Okay, for the record, what did Bryan do? The answer is, He's getting a tattoo for his birthday. I don't think I have to tell you that it's driving my mother batty. She's only got one pristine, unmarred child left and in two weeks, that'll be a thing of the past. Hee. :)

In any event, I'm trying to convince her that as long as it's not something tacky and it's someplace he can cover with a dress shirt, she shouldn't worry. I think I'm wearing her down, but then, I'm stupid enough to think she likes my tattoos.

So anyway, he's getting a Chinese dragon in black ink high up on the right side of his back by his shoulder. Also, he's highly amused everybody thinks he either broke his finger playing video games or got wasted and threw up in the gazebo.

Then I brought up the last poll, which I think was the one where everybody thought he knocked up his girlfriend, and he said, "I mean, since I've been growing out my hair, I've been making out, but I'm not, like ... a manwhore." Hee. My brother, the manwhore. :)

Hee! It's an icon dance-off! *flails*

Actually I think you wrote about him getting a tattoo for his birthday before, it did ring a bell. But maybe that's just me hallucinating.

Anyway *joins the I-got-it-right dance*

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

Yup, I tried to get him to last year, but he changed his mind. Not this year, though. *cackles maniacally*

[the-swordman.livejournal.com]

you're obviously enjoying corrupting this fine and proper young man tsk tsk.
You're very much reminding me of my own sister... which is something you should be worried about :)

just to add to the icon dance-off....

I rather like the idea of someone getting drunk and throwing up in a gazebo. It just needs to happen!

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

It's kind of a bastardization of something my mother once did. She and my dad went downtown to the yearly festival, they walked back home drunk, and when they got to our back yard, my mother grabbed onto the pole for the clothes line and threw up all over the place.

[midnightbex.livejournal.com]

There's something about throwing up in backyard stories that always makes them funny.

Aw, I got it wrong! But, any gamer would be proud to break their thumb in the line of duty. Plus, that'd be an interesting conversation:

"How'd you break your finger?"

"You know how you can trap humans in Katamari Damacy? I was aiming for twins, and zigged where I should have zagged."

I've got nothing to say but I feel the need to join the animated icon party! :)

*stares at your icon*

Wow, Spike. Guh.

*runs to take a cold shower*

Your poor mom. heh heh heh

I was 42 when I got my first tat. My mother almost had a stroke.

[ishtar79.livejournal.com]

Heh. Mothers don't like tattoos, do they?

What kind of tattoos do you have? *curious*

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

I have a pentagram on my shoulder, a curly symbol that looks like a 4 on the back of my neck, Edgar Allan Poe's signature on my lower back, and the inscription from the One Ring in a band around my left upper arm. I so need to get another one. :)

[ishtar79.livejournal.com]

They sound cool. :)

I only have a dragon on my belly, and I've been trying to figure out what to have done for my next one.

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

My belly is the only place I won't get a tattoo, just because one of these days I hope to have a baby and if I get lucky like that, I don't want to ruin my tattoo. :)

[wtfbrain.livejournal.com]

Mothers and tattoos don't mix. When I got mine, I didn't tell my mom, and then when she saw it (by accident), she freaked out and told me that OMG I RUINED MY LIFE because good, decent, "normal" people don't get tattoos. I forced myself not to point out that I hadn't ever fit the "normal" definition as she saw it. Didn't think that would go over well.

When my dad saw it, he raised an eyebrow and asked, "couldn't you have gotten something more girly? Like a flower or a dolphin?" *facepalm*

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

See, my mother isn't flipping out too badly, but she isn't happy. When I got my first tattoo, it was on the back of my neck and my hair covered it up, so she didn't see it. Then I went to a tattoo party and got two tattoos, and when I was telling her what the party was like, she said, "So, did you get any tattoos?" I figured what the hell, and showed her all three.

Her first response was, "You know, I always thought about getting a tattoo." That's half the reason my next tattoo is going to be a Siamese cat -- because that's what she wanted, and if I get a cute enough one, I want to see what she'll say. ;)

It was better than my dad's response, though which was, "Are those permanent?" *sigh* Yes, Dad, those are permanent. Hee. :)
