Joking aside, we have a pretty active Russian Mob in Philly; north of the city proper, but there's a lot of Russian and Russian Jewish organized crime here. When I used to work for a porn company we dealt with them; some of their bruisers were nothing to f' with. Big fellas.

They always did right by me, but never really respected the 'no smoking' signs.

[ShawnPorter]

to clarify, of course...

When I said 'Russian Prison tattoos on non scary Russian Mobsters' I had a lapse in grammar.

What I meant was on skinny hipsters.

@ShawnPorter - hold up. In one post, you mention both having to deal with Russian mobsters and working for a porn company...

Stories please! ;)

carry on...

Foxes dressed in human clothes and the usual name up inner arm in olde english. I think hand tattoos on non-tattooed ppl are going to be even more prominent. And whatever the next big pop star decides to get tattooed on them.

Back to the actual thread (thanks Kev)

I actually had someone bring me a picture, taken of their TV while watching Ink Master, and wanted "that tattoo".

Sadly I think this will be a trend this year. "TV Tattoos"
