Tattoo

I am job hunting. A few years ago I was out of work for months and my credit rating is still recovering. This time around I am being recruited and have multiple offers and I admit is much nicer to be in demand.

I've narrowed down my choices to two. One's a consulting firm offering ridiculously phat cash but requires 100% travel. The other is a state government job with a pitiful salary but phat bennies for LIEF.

I'm leaning toward the gubmint job and if I go to work for 'the man' I'll need to rebel with a tattoo. I don't like tribal and I think the rose/banner/bird/meeperfly is who-my-baby-daddy springer white trash. Skulls and panthers and snakes are out.

I've been researching this actively for a year and can't find a design that I love. I know where I want it, I want quarter sleeves - both arms.

come up with your own design that you love, and if you're not much for drawing, sit down with someone who is, and draw it out. most tatt artists these days are pretty receptive to doing up original designs.

Tattoo an meep on top of your real meep.

Then, you'll have a double meep.

Sadly, I agree with sunny. I've drawn up tat designs for friends in the past. Just be sure to compensate them for their time with lunch, beers, or whatever kind of meep acts you're capable of performing these days.

What the meep is a quarter sleeve?

That's funny you posted this today cause I just got back from an eight hour session starting my left arm sleeve.

all i can offer is choose something that means something to you rather than just something that looks cool. i have 6 and they all have significance and i am proud of them all. i have a few friends that went for skulls and dragons (and one d00d got an irn bru bottle on his leg!) and all of them wish they got something else.

obviously something cool thats means something to you is win x 2!

yosemite sam on your asscheek.

So rereading this... the artist you're going to won't make you a custom designed tat? The artist I goto refuses to do anything BUT custom one-of-a-kind stuff. Maybe you should rethink your 'tist yo/.

Chex - half sleeve goes from shoulder to elbow, I can't have one that big and ever be able to wear a short sleeved shirt to work.

Quarter sleeve is 'bout half the size of a half sleeve. Hence the name, what the meep.

My chick individualizes your concept. But I don't even have a concept. Nothing really inspires me or makes me yearn to express my NUMBA-ONE-FAN ness of said 'it'. I love my husband and kids but don't parade pictures of them about nor have I ever put a 'my kid is...' bumper sticker on my car.

I dig math and I write code. Code tattoos? Never seen any.

This is looking like meep steam. THANKS SWARM!

The popular concept of tying a 'meaning' to a tattoo ranks about on the same level as tying the word 'pet' to the word 'rock', and then going shopping for one.

That is all.

I should have added, I don't know the other artist he has there in Austin, but knowing Dan they would have to be very talented. I have only gotten ink and peircings from Dan before.

I knew a Mexican chica who had a meep tattooed between her boobseses. I was never really quite sure how I felt about it.

It's always an option.

I have picked my studio and artist. Now alls I need is a meeping design. Briza at true blue sketched some fractals and Phi and it looks fabulous. But I just don't know what to do with the other arm.

I did my gaysheet yesterday and worked 70 hours last week.

In your Breast Cleavage Locale you will tattoo the word:

VS.

When you pick up Left Breast, underneath will be White Spy, under the Right Breast will be Black Spy!

Actually... White is Right... so... Black on left, White on Right...

GO GO GO!

Saw this on rotten.com and thought ....this tat would look good on Heather.

Took me a long time to finally pull the trigger but I'm getting this started tonight. My appointment is at 8:30 and I think I'll only be able to get the outline done. On one arm.

GrapeApe, you should come down and hang out. I am bringing many female flask carriers in case I need moral support. Might go next door to Emo's for some weird burlesque cooking thing afterward.

Pastries and Pasties

Poke around in DeviantArt. http://www.deviantart.com/#

mine felt like someone with well done acrylic nails pinching me repeatedly in the same spot. Not painful, per se, but not really comfortable. I kept saying, 'Ow. Ow. Ow." until the guy was done. So now my stick man has a belly meepon.

Don't freak out. You pushed watermelon-sized humans through your hooha, you'll be fine.
