maybe he was holding the gear when they drilled the hole in it? BAM loss of finger?

[shiboujin]

Why does the top hand have 3 fingers while the erst have 4?

Updated, got my Livestrong touched up, and symetrical Lovestrong on the right wrist.

Mine only one so far, yes it's done. Pearl Jam tattoo that very few fans will even get where it's from

any meaning behind the bar code and hydrogen atom?

just curious.

The bar code is actually my social security number. It symbolizes our consumerist society and how I am a product of it and how I have numbers to catalog me just like the products in a store. The hydrogen atom symbolizes simplicity because hydrogen is the simplest and most abundant element in the universe. It is also in everything.

I have had a bar code on my right wrist for a couple years. Yesterday I had a Dr. Manhattan hydrogen atom done on my left wrist.

I think I'm gonna get my tattoo this weekend. "Eat well, stay fit, die anyways". I don't remember where the quote came from or how, but as far as I can tell its something I thought of myself. I'm thinking of having it done in a Vegas style of font.
Something similar to this:


I know this is something to get for myself, and thats why i'm doing it, but I'm looking for opinions about it.

I believe the proper grammar should be "anyway" rather than "anyways".

Selling my car tomorrow and starting on my tattoo's lol, been thinking about what I want to get for the last 5 years, but the closer the time comes to getting it, the more indecisive I get. I know at some point I'll have them all done, but just not sure which will be the first...
So what better place to ask than r3v :giggle:
1) Sublime sun - not sure where I'll get mine (my dad had it on his stomach so it'll be a memorial to him, and I like Sublime)
2) Fenrir/Fenris - wrapped around my torso $$$ (Mythological Norse wolf, supposed to kill Odin in the Ragnarok, blah blah blah too much to type, basically a giant evil wolf. And I'm almost full Swedish, and the rest is Norwegian, German and French so it's most of my heritage.)
3) Social Distortion skeleton w/ the martini & cig on my calf (just my favorite band, and if it's done right it'll look great.)
4) Odin's ravens - one on each shoulder blade facing in (Huginn and Muninn, fly around Earth daily and tell Odin of all that is happening on Earth)
5) A complex combination that is from the torso up a Frost Giant -Ymir- (again, Norse mythology) and from the torso down is about half of the earth.
6) Two logs somehow wrapped around the bottom with partial humanistic features (blah blah, Odin and his 2 brothers give them breath and life, brain and feeling, and hearing and sight. Voila - instant people lol.


Yes I know that's a lot of work, a lot of hours, and a lot of money. But I'm only 18, I've got a little while. And like I said, none of these are just spur of the moment type things, I've thought about them for years, just unsure of where to start. Because I know I don't want the Norse ones to just be willy-nilly all over the place but somehow connected (well... maybe not connected per se, but somehow all fitting together)

I was at a sublime w/rome concert a few weeks ago and a guy had the sun accross his entire back, it looked upwards of 3 grand in work, amazing shit. I actually took a picture of it thats how awesome it was haha

I think its pretty cool/funny. If youve had it in your head for a while its prolly something you wont regret.
