There are hundreds of thousands of tattoo pictures online. Maybe millions. But with this rise in popularity, it's getting even harder than ever to tell the difference between a quality piece of art and a piece that will fade into a black smudge. Learn to tell the difference now so you don't have to learn the lesson the hard way.

Have you guys checked out my other blog yet?
I don’t update it enough because it’s hard finding content for it, but it’s damn good.
I promise.
It seems like everyone’s getting tattoos these days…

Uhm, I really hate to be annoying, but, uhm, we're less than a week from two months since the last critique. Any idea when a new one will be coming? I hope all is well with you and that you have a nice day. :)
Yeah, I know, I know… they just take up so much of my time (seriously, like 5+hrs a week) that it’s been hard to justify getting on Tumblr and doing them all when I have clients that are waiting on work, a dog demanding to be walked, groceries to buy, dishes to clean…
Being an adult blows.
But ya’ll should keep bugging me.
Soon I swear.

Are you a runner in the Connecticut area?
Hit me up! I’m looking for new friends to do a ton of races with this year in the New York / New England area and would loooove to be your friend!

I just want you guys to know that this guy is alive somewhere living his life with a giant American flag face tattoo.
And there was an artist that thought this was a good idea.

Nostril piercings helping him to breathe after 15 years of not breathing properly through his nose
At 60 years of age, this professional sculptor and artisan has already lived a colourful life. After a severe motorcycle accident, he required reconstructive surgery to his face; the following years of failed nasal repair surgeries and a broken nose from his rowdy political activism left this man with a large amount of scar tissue within his nose - his septum had all but ‘collapsed’. This prominent scar tissue blocked a significant amount of his lower nasal passage and left him unable to breathe through his nose. He has spent the past 15 years struggling with breathing, sleep apnea, heavy exercise or strenuous activities, and even eating.After consulting many doctors and being told that there was simply “nothing [they] could do”, he came to us with the idea of bypassing the collapsed passage by creating a hole either side of his nose which would be large enough for him to breathe through. While large-gauge nostril piercings are nothing new to body modification enthusiasts, the idea that this piercing could be functional and so practical in this particular case was a very interesting prospect.
Yet again, body mod as a form of healing.
Check it out: [breast cancer], [hearing impairment], and [arthritis] can all be fought with body modification, whether it’s ancient medicine or modern science calling the shots!
Can you believe people still think this is self mutilation?](http://24.media.tumblr.com/86591a1e74a4a160570bdb2a122e1d44/tumblr_mhi1v3Vz3W1qfxw86o1_500.jpg)

Hey remember that one time Pam was kidnapped and beat the shit out of everyone because she paid for college as a pro MMA fighter?
Good times…
