something light-how many DUers are tattooed?
I have two...a new zealand design on the small of my back like this

and a sun tattoo on my right shoulder with the kanji for "love" sort of like this


I am debating my third one.

3. ...
That isn't your Japanese tattoo in the picture, right? Because the one in the picture isn't the kanji for love

6. Not me...yet...
I'm hoping to get one this fall...but I have to work up the money and decide on what I want and where. Accepting suggestions, of course. :)

7. Not me, and for the same reason I have no piercings which I
find very attractive in the young... because some day I will be eighty, and any tattoo, any piercing, will be a grotesque thing to behold. This has held me back!

I understand why you might like tattoos.

9. I am!
I can't take a picture because I'm not an orangutan, but I have a full moon with waxing and waning moons on either side, in blue. It's between my back and my shoulder. I got it on a stupid whim when i was 19 because in my head in meant "constant change" (it's also a Goddess symbol, but I like the other implications more.) The fact that I have a tattoo that means change amuses me, because I love irony.

I used to have a pierced tongue, but it got taken out after a car accident. Every one in a while I miss it and I (and my fiance as well) sometimes want to get it redone. However, I have zero desire to "tawk lak thiff" for a month again.

Maybe I'll get another tattoo.. I hadn't really considered it, but hell, why not?

11. I have eleven
10 of them are dots that were placed to line up lead blocks for radiation treatments.

1 is the head of a unicorn on my left shoulder blade.

15. None so far.
I sometimes threaten to get an anti-Bush tattoo as part of my midlife crisis.

17. I got two
A celtic dragon by my left nipple. A Pentagram on the inside of my right thigh. I want two and a half more... an omniscate on my shoulder, the words "Bad Wolf" on my chest and "All acts of love and pleasure are my rituals" around the pentagram.

Khash.
