I wanna see your tattoos!!!

Damn...someone needs to resize their picture, it's ruining the aspect ratio of the thread :mad:

Heh that is the only tattoo I have that did not hurt at all. Seriously weird, but no pain. Even on going back for touch ups!

haha, I guess the acid in the saliva is wearing the ink out much faster.
 
This is the only one I have that's worth posting. It looks a little funky because it's covering up a really bad tat made with a home-made tat.

It's the logo from my 1st car - a 1971 Dodge Demon. It wasn't as nice as this one, but here's an example. I doubt most of you have ever heard of it.

Here is the tattoo I designed when I was 18, and had inked onto my calf when I was 24. About 10 years later I was going across the boarder in Niagara Falls and I saw the exact same thing turned into a sticker on the back of a Blazer. I was like, "damn it man, shoulda copyrighted the bloody thing"!

This little bugger I did myself when I was in the US AirForce with India ink and a needle with thread wrapped around the end of it...

The bummer part was, aftet the initial attempt, which took maybe a half hour tops, it looked perfect! I was very happy with myself and I thought, "well hell, that wasn't so bad"! Then the next morning after my shower I looked down in horror.... my wrist had maybe 20 or 30 black dots strewn around randomly in no particular order. It was complete nonsense, it didn't look like anything at all! That's when it hit me that I hadn't penetrated nearly deep enough on the vast majority of it. It looked great when I was done only because the ink was sitting on the top of my skin. :rolleyes:

So then I spent a few hours every night going over it and over it again for the next two weeks. Even then it wasn't perfect, but enough was enough... it was good enough for me. I learned my lesson alright : DON'T BE A CHEAPSKATE trying to save yourself a few bucks by giving yourself a bloody tattoo, PAY THE MONEY!!! Hell what could that have possibly cost at a parlor... $50 bucks, tops?

You better believe if I had it to do over again, I woulda splurged. But then again, I wouldn't have had this self depreciating story to tell folks like you either. ;)
 
I think it's "Your luck is not my luck, my luck is bad." Missing some comma's and what not.

In fact according to Google Translate I am correct

Glueck is luck. Gluechlichkeit is happiness. I'm bi-lingual.

eta: I'm not advocating that it doesn't make sense...it just doesn't make sense to me and I'm curious.
eta2: I thought about it more and it could mean, with punctuation "Your luck is not my luck, it's my bad luck."

Its a rammsteing song.. I've always taken it to mean,

you're happiness is not my happiness, it is my misery

meaning don't push your ideals on me because everyone is different.

You're close, but you missed the "nicht" in your last translation.

Your happiness is NOT my happiness it's my misery.

Also some words in German can encompass (or not) more than one word in English. The "ist" is the same as "is" "it is" "it's" ect. That's one reason people say English the the hardest language in the world to learn due to having 10 words that really only need to be one!

My next one was going to be from shoulder to shoulder across the top of my back. It would have been a balance with an Angel on one side of it and a Devil on the other. However, I have yet to find someone to draw it out for me and money is lacking. :(
