If someone got this ironically it would be one of my favorite tattoos of all time.

Copying that character into GIS produces many pictures of Chinese hobos. So I think in Chinese it is correct.

Are bad mods also topical? I was looking at a piercer's portfolio that included branding, and this is the point where I closed the page: Linking for the squeamish- it's a black and white picture of someone's really bad branding, done by a professional that owns a shop, not a kitchen wizard: http://i.imgur.com/3cqUH9f.jpg I know branding and scarification aren't going to be nearly as precise as tattoos, but man...those lines are bad, real bad.

The only good scar stuff I've seen was in some nat geo or discovery documentary where they showed some south east Asian Buddhists (I think they were Theraveda which is like the super old school hardcore primal Buddhist branch) who got these really intricate scarifications done that all looked sort of like the kind of thing you'd see etched into stone on a temple.

This script is really bad, but I wonder if it's intended to mimic the handwriting of the grandpa in question? If he always signed cards or whatever that way, bad handwriting and all, and his grandchild got his signature as a tribute tattoo, I actually think it's sort of cute.

That was my read on it, too. I imagine the source image was an old Snoopy birthday card or something. I have a child's understanding of how tattoos work, but I doubt you make stray marks with one the way you do with pens. Dragging the loop on the 'f' in 'of' into the 'l' in 'love' is a total pen-move, and so is the disconnected loop at the bottom of the illegible first word in the second line.

I had a Jewish friend that used to complain about part of the religion that didn't make sense: "You can get a boob job or a nose job, but one tattoo and you can't be buried in a Jewish cemetery." If that's true (I honestly don't know), maybe scarification is a kind of loophole way of getting a tattoo?

That's probably more on the rumor side of things, because there's a sort of general "Don't be an rear end in a top hat, especially to other Jews" clause that would usually preclude somebody from refusing burial. I mean, I'm sure the Hassids wouldn't do it, but a Hassidic Jew isn't getting a tattoo to begin with.

There is no rule in Judaism against tattoos. There is one orthodox cemetery that has a rule against them, but other than that it's an old wives tale told by Jewish mothers to keep their kids from getting tattooed. That being said, some Jews do think that it is disrespectful to the Jews who were tattooed against their will in the Holocaust, but that is neither here nor there.

I should have been more clear. There is no rule against being buried in a Jewish cemetery if you are tattooed. As far as I know, the only limitations on burial in a Jewish Cemetery are for non-Jews. While people who commit suicide are technically not allowed to be buried in a Jewish cemetery, most congregations will find that the person was not sane (thus not responsible for his or her actions) or that suicide rather than accident cannot be proved with absolute certainty, allowing the person to be buried in the Jewish Cemetery.

I wish I had older pictures of my brand but trust me that they do not age well. The scars still look about the same but it is never going to be a super clean look. I don't regret getting them but would not get anymore. Fortunately I grew enough chest hair in my 30's to cover the really bad kitchen wizard scars on my chest. Edit: Also in the late 90's I met these guys in a hardcore band called "the blood of Abraham" who all had their grandfather's camp numbers tattooed on their arms. bongwizzard has a new favorite as of 22:01 on Feb 21, 2014 |

The Talmud probably has even more prohibitions against all tats, but the Leviticus prohibition really only means you shouldn't get a tattoo of your dead mother.

Colonial Air Force posted:That whole section of Leviticus is about doing things in mourning (shaving, scarring/tattooing, &c.). No it's not. Leviticus 19 is about general rules, it's only Lev.19:28 that mentions mourning, so the scarring and probably tattooing is only in case of mourning. The shaving and cutting of hair on the other hand is a general rule (lev. 19:27).

Fortunately I grew enough chest hair in my 30's to cover the really bad kitchen wizard scars on my chest. The only scarification I've seen that I think really looks good are the super duper traditional ones done in some African tribes. They tend to be entirely non pictorgaphic, and just consist of dots, bands and short lines done in simple patterns that follow the contours of the body or face.

It'd probably be a terrible idea since scar tissue is only half as flexible as the tissue it's replacing. Combine that with a super stretchy organ like the penis and well...

how does intricate scarring like that look twenty or thirty years down the line? For that matter, how do tattoos done in the bright, crisp intricate modern style look over the following decades, you always see these stunningly beautiful tats when they're fairly fresh, does that last?
