I went to a tattoo shop in Hayward, CA where a little hispanic kid tattooed a Koi on me. It was a trascendental experience.

It's called Yantra and that is in fact how they are often applied. They are sort of a combination of magic spell, Theravada scripture and tattoo so the monk tattooing them does usually select the designs based on profession, current life situations, hopes and dreams. They are built in a sort of lego fashion where different designs are associated with different magic powers but a single monk will have a limited scope of designs he tattoos in different orders and patterns to create a customized ritual for the individual person. You're supposed to get them added to constantly as your life changes and as the ink and the tattoos supposed power fades away. A lot of time in Thailand you'll see MMA Fighters, Criminals and Police Officers who have huge ones covering their entire back in tiny little scripture and religious designs.

I don't think that's a real backpiece, honestly. The large Brenda across the shoulders made up of little Brendas, sure, but not the insane font boogaloo of the bottom. It looks photoshopped, or maybe I'm just desperately hoping nobody would willingly put Papyrus on their body.

I'm gonna go ahead and imagine that he came home with that, showed it to Brenda, and proudly exclaimed: "Alright, baby! I did it! Just like I said I would! Now, as per our deal, it's your turn!" Brenda does an exemplary job of disguising her tears of horror as tears of joy for this man's inability to understand a half drunken joke.
"Gaylord, you're the most amazing man ever." She manages to stammer as she picks up her purse. "I'll be back in a few hours, dear." Before the reality of what she has just witnessed has had time to sink in, her subconscious has brought her to her car, turned the key and sent her barreling down the highway, never to return.

The BRENDA backpiece has been circulating for so long that my desire for it to be real trumps any evidence to the contrary.

Yeah it's just the expected "Death before Dishonor" with most of the last word cut off by the wrap. Not only a terrible idea with 3 different fonts for no reason, but they're all fairly terrible fonts to boot.

Yeah I can believe it. I got a coworker who's a biker in a hells angel affiliated club who has his wife's name tattooed on him for each year of their 30+ marriage but they are scattered all over the place. He also has about 100 or so lovely old tattoos in general.

Be bear aware!


I went on a winter vacation to Cuba back in January and we had the pleasure of meeting this guy. He started every day by pounding back a 40 of rum and venturing out into the world. One day he hopped in a cab and the driver took him to some random little town. He met a Cuban man that spoke broken English and asked if this drunken white boy wanted a tattoo.

He followed this guy up into a broken down shanty apartment building, like 5 stories up and got tattoed in the guys cramped living room with about 10 other people living in the apartment going about their day to day lives. Sounded pretty hygienic...

He stumbled back into the resort later that night and we all noticed the new, seriously crooked, spur of the moment tattoo on the guys back. :stonk: The next day he was drunk again, laying in the sand and decided to screw the healing process and went swimming in the ocean.
