Would you get a tattoo, are you getting one, or do you have one? What would/did you get? Why would/did you choose that, and where would/did you get it done?

I know of six tattoos I'm getting, probably in the next couple years: a penrose triangle (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wi...reieck.svg.png)

and the five Generation I pokeballs Emoticon: Tongue :p It seems like a lot, but they'd all be really small. Also, I have no clue where I'll get them yet xS
Confession: I really, really freaking love glitter. SHH! o.o

Yeah. I want some.
I want to get a few.
One for my dad who passed when I was five.
One for my dogs who just recently passed.
And one having something to do with recovery.
Dunno where, don't know when.
But I want to get them.

I have one done already.
I'm considering getting part of the transgender symbol done, too.
I've been having a lot of trouble as to whether I should come out and transition or to stay in the closet and hope it's just a phase but I'd like a reminder regardless of my decision.

Hell yes, I'm getting tattoos.

A shit ton of them.

I'm getting a Celtic knot with my girlfriend. Mine's going to be on my right wrist and hers on her left.

I'm getting a sleeve that is hard to explain, but it's going to be a gamer sleeve with a bunch of my favorite video games on it.

An octopus on my right thigh will be one of them as well.

A tattoo on my whole side, but I don't know what yet.

A tattoo on my hip. Maybe.

Music notes behind my ear.

And then the Assassin Order logo on the back of my shoulder with the quote "Nothing is true. Everything is permitted" around it.


Yup.

Lol

Yep Emoticon: Smile :) I'm getting a tattoo of a mockingjay pin combined with the deathly hallows on my back and I'm gonna get a rainbow too I think somewhere and then maybe two femme symbols interlocked on my hip. I might put "independence" somewhere too on my back because that word is super important to me.

I want to get a rose on my wrist in memory of my friend, a dragon on my calf, and probably a fairy of some sort on my ankle.

I'm hoping to get a charm bracelet around my ankle and put a new charm every time something important happens. I would love to get more i just don't have any thing else that is important enough.

I want to get a tattoo of a tied tic tac toe game to symbolize how bad war is. (It's a movie reference from WarGames. The computer concludes, "Strange game. The only winning move is not to play." As it is in war)

I would get coordinates of important places in my life, such as where I got married, proposed, where my adopted children were born...

I would probably get that either on my shoulder blade or on my hip where my underwear or bathing suit would keep it covered most of the time. And it would be small, but I and my S.O. would know what it meant.

I want to get a tat with my partner, for like a 4 year anniversary of marriage on my under left wrist. A lock in the shape of the first letter of my partner, then a key hole with my first letter, M. And have him get a key on his right wrist to fit the lock.

when I'm sixteen, I'm getting a tattoo. my mom agreed to allow me and pay for it.

I've changed my mind many times. but lately I've been really thinking about it, and I have an idea of something that would have true meaning.
I want to get a big old fashioned birdcage with the door open. on the top of the handle, there'll be a dove perched and staring off.
its a representation of me and my life as a whole. I've been through alot, and for awhile, I was trapped. I was forced to have visitation with my verbally abusive parent, who would drunkenly scream at me. I've had periods of anorexia and bulimia, where I felt stuck, I couldn't get away. there's been more, but those are the main things. overall, I've faced situations in my life where I was really trapped. I couldn't control my own life and my own fate. but now I've begun to take hold of my own life and I think its important that my tattoo shows that. and the dove itself would be me. escaped from a cage, in control.

besides that, I want to get words under my left tit.
don't know what exactly, but I want it to have meaning and be in typerwriter print.

Look, I hate to say it, but tattoos are one thing that girls probably shouldn't overdo. Not because it looks bad or it's trashy or something dumb like that, but have you ever seen an old woman with them? Suffice to say: http://www.tattoosdesigns.ws/u...too-totaly1.jpg

Of course, it's not all that much better for guys, but if they keep to arms or legs, then at least the tattoos stand a chance of maintaining their original shape. My great aunt bobby has a tattoo of an eye on her shoulder, and it's stretched most of the way down her arm at this point.

That mustache on the finger thing will always be a good idea for everyone though. Emoticon: Grin :D

I've already got one. I love it to bits partly because of what it stands for, which is a whole long, complicated, and at times confusing explanation, and partly because it confuses everyone who sees it, and it's visible 90% of the time Emoticon: Grin :D The best responses I've had to it (after explanation, that is) are "So, are you autistic?" and "Oh. I was going to ask where the bodies were buried."

I've got my second design (the base of it is the vegvisir symbol) almost done, it just needs a few tweaks. It'll be done later this year, once I've moved to my new place and paid the deposit.

I do have a few other designs in the works, but I tend to find that not only does money play a part in what I get next, but what's going on in my life plays a huge part. My first one was done as a kind of anchor for my thought processes, and I've got to say, it works.

When I turn 19, yes.
One on the base of my neck (or top of my spine) that involves my three passions: reading, writing, and theatre.
Anything else is slightly fuzzy. I would like a small tat of a book over my heart, but again, ideas for another tattoo are still in the making.

Yes, when I'm eighteen - - Unless, my other decides to allow me sooner, which I doubt. Anyway, I'd like it to be on my shoulder, saying "look closer. . ." And I'd like another on my lower back that says "time destroys everything."
