Considering a tattoo

[Guru]

Hi all,

I'm considering getting a tattoo(s) of the following:

My kids names
The Kanji (I think it it) symbol for the year of the RAM and possibly the one for Earth.

Is there some kind of pen or pencil you can get for drawing out tattoo designs on your skin that can just be washed off so I can see what it would look like?

Thanks,

G

You can buy rub on transfer paper, could sketch it out, scan it in, print it off.

Make sure you have the kids names tattooed up the side of your neck, just behind the ear.

Why kids names? Do you forget them often? Why writing you can't read?

I considered having the year of the RAM as I'm Aries, but went for Year of the GPU because it made more of a difference to my performance.

Why writing you can't read?

Because it's cool darn it! Why does nobody understand this, the more gibberish you permanently ink on your body, the cooler and more awesome you are. I always ask my tattooist to use his arthritic left hand, that way even English is unreadable - I can't believe how cool it looks

I'm not a fan of tattoos - I think 99.9% of them look terrible, but they suit some people. No need to be daft, kids names are one of the few things that people get tattoos off which I can relate to, daft celtic symbols and jokes, now those I really don't understand. Especially on people who have no connection to the item they've had tattoo'd on them.

It's a bit like my getting a military emblem tattoo'd on me when I haven't been in the military "because I like it". Pure douchebaggery.

Black felt pen? Sharpie? - both will come off with a bit of scrubbing - i'd also advise against getting somebody who cant read the language to do it (as you or they could make mistakes) - personally I don't think writing is the best thing to get done

Please, for the love of all that is decent in the world, don't do this!

The very fact you're asking for an opinion on here means you shouldn't get one.

Basically. Don't look for validation. If you want it, and it feels right, go for it. Don't ask anyone's permission on such a personal matter.

imo.

Name tattoos are probably the worst tattoos I can think of.

I know someone with a penis tattooed on his knee

People think way too much into tattoos, normally people without them.

It's no big thing. If you want one, get one.

OCUK would probably pay you to have some RAM tattooed on you with their logo.

Still better than a name.

How else are you supposed to let people know you've procreated? It should be a matter of public concern.

Nothing says class like the names of your children tattooed on you.
