miami Ink has a much more experienced team and come a very close second in portrait work.

So overall I would…[Read more]

Seriously mate, is that the best you can come up with? You can’t find anything to throw at me other than my nationality? Would you be saying the same if I was from Pakistan?

Once again, this is a tattoo website. You are making me lose the will to live, seriously.

Are you sure that doesn’t have to do with the fact that you’re from England? Again, you don’t seem to be grasping what I’m trying to get at with the whole…[Read more]

Wow, I’m done with this. Even DonnaMH went from agreeing with me in the beginning and saying “If it was me, I would be flaunting them all over the place” to siding with the rest of you about how disrespectful I am. Apparently, we’re just going to have to agree to disagree on this one, because I’m sorry, but my wife’s parents, her sister and…[Read more]

Hi tat2d

In response to your question – any person who washes their hands that number of times and feels the need to impose on others a regime of extreme sanitary health warnings is not a hypocrite – they are ill.

It sounds like your sister in law is exhibiting a nervous disorder known as obssessive compulsive disorder and…[Read more]

So, has anyone else had the chance to review my post on page 5 about the questions regarding using class and tact with Grandma? I think this would really help me get over any immaturity that I may be displaying in this situation.

I won’t lie. I think you hit the nail on the head. I am honestly shocked that, in this entire thread, ONE person actually sided with me and thought that what my wife’s family is asking is wrong.

Sorry to butt in as I’m not peachiepoo, but I think we’re on the same wavelength anyway:

That’s a ridiculous analogy.

peachiepoo: Let’s do a little analogy scenario here. Just bear with me here, for point-proving purposes….

In regards to the whole “Grandma issue”: Here’s what I think the problem is.

I’ll bet ya’ right now you probably couldn’t even handle a TENTH of the pain that I went through getting it. And I’ll tell ya’ what! I’ll make an exception for you and be generous by not even holding the fact that you’re from England against you. 😉
