Hey howdy hey!

A couple of years old now. My little turtle family :)

They were fresh at the time. I eventually want to get that calf filled in with something fun, but that's a ways down the road.

Welcome to the forums!

There is no need to be ashamed of your tattoo. We've got all kinds of folks with tattoos in all kinds of places, and I don't think most of them care about trends or generalized stigmas.

BUT, this a totally awesome opportunity to expand/cover that puppy into/with a back piece :). Just my .02. There are some great folks who can direct you to a tattooer who can see the tattoo in person and give you the best advice.

In the mean time, like iowagirl said, we'd love to see what you have!

On Friday I got my oldest daughter a tattoo for her 34th birthday. She already had 2-3 smalls, but now she has a very nicely done side piece.

Very cool ! That's an awesome present!

All that pale skin exposed! It burns my precious!

That's quite the layover. Yeah, the area immediately around seatac is kind of a hole, but there are some beautiful parks not too far away, and Seattle would be cool to visit. Pike place market (there is a badass little donut stand) space needle, and some fun restaurants on the pier.

Regardless if you leave the airport though, a small amount of comfort can be taken from the fact that seatac is a pretty nice airport with plenty of restaurants and a good little book store.

Today I'm headed out for a small 6 person Sub wrestling seminar with Dennis Hallman, then off riding dirt bikes with the family in Belfair, wheeee.

it ruled so much! fell off and got really muddy! successful evening!

Haha, awesome! I just imagined a group of people stuck like muddy scarecrows in a field :)

:)

Taking a week-long break from rolling around on staph-covered mats doesn't sound like a terrible idea.

Agreed. The healing on my left arm took 1/3 as long compared as my right because I took over a week off. No matter how much you clean those mats, any wound you have becomes an infection magnet. Also, the use of full length rash guard shirt and leggings will help act as a mild barrier for a young tattoo.--- according to the nurse who goes to my gym.

One of my favorite concert moments was when Laika and the Cosmonauts(finnish surfer rock instrumental band) opened for Ministry in the mid 90's. A crowd dressed in black, guys wearing collars being led around by dominatrix's, the odd grunge fellow with a lit pipe; all of them turned In unison to watch a bunch of dudes with accents, wearing Hawaiian shirts, rocking out chill tunes on stage.

After the initial collective confusion, the best part occurred when people started to slowly get into it and began dancing. A ton of people wearing their carefully constructed goth ensembles forgetting about the eventual mosh pit that would form where they were. Some of whom were actually smiling, like someone just handed the mopey kid in school a free puppy, and they could set aside their angst for a little while.

Later on that night, Ministry came on and fucking killed it, breaking the spell with a solid set and vocals that rob zombie only wishes he could maintain through a whole show.

Heh, I apologize for the nostalgia. Yar :)

yeah, its only for the ps3. my partner at work has been talking about it constantly. I hope they make a version of it for the ps4 when it comes out.

The family and I have been keeping an eye on mastiff rescues in Washington. We baby sat one for 2 months and we fell in love.

I feel that people gave fair, clear responses to this issue, many of which were showing you some love Dan. If you want to let off some frustration then we can put on some boxing gloves, you can smack me around for a little while, then we'll laugh and go grab a beer. Life is to short to pick fights on the Internet.

Deep breaths bud.

going off road segwaying tomorrow... its awesome i swear

Take many pictures so we can use them as blackmail in the future :)

Here you go Iowa, this should ease the pain. :)

A least for a little while

Welcome to the forums :). If you need any advice this is a great place for it. You can ask your question here, or use the search function to see if it's already been answered.

Anyways, I'm 18 and I live in Colorado. I love all things outdoorsy, I'm super lazy, and I love The Legend of Zelda more than life itself. Im into all kinds of art and traveling. I guess you could say I'm kind of a weirdo.)

On another note, based upon this you love to sit on the couch in a motor home playing Zelda, leaving the door open at rest stops so animals can come inside and help you paint.

I fully support your obsession with Zelda, and welcome again.

On a scale between 1 and Bear Mauling, how bad is your pain?

Inspired by the tiger thread and your post I have been eyeing some of the ones that Matt has done.

Both pics are from his instagram.

Great stuff, as are his spiders :). It's awesome that you had a good time. Meeting a nice person like that must have been the cherry on top of a great tattoo.

welcome to the forums! We would love to see pictures of your tattoos :-)

Greetings and salutations!

No worries dude, we've all been there. Your tattoo will still be there waiting for you when you are ready :)

You are a nice guy Dan, and it's awesome that you feel comfortable sharing your life with relative strangers. I love to meet new folks (especially those with common interests), hear about their lives, and talk about whatever. It does seem though, and I'm sure that much of your recent trials are contributing to this, that you are an exposed nerve. One that experiences some emotional extremes without much of a buffer in between either the good or the bad stuff.

You already know this, but dealing with hundreds of strangers, especially on the internet will inevitably strike that nerve from time to time. I would recommend not taking everything to heart and relax, whilst at the same time hopefully others will have that same patience when people get excited to share their lives and put themselves out on a limb (especially on the random crap forum, har).

These forums are a great resource for education, and even though that is the ultimate goal (at least to my limited understanding, being a F.N.G), a little frivolity can be healthy.

That is until the My Little Pony spam begins, then heads will roll.

My .02, sorry if I'm over-stepping. Lets all go out for drinks, have a good times, and discuss our next tattoos. Peace!

Erkel pants.

Neil Gaiman has a new one out: "the ocean at the end of the lane." For the several gaiman fans out there.
