Default What's the deal with fairy tattoos?

I made it up here to Kodiak, AK and found the local tattoo shop and
found his MySpace page and saw at least three photographs of fairy
tattoos, including Tinker Bell?! Tinker Bell?! Who in the world would
get a tattoo of Tinker Bell? Talk about unoriginal. Anyways... I am
working on my first professional piece for my portfolio which has a
fairy in it, its going to be a greeting card, although it could be a
tattoo as well. I just want to know what's the big deal about fairy
tattoos? Can anyone explain it to me? I truly don't get it.

How did you travel?

I've walked, run, ridden two Hondas and two Harleys and assorted
bicycles, at least one skateboard - bright orange and plastic circa
1970something, taken a Greyhound, and assorted brands/makes/
modelswhathaveyou of cars, oh, a few military vans and trucks, too.
Hmm, almost forgot the toy tractor and at least one tricycle (missed
out on Big Wheels and Green Machines ~sigh). Flown, but that wasn't me
at the wheel. Hmm, wasn't me driving the Greyhound, actually or that
trip would've been straight through instead of stops all the time!

Cool.

Don't sell Tinker Bell short.

http://www.tinkfanatic.com/tinkerbel...os/tattoo1.htm

Several tattoo artists have approached the character from a
traditional Disney attitude while at least one has used an approach
using greater realism. The badass Tink is amusing, too. Sleeve on one
arm, drinking, smoking. The pierced wing might be a bit much.

And although not a tattoo, Tinker Bell as high art?

http://www.byronoconnor.com/news.html

Perhaps not, but Diarmuid Byron O'Connor's, "It has been as immense
privilege for me to interpret the JM Barrie characters 'Peter Pan' and
'Tinker Bell' for the Great Ormond Street Hospital," certainly seems
an original expression of something.

Such is life. Plenty of stuff I truly don't get. Take comfort in that
you're not alone.

Fairies have deep personal symbolic meaning for many people. They
encompass, truth , beauty and the yearn for the infinite. You're the
one hankering for a fairy tattoo, why do you need another's
explanation?

I truly don't get why you are still here.

Don't you have a bishop to fuck? Shouldn't you have already finished
that piece of shit artwork you've been talking about for weeks? Has
your daughter finally figured out you should have had your parental
rights terminated long, long ago and run back to her dope-smoking
father, thus giving you even more time to troll in what, 100 different
newsgroups?

Again, if you are real, you are the example of why people should be
forcibly medicated.

And if you are a troll, which I do believe more and more, you probably
should still be forcibly medicated.

Didn't work for you. Oops, that's just a rumor, of course. You know
how those things go.

This is an example of classic humor.

I do, however, protest the inexplicability of the Taz tattoo. Taz,
like Tinker Bell, is that shining example of tattoo reference with
deep personal symbolic meaning for many people. Taz encompasses,
truth, beauty and the yearning for the infinite.

Uh, or something like that.

Oh, like you being part of the scat scene?

Oh wait, that's not a rumor.

See how it works?

Come up with that all by your lonesome?

Scene, man. Duh.

Not at all? Thought so.

You haven't seen the Tinkerbell (Jessica, KP, Ariel, Belle, Snow White
and others) sketches by Zimmerman? I was working on one that straddled
my shaft (kewl idea), then I found that Gadget resembled my wife better.

I currently have a Brain Froud backpiece based on his "The Faery who was
kissed by the Pixies". I've got other ideas from Amy Brown and David
Delamare. Fairies are awesome.

Funny, you never responded about the 17 guiche ladder.

Is it a true guiche ladder (which I doubt) or does it start as a
guiche and run on the underside of your scrotum and around.

Just a question.

But it deserves an answer.

i can see how a tattoo of a fairy getting smooched by frank black could
be entertaining.

No, not funny. I blew you off because I didn't understand your question
because it was vague enough to not be able to establish a base
framework. In short, your question came across in an asinine manner.
And with you going out of your way to bring it up again, I wonder if my
first impression was the correct one?

Anyway, no it does not deserve an answer but it is a question I will try
to answer now that I understand your reference point. It started out as
a guiche and I was taking it toward an anal piercing but stopped and
went up to turn into a scrotal ladder and now it's about to become a
frenum ladder and will meet the one frenum piercing near the head.
Eventually, it will be totally filled out between my PA and a anal
piercing. But after going through this long and useless explanation, I
would think that most normal persons would understand the context and
not get caught up in semantics. So it's easier to just describe it as
my guiche ladder. Capisce?

You're too new here to make ANY assumptions on questions.

Wonder no more. It wasn't.

Calling a gorilla a squirrel doesn't make it one.

Capisce?

And by the way, good luck with the anal piercing.

I'm sure it's not your first.

Did you just make that up?

Regardless, "In short, your question came across in an asinine
manner," looks more like an observation than an assumption. ;o)
