It is reborn, at last. 6 hours today, and now we must wait. Tim, thank you. You’re an inky god among mortals.

    What is the point of that? Does it even mean anything to the person who put it on themselves FOR LIFE? Is it even the design of the person who will wear it FOR LIFE? That is going to look so great when you are old wrinkled, trying to keep up with you grand kids. Skin loses elasticity, you know, and one day that’s going to look like a huge mess. Enjoy looking “artsy”, though.

    What is the point of you visiting a website only to bash it like that? You don’t know the person who had the work done, and maybe it DOES mean a great deal to them. And in case you haven’t noticed, back tattoos are easily covered up by not being naked. So quit being such a prejudiced bag and leave these people in piece.

    btw, that design is AMAZING.

    Really? 2010-2011 and we are still hearing from people whining about “When you get old that is going to look like crap.” OBVIOUSLY NO ONE CARES. How about people just do what they want to their own bodies, if you don’t like it, then fuck off and do your own thing.

  • Lox

    Guess what. When you get old, pretty much everything looks like crap. Might as well enjoy it while you’ve got it. Goodonya, looks awesome. :)

  • caroline

    I’m sorry but when you’re old, I doubt you care about how a tattoo looks “bad” because well what doesn’t look that way? Are you still trying to impress people? How about the person enjoys the tattoo for what it is, and in old age looks back on it as a period of their life and the memories and choices they made in that life. You do what you feel is right for your body, but don’t even try and tell someone else what is right for their body.

  • deg

  • Sumner

    This made me go ‘mmmmm.’ It’s really delicious, I love it.
