The Freaks Inked Up!

[BadMoon]

Yeah I have seen that before... it kind of freaked me out the first time I saw it. Pixie from L.A. Ink has some swirly things under her skin near her wrists. I wouldn't do it just because I like the aesthetics of normal tattoos so much.

I am getting more and more nervous everyday as my appointment draws nearer. Yours is tonight...

No mine is in 3 and a half hours and I have major butterflies. I also didn't sleep at all last night and had dreams about it being all jacked up.

The moment of truth man. It's ok if you back out. But if you picked a good artist and have seen their portfolio then you don't have much to worry about- as in I doubt you will end up with a jacked-up tattoo.

Mine will be big too so I know what you are going through. Scary but exciting.

Email me when you are done.

Will do! 2 hours and 15 to go! My hands are so sweaty. I ate a big breakfast and now I am trying to wolf down some lasagna to get some carbs in me. I hate itailian food.

 

[Bannister]

I hate itailian food.

I hate your face.

 

[BadMoon]

I hate your face.

You are no longer awesome in my eyes.

True Story:

"Last Rites" Tattoo


October 15, 2005 -- A man getting a "Last Rites" tattoo etched into his arm in a Brooklyn shop yesterday felt dizzy, fainted and fell head-first into a glass display case - slitting his throat and killing him, police said.

The tragic mishap occurred at 2 p.m. while Juaquin Leger, 28, of Brooklyn, was getting the tattoo in the Buzz Tattoo Shop at 61 Graham Ave. in Williamsburg.

Store owner Julio Ramos cried as he described what happened as he began etching the eerily foreboding tattoo on Leger's right forearm.

"I was doing the linework," he said. "I insisted that he sit down because he was getting dizzy."

The tattoo depicts the face of a devil known as a "Last Rites" style among artists.

"He got up and walked to the counter to get some food" that he had brought with him, Ramos said, trembling.

Others in the shop told detectives that Leger said he thought eating would make him feel better, police sources said.

After walking over to the counter, the witnesses reported, Leger blurted out, "Well, I still feel dizzy," and collapsed, falling head-first into the display case, shattering its glass top.

 

[Bannister]

You are no longer awesome in my eyes.

Yeah, well you hate Italian food, so you were dead to me first. Besides, once you sober up, you will realize just how awesome I still am.

Stay away from glass.

those are kick ass tattoos! How long have you had them for? I know I'm gonna get addicted to getting them

My first tattoo I got in '92, my second in '96 and my third in '05 or maybe it was '06.......

Hopefully will get one more later this year.

I'd say good luck Keith - but I know everything is going to be just fine.

Not a Freak but I met someone today who has a tattoo. He was in to speak to 300+ of my students-- He got his tattoo over sixty years ago and it's a series of numbers on his arm.

Not all ink is good... But some can be more powerful than others.

Isn't it great that we live in a day and age when we can have the choice of putting butterflies or Yodas on our skin?

Have fun today Badmoon--

I bet he was very interesting to listen too. When I was in 5th grade we had a survivor come in and talk to us too.

And thanks Neil! Edward Cullen is never going to look better than on my skin!

 

[El Roranous]

I had Olive Garden last time I got tattooed, will probably have the same next time as well... so Bannister can now say how awesome I am for liking crappy Americanized Italian food.

Good luck Keith, I hope you don't collapse and accidentally slit your throat on some glass. Cullen's for life!

I just had work done on my arm saturday. I think all tattoos "hurt", but after the first few minutes you accept it, and its not that bad. I think the biggest thing is caring for it afterwards. Using the right lotion and letting it heal.

 

[El Roranous]

Are you supposed to use lotion right away? For example, after the first time you wash it and pat it dry then should you put lotion on it?

Well how soon did you wash it? I wouldn't put lotion on for several hours after it was done...and I think I might have even waited 24 hours...dang it's been awhile since my last one.....but different artists will tell you different things.

Yeah it is just the initial couple swipes and then all the anxiety goes away. But damn the adrenalin is already flying here.

Rory, yes you apply it right away. They have stuff out called ink fix now.
