RE: I Can’t Believe Anything They Say.......
I 💩 you not, my dad has fallen asleep getting tattooed. Multiple times. That man can fall asleep anywhere. He actually has a small black dot of ink between two fingers on one hand because Big Mike got tired of having no one to talk to. That perked him back up. I think he finds the sound soothing. I definitely didn't inherit his tolerance for pain. 😜
Love the ocean theme. I can only imagine how bad that spot hurt. My ribs were pretty rough, but it still came in under three hours. My fruits and veggies owl on the side of my calf was pretty brutal between hours 3-4. My body was definitely hitting the flight response, though I've never had it quite as bad as you! Glad the Arby's girl gave you a hand.
Nice to see some great stories on this one. Great idea @foxyspirit!
I can see your dad being that way actually, a tattoo gun does have a nice hum to it lol.
I thought it was too! It also connects people in a different way too.
Good morning plantstoplanks! Your dad makes me want to vomit in my own mouth! He’s disqualified!! Ha!
the end!
👍🏿 Nah.. I’ve heard that from more than one person and I just can’t make sense of it. Not many, maybe only 4-5 people that I know actually swear by it “I fall asleep every time I’m the chair.” I’m like “well here’s a big F you that’ll fit right in your pocket! Sleep on that.” Lucky, I envy those people.
Ribs, agreed, ouch! I can’t relate with anything on the legs, I’ll take your wOrd for it. I’m just a sissy for needles I guess, a sissy for tattoo machines, whatever the case, I’ve never found one where I walked out like “man, I didn’t feel anything!” Rather, I’m in the chair sweating with clammy hands thinking “what did I just get myself into?!”
Thanks for stopping by @plantstoplanks!
Haha, yeah he's a beast. I think the sleepy times were during his back piece, which is somewhere around 30 hours worth of work all together maybe (could be more, but definitely not less)? I can't remember, I just know there were a lot of sessions on that one. He said the worst spot for him was the outside bony spot on his elbows. No snoozing there! The only other big area he has clean is his abdomen (so he can't attest to the ribs) and the upper part of his legs. I'm sure if Big Mike lived closer he might exhaust whatever flesh real estate he's got left in no time!
I would say have a good day, but you and @puravidaville are living in paradise so I think that's a foregone conclusion. 🌴😉
