Here's the tattoo that I got from Jondix at the SFO Convention...

My friends and I were the 1% this year. We drank fancy beer (minus the PBR in my hand) and made fun of poor people all night. OPD thought we were hilarious and so did many of the protesters. Im surprised we didnt get beat up or thrown in jail.

Appointment w/ Steve Byrne this Saturday-stoked = D

i'll be tattooing at rock of ages in austin, tx. december 4-5-6. email [email protected] for appointments (do not message on here please). thank you!

I always get the same questions... Q: Do they hurt? A: Only when my mom sees them. Q: Where is the worst place to get tattooed? A: Prison Q: Why would you go do and do that to yourself? A: The same reason you wouldn't thats just a few.....

One more sitting and this puppy should be complete.

here's some work from two of my favorite artists that don't tattoo. Vania Zouravliov: Takato Yamamoto:

I don't think I have gone more than a month in the last five years without getting a tattoo. Until I get my back done and one rib at least outlined I am trying not to get any other tattoos. It was tough this weekend, a couple of my friends had some pretty cool Halloween sheets painted. My lack of free time without my son should help facilitate this. I just realized if I didn't step up and get my back and ribs done that would be the only spots I have left before years end. I think I know who I want to do both of my ribs and hopefully I can make it happen. I am going to try to get a couple hours done on my back on Friday, get this show on the road.

Hey everyone, Now I am sure we have all had people come up to us and have some negative comment thrown at us about our tattoos. What have been some actual quick thinking comebacks you have used to sort of defend/make the idiot go away. I'll start it off: My wife and I were in a clothing store and this lady comes up to us and said "Look at that awful tattoo, I don't like to see that on a woman". My wife's zippy comeback was "Ya well I don't like to see a mustache and a beard on a woman either but there is nothing I can do about yours..." We laughed and she walked away all frown faced LOL

I just read the 222 thread and came across a post by Gia mentioning that Scott's birthday is 11/1, which coincidentially is today. On that note... Happy Birthday @Scott Sylvia !!! :D

As a "senior member" I demand their be a buffet and I get a discount on it between 2-4 daily. I like @CaptCanada idea, I will start thinking of my new title as we speak.

Not the best Pic but one of the guys at my shop got this piece of Rollo Flash done by Mav Mess last week. Love this design.

No, sadly no one here knows Bronson. So if anyone asked what I'm supposed to be I would tell them an angry mime... It sucks having to explain costumes.

To me, Halloween costumes are supposed to be kinda hookey, rather than scarey.....but this costume is creeping me out! Some kinda Dark Beetlejuice action going on....eekk. *edit: Just to balance out the above creepiness....I think they are heading off to Occupy Wall Street.

Ha ha theres even less chance for jobs now homie you just got a face tat and think "unk" represents life .

Another 3 hours on my back tomorrow evening, then 6 the next day. Nervous but this should hopefully bring it close to finished, unless I'm seriously misjudging it.

pretty funny....

V and Gravity's Rainbow are for me the best two novels that Pynchon produced. Both took me probably about three or four goes to get through them, but perseverence pays off in the end. He is often compared to writers like Rushdie, Eco and Calvino in terms of post-modern, magic-realist styles of writing, but I find him to be much more in a tradition of American writers such as Burroughs and Vonnegut. I prefer him to Don DeLillo as well, and I don't really understand why they are so often mentioned in the same breath.

I can't compete with that epic back piece, but here is my chest, completed last night. Dave Fox is the man.

Yeah, I pretty much want to get tattooed every day and probably would if I could!

Just finished up about 30 minutes ago. Now enoying a nice cold pint of Perroni.

not sure who the smoozers are or even how you know of these things but you have the opportunity to define your world/your reality. i'm out here in putting in the work and trying to do my best to give every customer the best possible work i can do as well as making their tattoo experience a good one. sure i'd be nice to get any sort of comments from peers or other tattooers but in the end, the people i'm putting tattoos on are the only ones that matter. whatever success i achieve its really for one purpose and that's to provide for my family and give what i can to those that need it whenever i can. whatever element in your life is invading with these negative vibes, remove them and seek out what brings positive energy and you won't give a shit who's sucking cock or who's famous and how they got there.

From when Tim Lehi was sitting in at Kings Ave.

@Duffa Oh alright then. It's based on a Brooklyn Joe Lieber design. This is just the outline. Two more sessions to go before it's completed. Heres a slightly closer photo.

He's all "well shit, I know I left my cock somewhere ... "

i knew about this thread before it was cool guys.....
