Tatoo Ideas

[emotional leper]

I'm getting a tatoo.
I'm planning on getting the Go Rin No Sho tatooed on my back, but I wanted to know what everyone thought of this:

[DukkhaWaynhim]

"That's no moon..."

[Mortice Root]

Awesome! Go for it!

[emotional leper]

I'm thinking of changing the words to "Never Forget," since most of my countrymen don't have a firm grasp of the English language.

...uhm...

For some of us, the phrase Never Forget has a totally different connotation EL. I don't have a problem with you using it, but it may bring some interesting comments from your family your way.

True. Unfortunately, I think in South Carolina I'd get beaten up for making fun of 9/11 instead of being insensitive about the Holocaust.

The idea of you getting beaten again for any reason gives me intense shivers. Think this over carefully, OK?

I think as long as you look at all the different options and wording etc and the different meanings and find one you are happy to have on your body for the rest of your days it will be just fine.
It doesn't really matter what others think as it will be for you, not them.

Thats my general stance on tattoos, no matter what the design.

I have one, it took me a long time to get it completed (thanks to a slight aversion to needles) but I'm happy with it now and it was worth the wait in my mind.

I'll be interested in seeing your final design when you decide upon it

I'm discussing it with a friend who has alot of tattoos, and so far we're leaning towards two tie-fighters zooming towards an exploding DeathStar.

Trying to come up with a short caption that conveys, "Never Forget" but with a word synonymous with "Remember".

[Chrysalis]

Its good to get imput from others and discuss it. Are you planning of doing the design first by hand yourself or getting a tattooist to draw one up for you?
Will it be in full colour or just black and white?

The caption will be the important part. I'm sure you will find something perfect.

Well, the deathstar will just be black and grey, so whatever colours the text are will be in colour.

I'm thinking about getting it on my forearm, just below the elbow.

I'm also thinking about what it would be like to explain the tattoo to (someone's) grandchildren.

Quite a sensitive area to get tattooed I should think. At least it won't be on a bone and you will be able to see it which is a plus.

Explaining the reasons behind it shouldn't be too hard as you will be able to tell them the reasons you chose it and why you chose the design you did. They may not fully grasp the meaning (dependng on their ages) but they will know it must have meant a lot to you to make you get a perminant mark for life.

More like I don't want to get arrested for accosting someone else's grandkids to explain my tatoo.

"You see, Johnny..."

"My name's Sam..."

"Whatever, Billy..."

[Chrysalis]

You have a good point there...

'Never Far Far Away'
'Forever Honored'
'Ever Enshrined'
'Guard the Memory'
'We Suffice'
'The Empire Remains'
'Avenge Us!'
'One Payment Left'
'<Circle/Slash> Red-5'
'Ewoks Suck'

We're thinking about getting it together now.

[DukkhaWaynhim]

'Ever Vigilant'
'Tragedy Enshrined'
'Sorrow Lingers'
'Our Darkest Day'
'In Memoriam'
'Empire Fidelis'
'Needa's Lament'

[Menolly]

You're good, dw.
Damn good.

[emotional leper]

"Our Darkest Day"

I like it

[Sunbaneglasses]

How about simply "Remember The Deathstar" as a play on "Remember The Alamo"?
