Tattoo thread

I never even did Latin - chose German instead. However all I can remember is how to ask directions to the train station and how to order a beer :lol:
 
I did poorly at French and German, now I'm learning German because I want to, not because I have to. It's made me appreciative of both how lazy English speaking people are of other languages, and also how the Germans have this stereotype of being blunt (no progressive verbs, so "We are going" becomes "we go" etc)

I'm actually enjoying doing it, when i have the time. I have a bet with my new boss (a German) that I'll do a presentation "auf Deutsch" within a year. Hmmm

As an atheist, I quite like "salvation from the cross", it can be taken both ways... :)

Lol i believe in my family it comes from the fact some of my ancestors where bishops and such although i must say im not religious, its just a nod to my family and its history
 
I like them if they're arty. Not massively keen on tribal but I had a smaller tribal at 18 so there was only one way to go after the Fallen Angel was done

I quite like some tattoos but would never have one myself. The line between cool and embarrassing is way too thin for me to want to risk getting it wrong. Unfortunately about 90% of tattoos stray into embarrassing IMHO but each to their own. :)
