kelel01 1 #1 December 7, 2003 Ok, so I just went out and got a tattoo of 2 closing pins-- one blue and one black (BSBD), and what did my whuffo friends say? "That looks like sperm." I'm sorry, but a closing pin does not look like f***ing sperm! Geez! But I love it, so screw them! Kelly Edited to add picture to original post Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kelel01 1 #3 December 7, 2003 I'll probably get some tomorrow-- my camera's batteries are dead, but I want to know what people think, not that it'll make a darn bit of difference now. Kelly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kelel01 1 #6 December 7, 2003 It's on the inside of my left ankle. I already had a tattoo on my lower back, so that was out. Kelly And I'm working on the pics. I'm hunting down batteries right now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kelel01 1 #9 December 7, 2003 Ok, here it is! The blue is actually on top, which I thought was more fitting given its meaning. Thanks to Kris and Jimbo for all of the help resizing the picture! Kelly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kennedy 0 #10 December 7, 2003 Stupid whuffos. It looks awesome! Good choice. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jillr 0 #11 December 7, 2003 and to the wuffos that don't think it looks like sperm... it'll look like an artsy "69" definately an ice breaker at the bar. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Taz 0 #12 December 7, 2003 It's awesome. By the way, I have given some ridiculous answers to whuffos who ask stupid questions about my closing pin necklace... even if they think it looks like sperm, they WILL believe anything so go ahead and have some fun if they're making you peeved.

kelel01 1 #14 December 7, 2003 Quoteand to the wuffos that don't think it looks like sperm... it'll look like an artsy "69" That was kind of the idea I was going for, but I wasn't trying to get a 69 tattooed on myself. I just modeled it after the cancer symbol, but I asked him to stagger it a bit. So that response won't surprise me either. Kelly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Paige 0 #16 December 7, 2003 They look really cool, bet it had to hurt. I've got one on my sternum (12 others-var. locations) and that hurt, can't imagine the neck! Keep neosporin on 'em, they look dry. Dry, scabby tattoos are bad because the scabs that flake off take ink with them. This means more frequent touch up's and spotty tattoos-the color will be missing in some places leaving things to look like poka dots. Scabs would be esp. bad for the blue one. Black is used to outline most tattoos because it holds the color in so be careful with the blue one, it didn't look outlined in black. !!!CONGRATS!!!Tunnel Pink Mafia Delegate www.TunnelPinkMafia.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ACMESkydiver 0 #18 December 7, 2003 Those look great, Kelly! Also could be viewed as just an artsy variation of yin/yang symbol again for those that don't skydive... I like it.

kelel01 1 #23 December 8, 2003 Sorry, Mouth. I showed it to several people when Mike was showing his. Thanks for jumping with me today! Also, thanks to everyone who offered advice on how to care for it. I'm trying to keep it covered with some ointment, but it's still drying out. I'll just pay really close attention to it! Your help is appreciated! Kelly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your help is appreciated! Kelly When mine was healing I was told to make sure I wash it twice daily and apply Curel Ultra Healing lotion on it about six times daily. My tat healed nicely and I never had any problems. In fact I liked the lotion so much in general that I still use it to this day! ~skysprite Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
