Looks like something I’d doodle while pretending to take notes. I would not get one of my doodles as a tattoo. Leave art to artists.

What is it you like about your sperm-in-the-tribal design you want in your tattoo? Maybe we can come up with a better idea.

He looks like a scorpion and lobster lovechild, and positively delicious.

But this is coming from one of those people who gets excited about Sbarro’s pizza stands. I love it because it’s not very good and I have to go through all these motions to make it palatable.

The director herself said she might need me to staff on Saturday.

I said, “If you must, I will, but I really wanted to sleep in two days in a row.”

Well, that was stupid of me. She said she’d call me. BBL, praying to God I don’t work Saturday and then get my n00b ass fired for insolence.

It’s my day off, but I have to go into the office, finish up some paperwork, and pick up my schedule.

I was told my notes have “too much” detail for billing.

I personally like the idea of a Black Forest cake with a slice missing, or something that resembles an insulin bottle labelled “Happiness” with a U 100 needle beside it.

I had a large tumor/oophorectomy that left a massive scar, and the artist went with a sort of bird’s nest/flowers analogy associated with the female reproductive system. Roughly…[Read more]

Hello! Welcome, and your English is just fine. I particularly like your use of the exclamation point!

I’ve considered cosmetic tattooing. I had chemical peeling done on my skin in a series and a few people say how young I look and how pretty my complexion is. (Not a lot of the stuff I was born with is present/unaltered.)

I need another trip to my friendly local tattoo shop, but first I have to use my days off to write some stuff for work, pay…[Read more]

I’ve never heard of finger waves.(although I have waved my finger in the past) It works in your tattoo though. I like it.

It’s a type of old-fashioned hair styles. Watch movies before 1950 and you’ll see finger waves all over the place. I think it’s really beautiful, elegant, and feminine, but I’m a lazy little bitch who…[Read more]

So right now I guess I’m just turning into a well educated hippie, who much prefers to drink wine, have affairs with men who are no good for me, and stay up all night painting or getting tattooed.

This is a pretty noble pursuit. I wish I’d pursued the arts for some of these reasons.

Guys this thread has totally gone off topic!

The selfish bitch in me doesn’t care.

I just took a job working Friday morning through Sunday night. I’ll still have to get up, go to meetings, and do some stuff once a week, but I officially can avoid the tyrannical assholes who insist they’re so special they can’t spend a minute working on the weekend.

My chance greatly decreases of ever having a successful personal life, but it’s…[Read more]

I am a shift-worker and our office is open 24X7X365 so I also sacrifice many weekends and stat holidays to the paycheck gods. Lucky for me we do a compressed work week so I only go in 3 days or nights a week. 🙂 (They are really long 12 1/2 hour shifts :(.)

I read this as “psychiatric…[Read more]

I would think that a person showing up for G.C.L.’s help with blood gushing out may be a little more receptive to her suggestions.

One on the left looks like a Beowulf inspired beauty. The other version looks like it was ripped off by a moron who liked the movie with Jolie. >_>

If it’s a known brilliant artist, toss out an idea and let them run with it. For myself, I like to have a little something done by someone I know who has a good reputation for what they do, then go back and consider big work. I give increasing amounts of freedom; on my abdominal tattoo, I let the guy color the flora as he wished as long as he…[Read more]

I took a girlfriend with me to a tattoo shop.

MISTAKE!

She could not simply say, “I want ____,” while I’m getting hammered for hours, and the little boy tattoo artist who looks like he’s a kid was too nice just to say, “Make up your mind or go on, lady.” I couldn’t be in customer service. Jesus,

Thankfully, I have a father with whom we respectfully disagree. (He’s intelligent enough to know based on the one on the abdomen, there must be more.)

Mom and I need a conversation soon about a few things going on, and not just tattoos. Criticism about my personal appearance has been overridden by being a goddamned liar.

I might be a cunt, but your child is ill, and you’re still stupid.

During my last day before I begin my three days of fourteen hour rounds at work, I’m reminded: You want a fucking tattoo, get a fucking tattoo. Don’t base it off your family’s approval or disapproval.

I’ll graduate this summer with an advanced practitioner’s degree after being a nurse for years. While cleaning my mother’s house, I was told,…[Read more]
