Title: Tattoos
Post by: Enrico Salazar on December 05, 2005, 03:10:24 PM
Last night Enrico found a peanut.  

It made him think of Jimmy Carter and the time Enrico had lunch with him and Margaret Trudeau.  Was in 1978, and lunch was held at Russian Tea Room in New York City - do not get hopes up, place has NOTHING to do with tea-bagging as Enrico knows it.  Is just for food.  Is sad.

During appetizers Jimmy Carter noticed tattoo on Enrico's hand of three black circles, one large and other two smaller.  He asked what these tattoos meant.  Enrico was outraged for few moments, after all lunch was supposed to be about management of world garbage and this clown asks about tattoo?  Then Enrico realized that tattoos can be cultural signposts . . . like tattoos on people in New Zealand . . . he relaxed and put down steak knife he had been ready to plunge into Carter's peanut loving neck.

Enrico explained that tattoos represented Salazorian cartoon Ricardo Rat, and that Enrico had been fan-club El Presidente as tiny child.  He had only been El Presidente for few weeks, though, then he killed the treasurer and vice El Presidente, took over offices and became Ricardo Rat Fan Club Generalissimo.  What can he say?  Is in his blood.

Margaret Trudeau asked if that was first tattoo Enrico ever got, and he laughed long and loud.  No, he said through chuckles, he got first tattoo at age five, then opened shirt and showed vulture with wings spread across chest.   Coincidentally enough, Margaret Trudeau also received first tattoo at age of five . . . she got tattoo of some freak cartoon character named Mickey Mouse . . . Enrico never heard of him.  Sounds like bullshit.

Jimmy Carter had never got tattoo, so Enrico and Margaret got him drunk and tattooed the words "Tricky Dick" on his chest.

What are your tattoos?

left leg, from knee to ankle: some freaky-deeky shit taht my boy did freehand. it's REALLY good, but I have no idea what it's supposed to be other than that part of it is a vagina and clitoris. yes, I have a clit on my leg. art for art's sake.

right leg, knee to ankle: a giant representation of the Mickey's Malt Liquor hornet.

left arm, shoulder to elbow: a big marrow-tribal design surrounding a biohazard symbol. colorwork is still unfinished.

right arm, most of shoulder: the island of St. Thomas with shading for topography in green and yellow, and the words "North Side" in big red Old English lettering.

Is true.  Good point.

Enrico can't count how many times he was recognized by Kabballa tree of life on right forearm.  Tattoos like that get around Mediterranean poker joints.

Also,  Enrico forgot to give list of all tattoos:

1)  Vulture, on chest

2)  Ricardo Rat, hand

3)  Ace of Spades, left shoulder

4)  Tree of Life, right forearm

5)  Love & Hate, across fingers

6)  Eightball, back of right shoulder

7)  Kali,  left forearm

8)  names of ex-wives, right arm above elbow

9)  left & right, bottom of opposite feet

10)  Island of Salazore, right thigh

11)  Liberace, left thigh

12)  'Ritzibottom', right shin

13)  Giant Squid, upper chest onto neck

14)  Poco, back of neck

Enrico thinks that is all of them, but there could be some he forgot about.

Sorry for the glare, that picture was taken the day after. DS3 told me that she wanted to get another tattoo one day and asked me if I wanted one too, so I had 30 minutes to do the design. She got the same thing on her shoulder in blue. I'm thinking about putting this really sweet lotus design around it that some guy in Portland designed, but not for a few years.

I've always thought "When I evenually get sent to prison for life, the PD will be none the wiser. They'll think I simply stopped posting."

She was a big time poster, and just went cold.

i've seen some really nice facial tattoos on women before.
of course they were girlie and dainty, usually little stars or something of the like.
they can be classy if you do it right, but i've seen some really horrible shit that pretty much wrecked the face as well.
just choose wisely Aini, you can't cover it up w/ a sock if you decide later you don't like it.

When I'm sixty, I'll deal with that when I'm 60.

I'm not getting any facial work until I'm about 29 or 30.  If I still want it after 5 years, it's probably something I can live with permanently.

Hence why I waited til I was 25 to get my first one done, and I know it's something that I will love til the day I die...Unlike my sister, who got 5 tattoos between age 18 and 19.5. Though the fish on her foot is quite cute. She still needs work on her hip.

Yeah, it's not the sexiest pic of her. But she could probably kick your ass. She knocked Brooke Hogan out once...made her change her career from kickboxing to singing, unfortunately.

So here's a picture of much more normal family interaction:

I have a Dragonfly on my right shoulder, which is my totem.  I have the artwork for a crow for my left shoulder as I am of the bird clan.  I love my tattoo, they are addictive.  I want at least 4 more.

As I have never and probably never will do anything to involve people identifying me from my tattoos, I'm safe.  You tend to get less and less rebellious with each kid!

I shared a bedroom with her for about 15 years. I can fully attest she is female.

If she's straight though....that's another question. Sometimes we aren't sure.

j/k

IF i'm ever going to have a tattoo, it's going to be an ouroboros wrapped around some body part, leg, arm, finger, wrist, i dunno.

but i think i'm just going to have it customly made into a ring some day when i have the moneys for it (cause i dont really want a tattoo)

.. except that i heard that the female wizards in the wheel of time fantasy series have rings like these. which kinda sucks because i don't want it out of any geekness symbol for a fantasy book i'm never going to read anyway, but because i think the ouroboros is one of the coolest symbols ever.

Wow...that would be a neat effect.

Talking last night to one of the artists about a friend that wants a Spiderman piece, he was like, "Even better would be to make a half sleeve of skin ripping and showing the Spiderman suit underneath."

It would be a LOT of work, but it would be worth it. The guys I go to win all sorts of awards.

I'm more or less using the smaller pieces on my legs to get warmed up for my back.

By Scarification maybe?  
It'd be a lot of fine work, but the depth you can get with the resulting scar would add somethign to it.  
You would have to get it done differently from most scars, just so it doen't look like a design done w/ puffed out scar-tissue.  (Scar for the internal detail and branding for the edges maybe?)

Pre - Google, I assumed this was some form of body modification done with carfeul application of acid. (Following your idea for depth.  Currently researching the controlability / healing of chemical burns.)

I'd 2nd Suu's opinion on personal wishes / relevance in ink.

I've still not come up with something I'm sure I want illustrated on myself yet.  
I've also seen (at College, folks here excluded) a good bit of tatooing that was fairly copypasta, so my ideas for myself may be backlash againt that.  
If anything this discussion shown me a more encouraging side to it all.

Just sayin'. I'm glad I didn't start getting tattooed until last year. Because what I wanted when I was 17 is sooooo different than what I want now. Star Wars is a ridiculous part of my life when you live a character every other weekend or what not, and I doubt unless something really bad happens, that I'll be leaving the Legion anytime soon.

Hey now.  :lol:  I have rose flash and I LURV it!  But I'm always of the opinion that, if you choose something you really love and want to live with, who the fuck cares where it came from, who else has it, or what it symbolizes.  Your body, your tenure in that body, and therefore YOUR choice.

Nope, but I know the artist who did that.

It's going to be the Skyway Bridge at dawn/sunset, the view facing INTO Tampa Bay, so the sun itself won't be in it. Just the colors. The beach line will be on the left, and two small silhouettes of F-16s will be flying overhead. I may put a pirate ship sailing under the bridge, but I haven't decided yet.

Sappho doesn't EVER get enough praise...

Her lyrical work is amazing, but do to languages rapidly evolving at the time and the methods of archiving literary works, it sucks that nearly everything she had written is lost. Plus, when people bring up Sappho, it's like, you get the whole, "Oh the Lesbian feminist one?" Well yeah, she WAS Lesbian, as in, from the island of Lesbos, and so what if she did have women lovers? That was commonplace back then, and even so, no one knows for sure, as she could have been alluding to many things with her writing style.

Way back, when TGRR was just a little girl, he was at Fort Drum, and was thinking of getting a tattoo of the 10th Mn patch on his left shoulder, like many people were.

Then his squadmate went, and they spelled "Mountain" wrong on the tab...they forgot the first "n", and my friend was in the "Moutain" division. 

TGRR decided he didn't really need a tattoo, after all.

I drew a tattoo for my wife of a tiny stylized elephant, and she wanted the word "LAW" under it, so I also drew up something which looked sort of like Times, just to give the artist the idea... he almost went ahead and drew my lettering which was SLOPPY... luckily I noticed just in time.

Yeah, it truly sucks.  I remember being told the theory she was likely a priestess of Aphrodite, and so the poems were devoted to ideas of love, lust and beauty in all its forms.  I'm not certain if this is anything more than conjecture though.

Fragment 1 IS a Hymn to Aphrodite. It wouldn't surprise me. Of course Sappho is often quoted on mentioning a daughter and husband in some of her works as well. Again...common for a woman still, especially a devotee to Aphrodite to love everything anyway. She was like the feminine version of Socrates, who was enamored with the strength of men and male form.

The first one on her hip was HORRIBLE. It was a teeny tiny palm tree that the artist she went to really dicked her over on. The color was totally uneven and really light, and she had to pay $100 for it. She got a larger, solid black palm tree put over it that stretches from the bottom of her ribs to her hairline for the same price.

Re: Sappho.

I don't know whether she was gay or straight or bi or anything in between. Honestly, I don't care. I think her poetry is beautiful, and I think it's really cool that she's the first female poet to have had her work written down (at least that we have record of, to my knowledge). So that's pretty bad ass. But mostly, I love that it's all in fragments--because I only have these tiny pieces to work with, I can make what I want of them, feel how I want to feel about them, interpret them however I want. Basically, their value can become very personalized. It also just blows my mind that her writing has such an impact on people that even though all we have left are these little fragments (though some are of a good size), people still continue to read it and pass it down and find value in it, after thousands of years. That's fucking bad ass. So there's a nice reminder of how something tiny--like a little fragment of poetry, or a one-sentence memebomb, or just something you say in passing--can end up having these huge ripples.

Speaking of tramp stamps, I think mine is going to be next rather than getting my legs finished (MAKE UP YOUR MIND, SUU!)

It's going to be the Latin quote Ad Astra Per Aspera, but I'm thinking of writing it in the Greek alphabet. So normal people will see it and think it says like, "Zeus was here" or something, but if someone can actually READ Greek, they're going to be like, "Wait...wtf?" Even better if they know Latin.  :mrgreen:

So essentially, it would look like this: AD ASTRA PER ASPERA

Wide open road of my future now...
Its looking fucking narrow
All I know is that I dont know

All I know is that I don't know

We get told to decide
Just like as if im not gonna change my mind
All I know is that I dont know
All I know is that I don't know nothing
All I know is that I don't know
All I know is that I don't know nothing
Whatcha gonna do with yourself
Boy better make up your mind
Whatcha gonna do with yourself boy
You're running out of time
This time I got it all figured out
All I know is that I dont know

I know...I know, it's a good tune, but I was never a huge fan of Operation Ivy. In fact, I never got so sick of looking at tattered patches of their logo as well as the Dead Kennedys and Ramones on the back of every 14 year old 'punk' back in high school.

Quote from: Enrico Salazar on December 05, 2005, 03:10:24 PM
Last night Enrico found a peanut.  

It made him think of Jimmy Carter and the time Enrico had lunch with him and Margaret Trudeau.  Was in 1978, and lunch was held at Russian Tea Room in New York City - do not get hopes up, place has NOTHING to do with tea-bagging as Enrico knows it.  Is just for food.  Is sad.

During appetizers Jimmy Carter noticed tattoo on Enrico's hand of three black circles, one large and other two smaller.  He asked what these tattoos meant.  Enrico was outraged for few moments, after all lunch was supposed to be about management of world garbage and this clown asks about tattoo?  Then Enrico realized that tattoos can be cultural signposts . . . like tattoos on people in New Zealand . . . he relaxed and put down steak knife he had been ready to plunge into Carter's peanut loving neck.

Enrico explained that tattoos represented Salazorian cartoon Ricardo Rat, and that Enrico had been fan-club El Presidente as tiny child.  He had only been El Presidente for few weeks, though, then he killed the treasurer and vice El Presidente, took over offices and became Ricardo Rat Fan Club Generalissimo.  What can he say?  Is in his blood.

Margaret Trudeau asked if that was first tattoo Enrico ever got, and he laughed long and loud.  No, he said through chuckles, he got first tattoo at age five, then opened shirt and showed vulture with wings spread across chest.   Coincidentally enough, Margaret Trudeau also received first tattoo at age of five . . . she got tattoo of some freak cartoon character named Mickey Mouse . . . Enrico never heard of him.  Sounds like bullshit.

Jimmy Carter had never got tattoo, so Enrico and Margaret got him drunk and tattooed the words "Tricky Dick" on his chest.

What are your tattoos?

I have no tattoos.  However, if anyone can put a tattoo INSIDE my skin, I want a big "EAT A DICK" on the inside of my chest, so when I finally die, the coroner will find out what I really think of him and his fucking Rolex.

Post by: Suu on February 20, 2009, 03:02:24 PM
Deus ex Machina is a calque of Apo Mechanes Theos. The actual theatrical device was created by the Greek playwrights, and then you know, the Romans stole it because they could.

I went with Greek because...

A: It looks cooler
B: It makes stupid people wonder why I have fraternity letters on my back
C: I am part Greek (I am also part Roman I'm sure but...meh)

Of course my nickname for a while was Drama Queen, pretty much all through high school and college, and unfortunately not really in a positive light, so, you know, to add to the humor. So I went from the Drama Queen to the Sewing Goddess who makes theatrical and reenactment costumes...Bam.

It already feels like a sunburn. Lol, just a matter of time now...I'm going to be DYING on Monday. I'm keeping it constantly covered with cocoa butter, but we all know that pretty much does nothing, since dead skin will peel regardless.

I've found that Lubriderm works pretty good at keeping the flakiness down.

I just use Palmer's Cocoa Butter with Vitamin E. It's what they use as lube when they're drillin' so...I was told no Lubriderm, no petroleum jelly, and absolutely no fucking antibiotic ointment. I put on A&D before I go to bed, but only for like another night.
Title: Re: Tattoos
Post by: fomenter on February 22, 2009, 02:38:04 AM
the aloe Vera gel has nothing but cactus in it (bought at health store ) i would stick to the recommendations of the tattoo artists and people familiar with tattooing,

i scraped most of the skin off one side of my face in a mountain bike crash and used the above recipe a few times a day and had no infection and no scaring... it work's great for that..

aloe will actually pull the ink out.
it kinda works the same way as an antibiotic ointment.

the cocoa butter and a&d are the best things to use for it.

I have nine tattoos.

One my right forearm:
* Leaves and jungle foliage forming a frame around:
* A cave-woman drawn by Frank Cho
* A technicolor (orange and blue) snake wrapped around a branch from which hangs the Golden Apple, tempting the cave woman -- yes, I have a subversion of the Garden of Eden story on my arm
* A naked redhead with a green cloak pouring out the waters of life from a jug, symbolizing my birth sign (Aquarius).

One my right shoulder:
* A large Giger-style biomechanical image of a woman's face done entirely in gray.  Everyone who sees it calls it a "goddess face."  Few know which one.

One my left forearm:
* A Tibetian occult-style fanged skull penetrated by a jeweled dagger and entwined by a diamondback rattlesnake
* A screaming skull wreathed in blue flames
* A grinning skull with devil horns

On my right calf:
* a goblin (representing Mescaltio) hanging onto a out-of-control jackhammer (representing LSD).

Richter has a penchant for brewing double the allotted amount of espresso in concentrated POTS rather than the usual shot. Granted, espresso in theory has less caffeine than regular coffee, but make enough of the stuff and well, it's human rocket fuel.

He made a pot of coffee at work one day in which I partook two fairly large cups of and then proceeded to go on a vision quest through Downtown Crossing in Boston that afternoon preaching the word to anyone who would hear, then came back and passed out from the crash.

Way back, when TGRR was just a little girl, he was at Fort Drum, and was thinking of getting a tattoo of the 10th Mn patch on his left shoulder, like many people were.

Then his squadmate went, and they spelled "Mountain" wrong on the tab...they forgot the first "n", and my friend was in the "Moutain" division. 

TGRR decided he didn't really need a tattoo, after all.

Just saw this.  They still do this shit. Were I to do something of this nature, I would not get unit patches.  I don't want them instantly recognisable as military.  I would go with something representing units I have deployed with (and I am about sick of the 82nd...what the fuck do I need to do to get away from this shit.  I am thinking of doing something else with my life...).  I am more likely to get other things that are more important to me, than the units though.

Anyway, this is one of the reasons I don't really want any words on me.  Especially not something from a language I don't know.  Maybe binary (but not in 0 and 1).

Whoa, those are nice!  I've been meaning to get more.

My tattoos are a bit autobiographical, representing something important to me at the time. I currently only have two, the penguin holding the 1up in his lap (or buttfucking it, if you ask my brother), which is suppose to represent my computer geek and gamer nerd tendancies, and a KMK logo on my back, to represent two of my favorite de-stressers.

Both were free, done by my brother.  In fact, the KMK logo was the first tattoo he ever gave anyone, and the Penguin the second.  I was his guinea pig.

I'm not sure about putting a Discordian tattoo on my body. It's like...letting doom in through the front door.
Great, now that I've read that I need to seriously work at convincing myself not to tattoo "Surprise Me, Eris" on my ass.

Well, YOU can get away with it...

What's people's reaction on it in Norway, and how about the rest of Europe?

I have to admit, in my earlier twenties I found a party theme based upon a very similar nazi subversion of a "cute icon" absolutely hilarious, though :)

I've had only one negative reaction to it. A swede, she said it was 'wrong'.
It's a hit among anti-fascist folks.

Right Arm


I dig the tower tattoo, man.

Thankees.  That's my symbol.  My girl has one tattooed on her arm as well, although hers is a bit more feminine.

Mine aren't done. I've been too busy to finish them.
So here I am with just outlines. Oh well.

I don't think my half sleeve is getting finished anytime soon, either. Now my my sister's old guy is actually working around the corner from where I live, I'm going to pop in there and talk to him.

The guy who did all of my work prior to Oarstroker went off the ego-deep end, and I can't afford him.

I believe this proves the formula

[(slm)/pj+fx]+(m-yvm)=zr

Short Lived Meme divided by Poor Judgment plus X Foresight, plus Money-Y dollars spent on vodka=z units of time until regret is total.

X, of course, is set to 0. Y is probably a significantly higher number. Z is probably a very low number.

I actually really like the image. It's ghastly, but what an icon of the times.

It's a perfect symbol of the madness which lurks deep beneath the surface of consumer culture.



It kind of reminds me of Robocop - in the part of the movie where Robocop realizes he can't violate his programming, and it's driving him crazy. In a moment of quiet reflection, he takes a screwdriver to his head and removes his helmet. The robot faces his own humanity and it seems foreign to him. It's a really eerie, bewildering scene.
