I've said it before, but Robert is an absolute pleasure to get tattooed by.

aaaaaand it's booked.

I'm talking with Robert Ryan about starting my thigh; his days off and my days off are the same, but he's being a sport and seeing what he can work out. It's on a totally blank thigh, so we're going to go all out and do the whole front.

Yeah, it was just Johnny musing on the overuse and abuse of lettering not implying that lettering tattoos are inherently bad.

The Letter of the Law: Laws for Lettering and Tattoos « Occult Vibrations I recently reblogged an article on lettering that you might want to check out; Anisya hit the nail on the head- you can always simplify the words into an image...

I don't see that happening. But I have a feeling we'll all be happy with what's coming.

He's a tattooer. A 17yo kitchen wizard.

aaaaand Im done.

Oh. According to the site I stole that from, he's 16.

Dude. Hobbit jokes and I 'fell short'? I didn't even do that on purpose. Score.

ohhellyeah.

Thanks a bunch!

I tried to think of every possible Lord of the Rings joke I could make, and fell short. Welcome to LST.

Oh yeah- PS: Don't google his review unless you want the movie spoiled. While there is some batshit crazy nonsense, he also gives away a lot of the surprises.

I forget how tattooed/tattoo accepting a city Philadelphia is until I read threads like this. I'd KILL to have a waiter/waitress not bring up my tattoos, show me theirs, etc. The last time I went to court (Jury duty, 3 years ago- oddly, going again in two weeks) I had both a Bailiff and a judge comment on my tattoos (positively) while waiting for a danish at the free breakfast table. My mortgage broker asked me "where do you get your work done" while I was closing on my house. My doctor has a backpiece. I dunno. I feel it a little when I travel outside of Philly, but even in the middle of buttfucknowhere I tend to get positive reactions. Perhaps it's my charming dimples.

Did you see the Red Reed review of Cabin? Where he just makes up stuff that happened in the film? I dunno. I really liked it. Well acted and inventive, but with bad CG.

A friend of mine has had major amounts of laser removal as well as almost a whole body of tattooing; and her doctor discovered pigment around her lymph nodes during a mammogram. But thats probably more from the laser removal. Oh. And I'm sick right now. I manage a bar. Have you noticed that all of us who complain about being under the weather more often work at bars?

Sounds like my Saturday nights at work.

I just invited Allen to join the forum.

Give my regards to Dave!

According to the 2011 US Census... I am.

Falkner is one of my oldest friends, and so is David. Welcome to the forum, Harley. Glad to have you here.
