My brother and I tried to get Dad to get a different tattoo. Some suggestions were: a partially peeled banana, the word "PIMP" in gothic letters, and the kanji for "potato."
In the end, going with his initials was the smart thing to do, since we clearly don't have his best interests at heart.
The guy who did my tat had L-O-V-E and H-A-TE tattooed on his fingers. Which scared me for the first two minutes; afterward I figured it was his idea of a joke.
He also had Tony Montana in his cube. "Say hello to my little friend!"
Hec, no. I should ask her about it. She has a lot of them. This one is tiny.
Eta: I have seen lots of tears on faces and dots on hands but hers is almost a paisley shape.
I have a friend with a tiny tear drop tattooed on the inside of one of her fingers. You almost can't see it. It's an odd place, I think.
I know several people (Derby girls, Cash) with those as well as mustaches tattooed on their fingers.
I love the mustache finger tattoo.
Is she Hispanic? There's that whole tradition of Cholo tears.
I've always thought 'cholo' was a very bad word but now they're opening a restaurant out here named Cholo. I'm so confused.
I know several people (Derby girls, Cash) with those as well as mustaches tattooed on their fingers.
I have a visceral and irrational dislike of the ironic mustache in general, and this iteration in particular.
Is it normal for a dog to be at the groomer's for 4 hours?

It's a reference to Robert Mitchum's evil preacher character in
Night of the Hunter.
Be absolutely sure you know what any kanji, or other Japanese or Chinese characters, mean (and any possible other interpretations - see "ass antlers") before you have them permanently affixed to your body.
I seem to recall a story about a Firefly fan getting the Serenity kanji tat. Upon showing it off, folks pointed out it was backwards. So, make sure you know the orientation of the symbol, and if you are looking at it in a mirror, say because it's on your back or something, make sure you realize that when they show you the transfer before they start inking you.

The first one is bullshit. I fall asleep in front of the TV with the overhead light on faster than greased lighting.
Not "Cape Fear," Hec? Well, the Mitchum part was right.
