Pro-Vegan propaganda book/movie. Regardless of your opinion of the subject matter, you'd hope they would let the artist have any degree of flexibility in the design.

The juices coming out of the tomato make it look like it has eyes and a beak. Is that intentional? :psyduck:


A scalpel? Is the movie advocating eating salads over being a surgeon?

Wow, now I really hate this tattoo and this person (friend of a friend). "Don't get surgery for something, just stop eating meat". gently caress you, a salad isn't going to stop cancer.

Also, black ink = charred bone, yadda yadda yadda.

Oh no no, this simply will not do!
A friend of mine on Facebook (girl I used to go to college with), just happily announced that she has bought a tattoo kit off the internet, and already has volunteers to let her tattoo on. She will, of course, be practicing on the fake skin she ordered as well, but she's sure she will be tattooing people very soon as she can draw so well (she can't).

I have already begged her not to do this, but of course, she won't listen. As soon as there are pictures, these will be posted of course.

Why do people do this? Russian isn't exactly like Chaldean or Pueblo, it's easy to find a fluent speaker of it almost anywhere in the US.

Also like... It's your last name. It doesn't "translate". It's a proper noun. It's still the same word.

I have a very common Polish last name, but it got changed to "-vak" when my grandparents came over instead of "-wack". If I got the original spelling of "my name" as a tattoo and then told people who knew me it was my last name they would think I was crazy.

Maybe I'm just splitting hairs here.

Remember, most of the people who like getting foreign language tattoos think that other languages are just a cipher for English - the kind of people who want to get their initials in Chinese. I have a Kanji tattoo* and think that people getting "foreign" tattoos are stupid.

* Which was translated from English to Japanese by a native speaker who also verified the calligraphy as correct. And even then I waited a few years before getting it done.

vvv - I'd thought about getting my family's coat of arms done, but 1) the "coat of arms" was one of those Sears designs that doesn't reflect the actual coat of arms an older branch of my family had, and 2) gently caress that side of my family forever anyway.

I don't think there's a single part of my body that could contain my behemoth of a last name in a readable font, and I'm pretty tall.

Of course, I highly doubt I'd ever actually get a tattoo of my surname. I have thought about my coat of arms or an interpretation of the name's meaning, though.

My girlfriend's sister decided she was going to get a new tattoo. We know her and the company she keeps well enough to know that she was just going to have it done by a kitchen wizard. My girlfriend begged her to go to at least one of the lovely local shops, but she refused. This was the pic she sent to show us how good the guy doing hers is.

Well, it's not like there isn't usually some origin of the name that can be translated. Either in a pretty one-to-one way, like translating Johnson to Ivanovic (both meaning son of "the local varient of the Greek Ionnas"), or by finding the etymological origin of the name and seeing if there's a name in the other language that carries a similar meaning. Or you could go all out, and just translate everything until there are no proper nouns left. If we say for example Hitler had been an Anglophile, and really wanted a sweet-rear end tattoo of his full name in English, that would have come out something like Noble Majestic Wolf Who Lives Near A Subterranean River.* That it's possible isn't the same as saying it's a fantastic idea of course, but it's perhaps not completely senseless.

*The origin of Nazi furry art?

No, it doesn't.. I used to get zits on my upper arms where I'm tattooed, and it hasn't really damaged any of the ink at all. If your some idiot who scratches the hell out of your zits, and then the scabs, it would probably mess up your ink.

True, but my definition of "name" was more "what people call you when they're referring to you". Like my name is Joe, but my Spanish friends don't call me "Jose" unless they're trying to be cute.

You guys do have valid points though. But hey, my GF's sister who got tatted up in her kitchen is sending pics over tonight! Will post ASAP.

It's a crankbait fishing lure, the plastic "lip" acts to cause it to dive when you pull on the line. The fish seems to be hooked on the rear treble hook, so fairly accurate. A hideous mistake, but y'know, accurate.

I'll occasionally get small breakouts on my ink and as long as I don't gently caress with them too much they seem to heal just fine, no ink mayhem.

Sometimes I feel like this.

Regular acne is no big deal. If you have something worse, like cystic acne, it can definitely gently caress up your tattoos - I've lost some ink to it. Cystic acne is mostly invisible, though. That guy needs to get some salicylic acid wash.
