If you were to get a tattoo...

[InsomniJack]

I can't say I would get a tattoo due to the aging process of the body. But if I were, I'd get the word "Zero" tattooed on the knuckles of my left hand (based on the Smashing Pumpkins song), and The Punisher skull on the back of my right hand

 

[Wertbag]

Full colour silver fern wrapped around shoulder.

 

[CombiBlood]

I wouldn't get one... Seems like it is unnecessary and lame at my age (eighteen)

I see way too many people with "Hey look at my cool new tattoo it is a symbol for peace is love and love is to have peace"
1: I say hipster
2: If any one were to get a tattoo don't just get words and little flowers and vines in-tangling them, get something better.

I say to clarify I think this for anyone in High School, if your out of it go nuts. If you are a freshman don't get it and if you do get one get a professional to do it. If a tattoo symbolizes something I respect that.

If I were to get one it would be a stylized font of the number "42"

 

[Kwaren]

I would wear this proudly.

Cookie for reference.

 

[Goofguy]

The words "Ka is a wheel and it turns round." wrapping around my right forearm. Or on the outside of a wagon wheel that has twelve beams going out from the center, with the Beam Guardians at the end of each. This would either be on the right shoulder blade or would be in the center of my back. Cookie for what the words and stuff comes from.

Stephen King's Dark Tower series. The whole 'ka' aspect is akin to fate or destiny and is the underlying theme of Roland's quest for the tower... and the two 'ka-tets' he formed along the way.

P.S. I'll take a peanut butter cookie, plz.

 

[DeathsHands]

A massive Hydralisk... either around my arm or on my back. That'd be badass.

Oh, and a swarm symbol under my eye.

Yeeeeeeah.

 

[crudus]

Spoiler: this fucker

It is a religious symbol. And bad badass.

 

[Naheal]

Pretty much this:

I'm sure all the skinheads would love you.

very close to a skinhead symbol.

Gnostic cross, mate. It's a religious thing for me. (Yes, I am Gnostic)

 

[Tdc2182]

Just throwing this out there; You don't want a tattoo that is based off video games/movie/television etc.

And on a hypocritical note, I discovered I have a rather surprising talent with the Black Ops emblem editor.

Edit: That means I would make my own, if that wasn't clear.

 

[Chefodeath]

God, you people have the tackiest tastes, especially for something thats going to be MELDED ON YOUR FUCKING FLESH.

I'd probably go with something elegant and simple. Celtic design perhaps.

 

[thethingthatlurks]

Toss up between the Dirac equation and "Lucky Me, Lucky Mud" on my arm.

 

[Resetti's_Replicas]

A gear. It's got to be something I can easily adapt to my changing tastes; a gear can mean many different things.

 

[drwow]

A huge 8bit mega man across my back

 

[MisterGobbles]

If I ever started to get tattoos, which I very well may, I wouldn't want to get just one - over time, I would probably cover at least my arms and legs with them. There just doesn't really seem like a point to only getting one.

I would probably start with a Deathbat (logo of A7X), seeing as how they are one of my favorite bands, and the logo can also mean many things.

Also, someday I'm gonna go totally Memento on this ***** and just cover my body in words important to my life so I never forget ANYTHING =P

 

[BehattedWanderer]

I have one, on my right wrist, of the Starmen symbol from Earthbound. I'm wanting a few more, and have the ideas, and a few of the drawings laid out. It's really just about laying out the cash for it, and the time to do it.

 

[figday]

What would it be? I don't know if I'd ever get one, but if I decide to get one, it would be this, on my left shoulder:

For those of you who don't know, the translation is "Rogue Squadron".

I would get a tattoo of my face
on my face
only slightly to the side
then I would stand in front of a 3D movie theater
and ruin peoples lives!

okay that made my stomach hurt

 

[figday]

well for me, id only get a tattoo when something very meaningful happens in my life. something life-changing or one ill never forget ever. so far...nothing -_-"

..but if HL:EP3 finally comes out then maybe, just maybe..

 

[Evidencebased]

A researcher I know recently discovered a sweet new drug (yeah, yeah, the useful kind, not the fun kind ) and once the crystal structure was worked out he had that structure tattooed on his leg. That would really be the only way I'd get a tattoo, myself; if I'd genuinely discovered or created something cool that would be a lasting personal achievement. Gotta keep it geeky classy y'all!

 

[Vault Citizen]

I have three tattoos with three more planned (a blue lantern logo tattoo with the words "all will be well", a small star on my chest and a wolf on my arm)

the tattoos I already have are

(the reason the last one is just a drawing rather than a photo like the other two is it is on my bum, got it mainly for my fiancee)
