My favorite tattoo stories are the ones where people ignorantly get gang tats. Laughing


In abstract, I find that hilarious. In practice, I feel too sorry for them to get much of a laugh at their expense;

I feel even sorrier for people who were skins as adolescents and changed their minds as they grew up, but are stuck with skinhead/neo-n./nationalist symbolism on their skin in conspicuous places. At least gang tattoos don't mean anything in polite company; Its would be awfully hard to explain a swastika on the back of your hand to client who is taking you to the opera. They are pretty much resigned to trading their tattoos in for scar tissue.


swastikas are also the symbol of peace in hindi.
you know. they always have that to fall onto

my friend, whos hindu, has a red swastika painted on her doorway outside her home.
except it has two dots in it, which i think are the real symbol.

poor stacy and her crooked fingers...

strangely, I haven't seen that one before. looks like it'd be a task and a half for tattoo artist.

although expensive, it's a great thing that sherri's doing.

I'd much rather have a drawing of sherri's for the price she's offering than a song. I just might take advantage of this. I nearly got a tattoo for my 21st, but passed last minute (thankfully (although what I was planning to get is still a huge possibility)). I'd like to see what Sherri can come up with...as soon as I figure out how to explain what I want.

It sounds like a great idea-

And I don't think its very expensive at all for what it is, personally.
What does a tattoo cost, and what's more important- a design or the needle work? There is a shop down the street from me (on Henderson in Dallas, for those who know it) called "Art is Art". Its not a high brow place at all. It is this weird combination of antique/junk shop and art gallery, with random pieces from local artists. I doubt you'll find a decent 8X10 original in there for anything like that price very often (multiply by two or three, minimum, maybe).
