Where do they plug it in? Or alternatively, how do they change the batteries? Do they just cut themselves open to replace the lights when th ebatteries run out?

Just hook it into your arteries with a little turbine and it'll stay powered for as long as you're eating double cheese burgers!

(i'm kidding, LED's use next to no power, the battery should last for 100,000 hours or some bollocks like that, so it's around 10 years before it quits lighting up, at which point you just replace it with whatever new tech is out then)

I hope she was drunk/high when she got it and she just stays drunk/high for the rest of her life so she never has to realize what she's done.

Question: anyone know if tattoo artists largely have a no drunks policy? Drunk tats explain 90% of the poo poo in this thread but you'd think "we'll tattoo you when you're too drunk to say no" would be a poor endorsement.

Tattoo Factory in Chicago literally bought and built a bar next to it

https://www.dnainfo.com/chicago/20140131/uptown/tattoo-factory-owner-opening-drink-ink-bar-next-door-his-shop

That place caters to the drunk crowd, tons of artists who all do walk-ins and the place is huge and every wall is covered with those generic "I am un-creative" pics of generic tramp stamps/tribal/Chinese characters.

Like this, but much, MUCH worse.





Good artists will refuse to do tattoos on someone who is obviously inebriated. But there's a whole poo poo ton of poo poo "artists" out there.



E: I don't even need to post examples because like 90% of the artists portfolios are terrible

You really should be at a place classy enough to not even need the sign.

If you aren't making an appointment, you might have a shirt artists.

They do designs and then silk screen them onto T-Shirts. Probably better to go with a shirt artist since you can always take the T-Shirt off.

I'm assuming it refers to the A-shirt (otherwise affectionately known as a "wifebeater"), frequently worn by kitchen tattoo "artists."

Nah, they're actually pretty nuts about health and safety. Before they'll give you a license, they come by and inspect your equipment and the condition of the premises, and will do periodic inspections. Recently, a couple of my buddies that run a parlor were bitching about being told by the state they had to relocate because the building they were in was too old.

The simplest way to avoid bad tattoo artists is to never get a tattoo because they are really loving stupid and only exist so that people on the internet can laugh at the horrible poo poo you permanently had put on your body.

Both places are largely appointment-only, they just happen to be neighborhoods with lots of bars, so I can understand the concern.

If your kids' names are some poo poo like Jaydynn and Cayeitlynnynn, you need to have them removed.

Your wrists, not the tattoos.

Idk, depending on how you look at it it's less dumb than getting a band name or something tattooed on. Like, you made the kids and all. It's a matter of being proud, like when people get patriotic tats or other group/characteristic pride type things. (not that that precludes anythign in any of those categories from being stupid, just saying i get why people do it. Mos tpeople want their tattoos to have meaning and for a lot of people ther'es nothing more meaningful than their kids :shobon: )

It's objectively dumb as gently caress. You already know your kids names already and no one else gives a poo poo.

It is just the sign of a person who is so starved for attention that they daub names on themselves hoping some random rear end in a top hat will come up to them and ask "Who are Jocelyn and Brad?" so they can bore yet another person with a rambling soliloquy about their kids and how they are soooooooo amazing.

All tattoos are loving stupid and have no meaning. They are merely a desperate attempt to make yourself look more interesting when you have gently caress all going for you.

Awesome gimmick, duder. You should head over to Games and tell everyone in the Dark Souls 3 thread that videogames are a waste of time for children, then stop by AI and tell them that owning an car is just compensating for the fact that you have a small penis.

A good takedown for CC would be that all hobbies and artistic endeavors are futile wastes of time that nobody cares about.

Drugs are objectively dumb as gently caress. You already know the euphoria is just chemically induced and no one else gives a poo poo.

It is just the sign of a person who is so starved for feeling that they dab hoping some random rear end in a top hat will come up to them and ask "hey you wanna smoke?" so they can bore yet another person with a rambling soliloquy about mandatory minimum laws and how hemp is soooooooo amazing.

All mind altering substances are loving stupid and have no purpose. They are merely a desperate attempt to feel good and make your life interesting when you have gently caress all going for you.
