Inked Up

Would you get your favorite literary quote or book character tattooed on your body? Of course you would...or at least please, go with the long deceased. Hopefully nothing shameful will come up about them and you won't regret that tattoo.

At any rate, check out Contrariwise to see those that would and by the way, Papercuts got me hip to this.

I would consider getting the Continental Op inked on my left bicep, but everyone would ask me "what's up with the Tony Soprano tat and why is he wearing old timey clothes?"

That's pretty cool. I've always liked encyclopedias, I wonder if I have enough room...never mind.

Dale,

As you've probably seen on TV, the only limit to how much ink a body can have, is the person's height.

Not sure I have a favorite literary quote, but I'm practically sold on a 'Where the Wild Things Are' scene across my lower back.

Creepy,

Now that's a tat I could get behind, but would the darker parts of it age well over time?

The Continental Op?! That would be cool...

I'd be torn between something hardboiled, or something Irish, or something southern. Best I just leave it alone.

Bubs,

I've reached the same conclusion.
