One of my coworkers has a tattoo of a rune that he says means "fidelity" on his ring finger, in place of a wedding ring. But then, I work at a lefty liberal NGO. One of the VPs suggested producing a "Tattos of [Workplace]" calendar as a fundraiser and, while he was kidding, it would be totally doable.
Wesley: I stabbed you. I should apologize for that. But I'm honestly not sure how. I think it'll just be awkward. Gunn: Good call. Wesley: Okay.

Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

My current workplace could care less...and I'm not really counting on THOSE OTHER PLACES finding me work (since they haven't talked to me in over 6 months anyway).
I'm just sayin' - it's more conservative in Seattle than it used to be. The general consensus amongst my peers is - visible tattoos? Better work in a tattoo parlor.

I like looking on tattos, but they're all too "ouch!" and "forever!" for me.
However, if I would ever have one, right now the Women in Black symbol is the only thing that I feel committed enough to ink on my body.

Huh. Well that's annoying. I mean, my tattoos barely show, but it's not like I look exactly *normal*, nor will I ever, really.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
There was a gorgeous tattoo on the girl in front of me at the show last night. She designed it herself, a pastel dragon about to take flight on her left shoulder blade. It was more entertaining than the opening band.

And, once again, I have nothing to say except for what I said yesterday: Shir "Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed." Aug 25, 2009 12:39:04 pm PDT

I must be one of the very few people of my generation (Gen X) who does not have any tattoos. DW doesn't have any either.

My tats aren't in highly visible places, but I don't deliberately cover them up at work (beyond, you know, wearing pants).
