Actually, sadly, it matters now.

Oh be a man, get a tat by your pussy.
Seriously though, I've thought about getting tattoos a lot but I can never think of anything that I'd want to have on my skin for the rest of my life. Maybe the Liberty Bell.

I can see that being totally appropriate for you!
I was 32 before I got my first one, so yeah, I get the whole "need to be sure" thing. Why do you think I don't have a DT tat yet? I'm planning.
My first, the parrot, was just a lark, almost. I could not find anything I wanted and was going to walk out of the shop when I saw the bird flash - it looked just like my quaker, and I HAD to have it. So there you go.
#2 was because I always wanted a tiger tat - which is what #1 was supposed to be - and my husband had just died - his Chinese zodiac was tiger - and there you go. Still my favorite tat, still the best one I've had. It's very well done.
3rd was one I went in for something completely different and got talked out of, and just browsing the flash found it - it was my mother's birthday, ironically (which I didn't remember until halfway through the tattoo) and was an Irish shamrock - she's Irish.
So, I will get a wild hair and get a new one. It just hasn't "called" me yet.

Is that yours? That is a very cool tat! It must have taken HOURS.
Oh, and anyone got a good image of the Ka symbol? I may need it in about a week and a half.

Roland would have understood.
Hey! I'm new here, and happened to see this thread, and it was for me. I have a tatto, and why the Big Coffin Hunter? Because everyone else has everything else, and yet a junkie would recognize it. Plus, I have this thing for Roy... -ahem-. Yeah. I may have it redone later... if I get the inspiration for it. Plus, I got it done on my 19th birthday. I felt so geeky!! In a good way.

And has a DT junkie ever stopped you in the street? Has it ever been recognized by a stranger?

Yes, Matthew is well known for being deadpan serious at all times.
By the way, I will probably be going back next weekend for the final touches on my Rose tattoo (which is now fully healed from round 1). I'll post more pics when it's done.
This collecting stuff is a sickness! ~Patrick

Very cool Gretchen.
I know it's how I feel about mine.
