My Dry wife doesn't like the idea of me getting a tat, much less one that celebrates drinking. I was watching a tattoo show on the history channel yesterday morning and saw something cool. They have this new ink out that is invisible but only shows up under a black light. Was thinking of getting the MDM logo done up in that on my forearm. Would be kinda cool, like a secret society sort of thing.
Beer's just being social. Whiskey's drinkin'.

I've seen those, some of them look really cool. You can also get one done in white ink which is pretty inconspicuous, and a little more visible in plain light than the black light ink.

i've got a bar code from a rum bottle on me somewhere. when i answer where the bar code is from, i am sometimes responded to with strange stares. if i'm not in the mood to answer questions about my chronic alcoholism, i tell them it's from a wedding gift, which is also true, and tends not to offend the mormons.

I'm not cool enough for tats or piercings, but a caouple months ago I was watching that "Taboo" show on NatGeo about that shit. Then they showed people getting branded and I thought "Well hell I can do that". It was late, and apparently I was just drunk enough to come up with the idea of heating up my knife blade with a torch, but not drunk enough to set the house on fire.
I'm sure I had a design in mind when I started the branding process, but it just looks like a mangled up scab

I want a skin-colored tattoo that will cover my entire body.
That way I can endure all the pain, and feel like a tough guy, while avoiding the stigma of being a mindless trend-follower.
Maybe I'll leave an area of un-tattooed skin in the shape of the MDM logo - no one will be able to see it, but I'll know it's there

It's very trendy nowadays in France: all the youngsters who enlist seem to have one done even before they reach for the gates of the regiment.

I always thought the Arrogant Bastard logo would make a good tattoo.

couldn't find a bigger image of it though.

For all you people who are thinking about getting a booze tattoo, I would urge you to put your money where your skin is, so to speak.

And I have every right to speak condescendingly, of course, because I have "UISCE BEATHA" tattooed across my back from shoulder to shoulder in elaborate Celtic knot work letters.

I've been trying to get a picture of it online since I got it 14 months ago. Two pictures of it have been taken, but the girl who snapped them refuses to email them to me. Hmmm ...

But my girlfriend said she'd take a picture of it and email it to me. Now I just gotta stay undrunk enough to remind her to snap it.
