So here's my new tattoo, for those who care to see it, and allow me to say, after years of contemplating getting one and always being too chicken about the pain and the permanence -- it's awesome. I love it. Love it love it love it. Oddly enough, it made me almost immediately want another one. Sociopathic tendencies? Nah.
And for those of you fellow chickens, I'll tell you it's not that bad. It felt like the guy was pinching the SH*T out of me for a minute or two, but for the most part, it feels more like someone is writing really hard on you with a ball-point pen. I was surprised.

I'm in awe of your machismo.
