I got my first tattoo this year. And I must say, it has become such a fast part of me that I forget about it sometimes! But no regrets.

I have 4. A large black and white fox ( Who I named Todd), a paw print on my right foot (for my dog Dousie), a depiction of Artemis's wolf from the greek picture Artemis dreaming (Artemis protects the animals and in return the animals protect her) and the quote "Anything worth doing is worth doing Right" by Hunter S Thompson.

I really want to get Needle, Arya's sword, with the phrase "Fear cuts deeper than swords" and the symbol Rafiki draws to represent Simba from the Lion King (the original cartoon one)

Isn't that weird how that works? I have some paw prints (also including a paw print with a moon and a paw print with a heart) and a song lyric that catch me by surprise sometimes :lol:

I recently got my latest tattoo in memory of my sister and it is by far my favorite, so when it does catch my eye I stare at it for awhile. It is an old book with leaves and a ribbon holding a key based off of the Book of Lost Things that is in "The Book of Lost Things" by John Connolly.

I have no tattoos and have no interest in getting any.

I wouldn't say I despise them but I don't see the fascination. I operate on the theory that "would you put a bumper sticker on a Lamborghini or BMW or Maserati or Cadillac?"

My dad had 5 or 6 tattoos. He got them in the Navy. He would go on shore leave, get drunk and get a tattoo. That's what I think of when I see tattoos. Someone must have gotten drunk.

I have none. I've been thinking of getting one, but I'm scared that I'll get tired of it or it will lose significance over time.

I have one for now. A brain with a rose growing out of it. Would love to get a James and the Giant Peach tattoo!

I have three tattoos. I've got a black phoenix on my back, that was my first one. On my left upper thigh I have an Avatar the Last Airbender tattoo, with Twi and La the koi fish, the four elements that Iroh drew in the sand for Zuko are around them, in a sort of very simple black drawn white lotus-ish kind of design. Then on my right thigh I have a twin tattoo with my brother Joe. That one is Legend of Zelda. Mine is Ocarina of Time and his is Majora's Mask, as they were kinda twin games released on the N64, and they hold a lot of nostalgia for us both.
