My Wife and I are getting Tattoos!
Actually, it'll be my second and her first. My wife grew up in a very conservative family and is pretty stoked about us getting cut together since she's never really done anything rebellious.

Anyway, after a lot of research, we chose this guy, who's supposed to be the best in San Diego:

I almost feel giddy with anticipation.

1. It's not *really* rebellious anymore, is it?

Anyway, you two have fun! It's great to do things together... :thumbsup:

2. No, not really

But it's still fun.


And when you grow up in a fairly straight-laced family, it does feel like you're doing something you shouldn't...

Which is always an added bonus.

5. I'd say for someone like his wife, it still is.
It may be more culturally accepted, but to someone who grew up in such a conservative family, it still goes against her nature. Good for her.

3. what kind are you getting?
What kind of tatoos are you getting? Will they be one color or have more than one color?

I had an uncle who had a tattoo on his arm, but as he got older, the tattoo grew fuzzy and didn't look as good. I hope they do a better job with them than they did in 1936.

7. I've been thinking about getting a tat.
It has been hard deciding what to get though. Bleh.

9. Just don't get something from the wall
If you get something from flash, someone else has the exact same thing.

Tell the artist what you have in mind and get them to draw something for you.
