I have a tattoo of a bar code on my right shoulder, it has my date of birth as the numbers underneath. I have used it as proof of age once !!!!!!!

LOL really?

Yes really. I love it. Would post a pic if i could stand behind myself and take one

Oh you've got to, I want to see this, how funny!

LOL I've awoken an animal!

I guess by getting it, it makes me feel in more control of myself.  I've made a conscious desicion to do something that I chose to do, which is individual to me.

And is maybe a statement to whoever I'm with, that I make my own decisions, and have my own mind. 

Like when you play poker, to me that says you are someone who likes to "live on the edge" and arent scarred to take risks.

Is that more helpful for you?

Ah, I can rest easy now, thank you. Yes, it makes much more sense.

Rather than 'not being scared to take risks' I more scared of not taking risks. Nothing scares me more than the thought of waking one day to find out I'm in my 70's and haven't done anything with my life.

Faith no More - that's very cool to know someone from a great band Sark. I will live my life vicariously through you for 3 days I think. I'll say, I kinda know a guy online from a poker site who knows a fine rock star. Kudos to me I think.

Dave, I got my first tattoo top of my arm and only by walking around in a vest would it be seen. Took me about 7 days to go get another one that would peep out, very seductively in my opinion, from under the arm of a T shirt - have a fair few now and it's hard to explain to other people why one likes them so much. Don't think it's to with the kind of people I mix with but never met a lady who didn't like them on me too .. s'abonus. But, point is, I definitely want them to be seen.

I do think it is possible that tigs, you may walk aroound with your mouth open a lot for a few weeks until the novelty wears off. In my experience, and as a student of emotional intelligence, we all tend to want to be noticed for the thing we do for our 'personal' enjoyment - just takes a while to gain that self awareness I think.

The shell collector wants people to know he collects shells and have people form an opinion from the information, the train spotter.... and so on. Not many people who are true islands.

I think thats really good advise for someone my age, because it will always make you do things your a wee bit scarred to do.

It took me ages to get my tongue done, but once I did it, it kind of made me less scarred to do something else.Opening doors as you say!  Bit cheesy I know  

Like I'm planning on moving away to somewhere else,  I've always had reservations about it, but now I'm less likely to think, and more likely to do.

Does that help when your playing poker?  Are you less botherd about putting all your chips in?

When I play live, I never like putting my chips in the middle, because I'm a bit worried about what would happen next

Aww, tigs, no one ever put one of them good post things on one of my posts x

Enjoy the piercing just don't be poking your tongue out too much :-)

[Claw75]

I don't know how old you are tigs, but I would say a piercing is a much better option than a tattoo for a youngster who wants to express their freedom to make decisions.  I got a tattoo when I was 21 for no other reason than I wanted to get one.  Didn't have a clue what design I wanted right until I got into the shop and started leafing through the book.  Nothing really caught my eye, so I just settled on one so as not to miss my appointment time.  I liked it for about 6 months, and sneered in the face of anyone who told me I would regret it when I was older.

Now?  I absolutely hate the thing.  Once I've got enough spare cash, it will come off, but due to some of colours in it it will never go completely.

[tigscoco]

Aww, I'll carry a sponge about with me, it'll be fine.


Claw I'm 20, will be 21 in jan, and I totally agree with what you said, I am planning to get a tattoo soon, but I'm gona put a bit more thought into it I think.

I figure I'm safe with a piercing, because I can always take it out at the end of the day

  ,  sorry if my post looked like I knew the guy.   My friend copied Mike Patton from FNM after meeting him at a Festival, I have never met the guy.   He went through a phase of copying everything about Mike Patton, hair, piercings and even tried to sing like him in a band  .  I once saw Rolf Harris, unfortunately I was too young to grow a beard like his and my musical talent is limited so the wobble board was a deffinate no no .

exactly - you are obviously a lot more sensible than I was at your age.  I was so irresponsible I was already married!!

Quick mover!

I'm to unpredictable to be pinned down to a marrage!  I was nearly a mummy last year, but blessing in disguise I think.

But, random is good, I don't want to lead a boring life LOL. Never in the same place, doing the same thing for too long!

Oh you've got to, I want to see this, how funny!

This is the best i can do with a mobile phone stretched over my shoulder !!!
