"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

the symbol from Gary Numan's "Exile" album cover

Awesome!

Very nice!

I was all set to get an analemma tattoo until a friend asked "Anal Emma?"

Electromagnetic candy! - Stark

Awesome!

...well, mostly...until I realized that Gary took the symbol from someone else's tattoo. So I've (inadvertently, of course) committed almost the worst faux pas of tattooing - I've copied someone else's tattoo. Bah.

I still love it. And the album it came from.

Now: more BSG! *claps hands extremely imperiously, then awaits the bitchslap of patience*

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Just in case I wasn't the only one confused: GM pointed out that "Declare Emergency" only works on skill checks, not die rolls.

Yeah, we had that discussion too. In my defence, I was attempting to read the card text off a low-pixel .jpg of the full set of cards on a Portuguese website.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Oh come on, SH, you know you want a Twilight tattoo: [link]
um. ah. They do know the forever-ness of tattoos? Right? Oh god. And this is why teenagers should NOT be allowed to get tattoos.

:: awaiting GM to awake, and let us know how we rolled to jump the hell out of there. Which probably involves an e-mail to me, which I haven't gotten ::

That's just what I was thinking. I'm so glad my "I am such a hardcore punk I cut myself" scars from the 80s are barely noticeable.

Plus, some of those looked pretty expensive. And while I actually do like the book covers, I think about, oh, getting a tattoo of a Piers Anthony cover or whatever I was reading at that age and shudder.

(OK, it would've been art from the red or blue D&D)

(but that just makes my point)
