Ran across a tattoo project for anyone interested in more ink.

interesting concept; but, no. Not just no but hellz no.

While the idea of being part of something like that would be very cool, my ink is a matter of intense pride and creativity (well except the tribal band from when I was 20, but it still effing rocks!) and the entire idea of being able to have that creativity stifled and told what word I can get, the color it needs to be and what font it is in.... not so much. Especially if I am being expected to fork over the cash to get myself inked.

The first thing I though was that this would make all these people susceptible to massive magic ritual.

I need to put the Dresden Files down for a bit..

Ha, I thought that too. I just finished the first book and I'm looking forward to getting the second one.

Heh, my wife's comment was, "knowing my luck I'd get 'the' for my word".

I don't see how the second sentence follows from the first... :psyduck: :psyduck:
