cheers, i only did it to increase my street cred on the midget scene :lol:
now all i gotta do is be 2 foot shorter and i'm set :wink:

had it done at Purple Haze in Narre Warren VIC,
that place has got an awesome reputation...
but they're also one of the most expensive too
(and pretty much booked solid for the rest of the year)
but i figure if you're gonna have it for life,
you better get it done right and by the best

doesn't really symbolise anything, i've just always
liked the tribal style and wanted to do it before i hit 30...
just gotta make sure i don't roll up my sleeves too high at work now

i don't think it'll be getting a run at the beach this summer,
gotta keep it out of the sun while it's still fresh or it'll fade heaps

:lol: the chicks at the coles deli counter seemed to like it though...
took me 20 mins just to get a pasta salad off em :lol:

I've watched a guy getting a tattoo at house of pain. Sitting by the front door, with a guy standing outside smoking. Smoke drifting in and over his body. The tattooist had long hair. With his ungloved hands he ran his fingers through his hair, tied it off with an elastic and went straight back to work. The guy in the chair looked like he was going to pass out, probably from the pool of blood on the ground around his feet.

I would strongly recommend against house of pain.
