NO GOOD

NO GOOD

Wendi W. sends us these knuckles as a warning:

I’ve realized the best way to explain why I got this on my knuckles is to present a simple piece of writing by Dorothy Parker which reads:

Once, when I was young and true,
Someone left me sad-
Broke my brittle heart in two;
And that is very bad.

Love is for unlucky folk,
Love is but a curse.
Once there was a heart I broke;
And that, I think, is worse.

As much as I have loved each very much, I always “trade up”. This is what you do throughout the course of life, I just end up doing it back to back. The result being many broken hearts. As soon as I win a heart, I break it. It is a line from one of my favorite songs and I felt like it should be added to my collection of “warning” tattoos. Then, when I leave the next one, I can say, “I warned you” and maybe feel a little less guilty.

Tattooed by Doug Curtis at Diablo Rojo who also tattooed her other warnings: A giant “Poison” girl on my chest and a line down my arm:”The sweeter the apple, the blacker the core.”

PEEK A BOO

PEEK A BOO

These knuckles come all the way from Melbourne (Florida):

My name is Gavin and I work at Th-Inker Tattoo in Melbourne, Florida. Kevin comes down from Jersey a couple times a year and has marathon tattoo sessions. We decided to tattoo his knuckles on a whim last time he was here. Kevin says he frequently gets into fist fights so we thought “PEEK-A-BOO” would be funny.

MID WEST

MID WEST

Natalie S. sends these knuckles in, with this story:

Chad Koeplinger did this tattoo for me, he’s a Michigan native and totally related to my love, as an Illinois native and Chicago resident, for the mid west. My husband and I talked a lot about ideas for mid west tattoos, he ended up with a logo from his favorite skate shop in Flint, his hometown and I decided an ear of corn on my finger would be the idea tribute. I’ve been all over, and liked a lot of places on the east coast I visited, but nothing compares to being back home where every one’s fat, the politicians are all corrupt and the football’s always great.
