FREE HUGS
This great sentiment just came in:
My name is Nikki Lynn and these were done by Mark @ Exotic Ink in Conyers, GA.
The story behind them is 2 years ago when I was at a concert at Six Flags, there was a booth selling merchandise with “free hugs” on it. I bought a hat and t-shirt from them and wore them around the concert along with a few other people. There were tons of people that kept running up to me asking for hugs and it was so exciting. I still have that hat and shirt and occasionally wear them because I love getting hugs! I figured that if someone else was having a bad day, they could always use a hug, too. So I decided to get “free hugs” tattooed on my knuckles as a kind of permanent symbol since I can’t always wear my hat or shirt. :)

TAKE THAT
Antwan says this is self explanatory.
UPDATE: Then today he sent me the explanation:
I got ‘Take That’ because people were always telling me that I couldn’t do something or I would never be able to do something. My thought was…’the hell I can’t…watch me.’ So I guess it was kind of to rub it in peoples’ faces. Plus I thought it was funny.

KINDNESS
Meredith S. has this to say about her knuckle tattoos:
Early last year, I gave away most of my shit, filled up a backpack and started footing it down the road. I was hanging out with a lot of other traveling kids, and a lot of them had knuckle tats. They said things like “wanderer” and “vagabond”; “game over” and “love / hate” like you see all the time. Some were more creative. “Wingnut” and “Lousybum” were always my favorites. So I thought to myself, if I get this done, what will I put? I wanted an eight letter word, and I narrowed it down to “kindness” or “grateful.” I would have really liked “grateful” because of my love for the Dead, but ultimately “kindness” was a really good reminder to me of what I want my hands and my actions to accomplish. These are my favorite tattoos.
