Dan

what does it mean or say ?

so why would that offend anybody ?

You find a four-year-old post and act like an toddler in your reply.

 Man. You are so cool. 🤣

Great first post! The perfect way to ingratiate yourself with the community.

Oh I'm fully expecting to hate myself for it 🤣 
But it will be worth it... right 🥲🥴
Thanks for sharing the pics! Also, loving the stack of skulls on the left arm! 
 
Glad to hear you didn't find it too horrible, I'll hold out in hope!
While it would be nice to have the same experience as Dan, I'm fully expecting it to suck 

I have both my elbows and knees done, honestly they were not that bad, my knee ditches were bad,
I don't have any good pics of my elbows

My elbows were both super painful. But I think my knee was the worst.

for those playing at home- I have decided on a sad eye cloud (cloud, eye in middle, raindrops) for the right elbow. Still trapesing through images for further inspiration for left arm through. 

Hi. Female here. Don't get a cliche tattoo in Vegas if you are worried about the pain. Also, calling people names? Grow the F*** up. Byeeeeeee.

no, I said that  because it's going to hurt,you're the one whining about your pain tolerance. 
 
"macho jackass" and "meathead" ? F*** you,

if you have to ask "how much will it hurt? ", don't get a tattoo.

Being an ass hole to the people who have been on this forum a long time is not a smart way to get advice. Frankly @Dan is right; if you’re worried about the pain, don’t get one. There’s no way to quantify the pain. I have other helpful hints for first timers.

I love Aussies!

Slowly but surely! Realizing now the mindfuck that is a full backpiece. About 15 hours in and not even close to halfway there. Enjoying the process!

I was going to pop this in latest tattoo thread, but the rest of my collection is here, so I'll just keep it together.
Initially,  today's appointent was going to be 3 pieces, but have to hold off - so just grabbed the dragon head. Back of the bingo wing. 
Next week Andrew will touch up the reds he's done previously (axe, butterfly, strawberry,  little bit on swallow) as he isn't happy with how the reds looking. 
 
Happy with my dragons head 🐲❤

LOL who cares ?!?!?  
it's going to look like a nicely settled 20 yo tattoo.
maybe you shouldn't be getting tattoos if that is a serious concern of yours.
here is one of  my 24 yo tattoos (never touched up)

my 2019 tattoos,-- Tim Hendricks..Tim Hendricks..Em Scott..Tanya Martin..Tommy Montoya..Greg Christian

Rather excited. I asked Kyle if we would have time to at least start the thigh as well as do the left inner bicep in the one appointment and he gave the green light- so booking request form was filled out this morning which means circus horse and flipped lady/demon head on the left  thigh to come in August - woo!
Thigh we will size up and decide if its front of or side of when I'm in the shop in July. (Possibly similar positioning and sizing as current right thigh tattoo shown in previous post- depends on what Kyle suggests as I am pretty flexible on it)
for the mean time- the lucky rabbit foot and elephant have finished flaking and I am in count-down mode for my appointment with Andrew on July 7 . 
Autumn/Winter has been/is busy ! (Australia)

Thanks so much folks. I really appreciate the reassurance. 
 
I will have a look around the forum and  get inspiration for my next tattoo  
 
thanks again

I have one old music inspired tattoo.
 

here is another music inspired piece of mine, small but I like it.
 

Thanks Dan!
July I'll have a couple to share again, and Kyle is taking bookings for August from this Sunday and I am really keen to have him do one of those flipped demon/lady heads on my other thigh, or / and the horse on my left inner bicep... soooo.... 
but after that I may slow off again until next year.
