Tattoos? Tattoos!

Love the color! My wife has a giant Sailor Moon back tat with a similar color scheme.

I grabbed that thumbnail for the thread because I thought the colors looked really nice. I couldn't find any photo credits for it, though: it was originally posted to a Reddit thread by someone looking for advice on getting a tattoo, and they didn't say where it came from or who did the work. :-/

I have an aversion to names on sports jerseys, especially now that I'm in my 40s. There's something odd about wearing a younger man's work clothing with his name on it.

I have a few sports jerseys. Numbers only, no names.

I will admit I’ve been wanting to get a football one in yellow & green- kinda like the Packers’ colors- with the number 64 on it, and “Crayola” as the name. (Because of my EXTREMELY mixed ancestry.)

I'd definitely go that way for soccer jerseys, especially given that names on the back are a relatively new development. For baseball, I'm more amenable to historical names and numbers -- a Red Sox jersey with Williams/9 or a Giants jersey with Mays/24 might be all right.

Side Note: DNR tattoos are generally not considered legally effective. If you want an enforceable DNR, you’re going to have to write it down on something other than your body.

Second Note: even fully legal DNRs sometimes get ignored.

I have an organ donor tattoo. But yeah, I also had to register as an organ donor. But please, when I’m gone, get what use you can from the carcass.

I knew a woman who, shortly after having gotten married to a guy named Gary, got a tattoo on her lower back ("tramp stamp" area) that read "Gary's Girl." I kiddingly told her that if the marriage didn't last, she was severely restricting her future dating possibilities.

They're divorced now. Whoops - I inadvertently called that one.

She can just add a D&D logo to it.

Somehow we're back to cannibals.

I guess I'm just weird!

Well, you do run an internet message board about games, so, that was kind of a given.

I'm still of the opinion that organ donation should be opt-out and not opt-in, but that's neither here nor there.

I understand the thought.
I also understand that the precedent of such would be really bad and ripe for abuse.
Since we cannot count on people being reasonable, we have to count of those that are proactive about being reasonable.

Big agree. I've been on the donor lists since I turned 18, but I really dislike the idea "presumed consent" and what that could bring.
