Who has them and how many? I’ve yet to maim myself and seriously doubt I ever do. I’m absolutely amazed at how prevalent they are out here in Tejas. Seems everyone has sleeves and neck tats including a couple of elementary teachers I’ve met..

I have one on my right butt cheek.
Had way too much fun in Columbus, GA back during the late Summer of 1979.
The group I was with left the Inferno Club (a little naughty bar right by the river) and that is the last thing I remember until I woke up the next morning at Patio Apartments in Auburn.

Back to my butt--only one-a Tiger head wearing the old fashioned cap with WDE in Burnt Orange underneath. Sounds strange but I do not recall going into the tattoo parlor nor anything else after we left the Inferno Club.

I can admit it now--someone got the best of me and a dear friend took care of my young, naive ass.

Blaze ON!!
 
Ive got one. My CWO3 paid for everybody in my shop to get the same one. It’s a tribal sun with USMC underneath it, all in black ink. The symbology has dual meaning in that the USMC represents the earth underneath the sun and that everything on earth belongs to the Marines (its there for the taking and we’re the baddest mother ****ers on the planet and no one is going to stop us).
 
My dad always told me never to get one because I would get addicted and keep getting more. I got one on my back left shoulder blade to prove him wrong. Got it when I was 16. 16 yrs later still just have the one.

Showed him.
:rolleyes:

Why are you in Texas? Believe you’ve mentioned being there a few times......

Also, do PMs not work here?
 
Never had the desire to get one nor do I have any convictions strong enough that warrant a permanent place on my body. I mean, I like Kurt Vonnegut quotes but I don’t need any inked into my flesh

One on my left wrist under my watch band. It is a memorial tat for my Father.

Got SWEETMEAT tattooed in big block letters down the length of my...

Okay, not really. But my dad says he worked with a guy long time back who was nicknamed Sweet Meat. Said he would win money by betting he could lay twelve silver (back in those days) half dollars edge-to-edge along the length of his pecker. Basically pay six bucks in silver you get to see the monster. Or at least that is how my old brain remembers the story. ;)

I'm not sure when, but I'm going to get a sleeve tat on my left calf. Will be a mural dedicated to my family (heritage, lineage, military service, etc.).

Where at in Texas? I love some parts of that state and never want to go back to other parts.
 
Abilene. Dry, dusty, and you either have to be a cowboy or mar your entire body with tats. There’s no in between, it seems.

Been there but very briefly. I was in a rodeo out there and was probably there for about 4 hours. Saw lots of cowboys though.

I spent the night, one solitary night, in Wichita Falls, TX in a $30/night hotel. Scariest night of my life. I'm pretty sure that I witnessed a murder.

My best friend and his family in high school was from Abilene. They all live in Dallas/Flower Mound now.

Don't think I've been to Wichita Falls. Been to a lot of small towns in east Texas though and around the Dallas/Ft Worth area.

were it not for the whole having to be presentable as a potential face of the company to potential customers and suppliers - I’d be covered from the neck down

ok, not covered - but I like tattoos... I’ve got ideas for a sleeve, and could probably get away with it and keep it covered at the office - but the better options is to become independently wealthy and not have to worry about it, so I should probably keep working on that part for now

Same here.

I really want an eagle with the head on my shoulder and one wing across my chest and the other wing across my back.

I have an idea for a sleeve but I want to be an executive one day and I know some still dont above of tattoos
