    I know a girl who has quite a big Sonic the Hedgehog tattoo slightly to the left of her mons pubis region.

    ^ This.

    Henna is what I use. I love it. It'll wash off in about 3-4 weeks, so it's pretty reasonable. I'm not in favour of getting permanent tattoos.

    haha I acctually thought of that idea before the griever, and get it real detailed.

    Im suprised I got anything on this, hence the reason Ive not replied in a while(my old posts were always ignored alot)

    I see a few of you keep saying the pain would be bad, and Im sure it would, but I have grown tolerent to a good bit of pain on my body. Also, Ive always been told that for some reason getting a tattoo while drunk or high was a bad idea, They say it makes the ink fade quicker or something like that lol.

    I just wanted opinions of my fellow nerds that could probably understand, and I planned to think on it a while so I could save up the money to get it, Im thinking of getting it on my right shoulder blade...dont know how big yet though.

    My understanding of it is that being drunk, high or otherwise intoxicated by a foreign substance generally causes an expanding of the blood vessels. So when you get tattoo-ed, you'd bleed more. Might be totally wrong on this as I'm not cool and I don't have ink =]

    Right shoulder blade would hurt though. Not a lot of meat there. If it were me, I'd go on the arm. But then again, the shoulder blade tatt is cooler and easier to conceal for times when exposed tattoos aren't kosher.

    and it would be mutilating your face.

    Seriously, if the opinion of your "fellow nerds" is one of trepidation then you should take a step back and really think about it. there is a really risk that u'll hate it in a few years

    I've heard that as well. It's kind of a moot point I think as I don't know any reputable tattoo place that would do a tattoo for someone who's visibly drunk or high.

    I think you need to seriously consider henna first before trying things that are permanent. Henna takes about 3~4 weeks to wash off, and after it's done you can either put it right back, try it in a different spot, or try something entirely new, anywhere you want, each time it's washed off. With henna, you basically have unlimited options here, and you'll be able to tell if you like it or not. As a bonus, it won't be there anymore when you're in your 40's and your skin starts to get wrinkly and saggy.

    Since the origins of this design are basically harmless, then there's no harm in getting it since I believe that people should mostly be concerned about getting designs that they like and think looks good or cool. However, getting this may cause some weird looks and a few raised eyebrows by people that are familiar with FF VIII, but aren't really "hardcore fans" of the game or anything. Some of them are likely to think "uhhhh okay... I guess he REALLY likes FF VIII lol...." [kinda like how I feel when I see people using Sharingan contact lenses as shown here]. However, I'm not sure exactly where on your shoulder blade you plan on getting this, or in what angle it'll be in, so I'm not sure if people will only see this tattoo if you have your shirt off or not. Regardless, if you don't really care about said people, then by all means go for it, though I still recommend trying it out with henna first for a long while to see if you truly still want it.

    For the record, although I think it's somewhat strange to get it as a tattoo, I do like the Griever symbol. It's actually very cool [I think lions are awesome beasts].



    Here's a Brazilian man that got it as a tattoo on his back.

    see i just can't see the appeal. In my head I think it looks looks a bit "Three lions on my shirt" like the England football team. Sorry everyone has a right to there own opinion but i think it looks really naff

    This is always the reason I've been told that you shouldn't get pierced/tattooed drunk/high ... thinning of the blood by alcohol or whatever. I remember I got my nose and lip pierced after a night out drinking and boy did I ever bleed.

    That, and a drunk/high person isn't really to be trusted to sit still for 2 hours and get tattooed.

    edit: Oh, and I actually kind of dig that Griever tattoo posted. I just would never, ever get it done myself.

    These are true statements. Drinking may seem like a good idea in an attempt to "nullify" or "lessen" the pain you would normally experience, but it does have said consequences.

    Exactly how I feel actually. I wouldn't do this tattoo myself, but I have to admit that it does look cool. Hey, it looks like we agreed on something.
