Hmm.

I see snuggle.

I can read the Chinese character in that tattoo too!

I can't.
I actually can't, the meaning of the tattoo is separate from the meaning of the character.

EDIT: Oh, the fabric softener. XD

LOL I just noticed they're not in both pics.

Well that word typically means "have," is this a game? Are there any other differences I should be spotting?

Nope, just musing about possibly getting a tattoo. XD

A tattoo that essentially says "I have a tattoo". Interesting. This idea is sounding better and better.

Hahaha, if you get a tattoo that says that you'll become my new hero.

Phooey, I was hoping for a fun game during work!

Lol.

A tattoo definitely isn't a 'you' thing.

Lmao. If you really, really want it for the rest of your life, go for it I guess. XD

I always thought a tattoo should have some sort of meaning though. ;/

Kimi, I agree entirely. It's a form of artistic expression, and as such it should have some deeper meaning.

I choose this because it has meaning outside the definition of the character itself.

What does it mean anyways?

It's actually a reference to One Tree Hill
*listens to retching in the background*
*continues*
It represents, at least to me, the struggle between self and society, to fit into society while still defining oneself as an individual, and the struggle between childhood and adulthood. I think they both last for your entire life, and a lot of people give up on it (both individuality and childhood), so it's also a reminder that I'm not just what everyone wants me to be and I can always find pleasure in the simple things in life rather than being entirely devoted to a job and the pursuit of money.

And it will always be a reminder of who I used to be (who I am now), and I like that person, and I think he's a good guy, and I'd prefer not to lose him.

/shrug

Eheheh you're crazy I wouldn't get "tattoo" tattooed

I was born 2 weeks late btw ^^ Maybe that was a sign

Haha, I see. ^^

Alright, if it means so much to you, then who am I or anyone else to stop you?

Haha, thank you. ^^

I promised myself I'd let any tattoo idea sit for at least 3 months, since it's kind of permanent. You guys will know if it ever gets done though.

^^ neato. lol i used to watch that show too.

letting the idea stew to make sure its really what you want is a good idea x3

I still wouldn't have a 'asian' symbol on my body.

Welcome to you and the 29298029409229 other people that have kanji written on their body.

That's part of the significance--join the masses, but don't be one of them.

By joining the masses, you ARE becoming one of them, hence 'joining'.

If you're going to do something to permantly alter your body, you should really think of something of your own design, and nothing you see on tv or in other areas of media, but thats just my opinion.

I literally have 6 people in my lecture class alone that have some type of kanji on their body.
