I prefer the one between the shoulder blades as its a bit more of a challenge to hit.


srsly though, when I was on internship this guy I worked with had a tramp stamp. I asked him, while trying to not laugh, why he got it there. He said, "well everyone has a sleeve, or one on their upper back.. I wanted to get mine in a place that everyone doesnt have one." Well, ya, no shit, theres probably a reason not many guys have one there...

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

I know this thread is a month old but I must share:

Friend and I are at a restaurant and commented on the waitresses tattoo..which I have forgotten but her answer was "You should see my boyfriends, someone bet him he wouldnt tattoo his nickname on his forehead."
"Really, whats his nick?"
"SQUIRREL"
"Wow"
"yeah, he got it in big letters...his buddy 'Coondog' got it in small letters so the band of his cap covers it when he wears it backwards"

The next month we were in there again and sure enough, sitting across from us was a guy with SQUIRREL in inch tall letters across his forehead.

Just wow

If you get a tattoo, this comes with the territory.
