I've actually been present at the inking of some stupid tattoos. One of my close friends got a stegosaurus on her back, I have no clue why. The best was after a party in New York City where some girl got a Led Zeppelin 'Zoso' tattooed on her hip, and she had no clue who Zeppelin were, much less that it was a Led Zeppelin symbol.
However, with all their franchising that probably doesn't matter anymore.

Can anyone tell me the purpose of something like this?!:

I dunno, cutting the umbilical cord from your self-esteem?

Or do you mean mouth tats in general? I have eyes on the inside of my mouth (blurry photo)

But I still don't watch what I say.

These tattoos all make me more resolute to never get any tattoos. The only one I'd even consider would be the Flipper fish, and even that would almost never ever happen.

I don't have any tattoos....however, after reading this thread I think that I might just get me some ink.

My entire back is a terrible tattoo. Remember the artwork on those newer H.P. Lovecraft paperbacks? Well, when I was 19 I had a lot of that done as a back piece. Towards the end of it, this stupid metal band...Obituary...used it as their album cover. After that, everyone thought I got it for that reason. I never finished it. Fucking hell. My next tattoo will be a huge 'L' on my forehead...
