HOMESICK

Ian sends these knuckles in:

I decided to get homesick tattooed on my knuckles simply because I had a really hard time growing up and never hard your stereotypical “HOME” life.
It has NOTHING to do with the album of the same name by the band A DAY TO REMEMBER even though I do love that band haha.

SIDE SHOW

Dixie King says:

I have been sideshow obsessed for years now and was really excited to get this. The biggest problem was I am an elementary school teacher (art at least, so they expect me to be a bit odd) and knuckle tattoos are not generally excepted in that setting. My wonderful artist, Jorge Moreno (Trinity Tattoo Longwood, FL) offered to do ’em in UV ink so i could still have ’em and keep my job. I am so happy with them!

ROFL LAMO

Ummm… Yep, we got a funny one here:

My name is Jeff Cotter and the story behind me getting mine done is that Im a 28 year old man who recently moved 2500km for work and has changed careers from office worker to mine worker. I wanted to get something funny as most of the knuckle tatt’s I’ve seen are way to serious… I did it for the lulz.

Food, Passions, and Symbols

I recently ended up at Your Mom’s Burger Bar in East Austin. Aside from the awesome food, there are knuckle tattoos. First up, we have Philip’s knuckles.

They are all things he likes. On the left: Snow cones, spray paint, pizza, PBR, and on the right, traditional symbols.

In the news, mispelled knuckle tattoos

The Huffing Post has an article on misspelled tattoos. Unfortunately, it doesn’t take long to get to the set of knuckle tattoos pictured below.

tattoo should be spell checked

To read the rest of the article check out: Misspelled Tattoos: Permanent And Hilarious. I think I would have said permanent and tragic instead of “hilarious”, but that is just me.

SINK SWIM

I’ve been talking with Finny for ages now and I finally got it together to post his knuckles. Here they are along with the stories behind them:

swim_sink
What would Finny do? SINK SWIM is his yin and yang. Has a devil side and and an angel side, and tattoos themed to match. Thus his swim is on his "good" side, comedy, his mom. SINK on his left for the bad, tragedy, father.
swim_sink_full
Fruits and veggies - his mom said he needed somethign to remind him to eat his fruits and veggies every day. He is going down the path of organic farming.
lobster
The Crawfish/Lobster. The only piece of Sailor Jerry flash on his body. Sailor Don, busted out actual Sailor Jerry Red and mixed it with everclear. Salt and pepper shakers adorn to add a little spice.

ROCK STAR

rock_star

Markus Sell sends us these knuckles all the way from Munich, German

The Story behind is that i already had the Stars on my left and right hand.

They weren`t made that good and i thought about having them made over and use the star for the A in the Word STAR, and on my other Hand ROCK to build the Word ROCKSTAR.

I was more into it when i read KAT von D`s Book cuz i liked her hands so much. Now im Happy to have it on my Knuckles.
Lets see what my Boss is thinking about it when i see him on Monday :-)

Im a Male Nurse here in Munich, Germany and in charge of the Ward. :-)

RIFF RAFF

riff_raff

From Costa Mesa, CA:

My exciting story is that I wanted an AC/DC tattoo because they rule, but didn’t want their logo, so I picked one of their best songs…RIFF RAFF.  That’s it.
