My last post about the PooxPosm knuckle tattoo my witch/tattoo artist/friend posted on her Facebook page got me thinking about knuckle tattoos because, I suppose, if you're gonna think about something when you see a picture of a knuckle tattoo it's probably going to end up being about knuckle tattoos.
Someday, the above will be a famous quote in a book about me but probably not.
Mainly, two questions popped into my head about knuckle tattoos:
1) Why?
2) No, seriously. Why?
Honestly, my first and only tattoo adventure was so hideous that I couldn't imagine getting another tattoo.. let alone get needles jabbed in an area where it's hard and bony and I've already had a vasectomy so, you know, been there done that thankyouverymuch.
But if I DID get a knuckle tattoo...what would I get?
So I came up with some options.
**************
These just seemed self-explanatory.
*****************
This works on several levels because when you're showing off your knuckle tattoo you never ever put your thumb into the display OR if you actually DON'T have thumbs this is the perfect way to tell someone, "Hey..I'd like to pick up that glass of water for you but, you know.." ** flash tattoo **
Although now that I'm looking at it you could read it as "Not Humbs" which also makes sense unless you are actually named Humbs...but then why get this tattoo? Are you in the witness protection program, Humbs? Because if you're trying to throw people off your trail this is probably the opposite way to do it because now we want to know who you actually are, WHY you're not Humbs, and - more importantly - where IS the guy?
See? People will want to know this shit.
Think, Humbs. Think.
*****************
I like this one because it says you're a do-it-yourself type of person but sometimes you really don't think shit through - like tattooing your own knuckles for instance - before you do it.
*****************
I can't think of any better way to say "GET OUT OF MY WAY" than this catchy knuckle number.
Except, you know, saying 'get out of my way.'
****************
My personal favorite and do you think that the water Wonder Twin ever just wanted to kill his sister while she slept? Because I'd be, like, wicked bitter about only being able to change into ice cubes and shit and probably change myself into an icicle and just get all stabby with rage one night.
Although I wouldn't be able to actually MOVE because I was just a stupid icepick.
I've obviously thought about this too much. Unlike the guy who did his own knuckle tattoo up there.
Moog out.
**********************
People with design degrees
would probably have even more ideas for tattoos.
BUT:
If you want a tattoo done by some wicked talented people and you're in the Massachusetts area, make sure you check out Good Mojo Tattoos and tell them the Midget Man sent ya:

This was very clever and funny! It reminds me that you do have a very creative mind, even if it is slightly pervy most of the time.

How is it possible that you had a vasectomy, bicep surgery and a tattoo done and you still dread another tat experience? Shouldn't you be kicking pain's ass by now?
*I thought of suggesting "mental poo" for a knuckle tattoo, but it has nine letters. Dangit.
I need the wonder twins tatoo. For real. Did you ever see this awesome wonder twins video?

Knuckle tattoos are hardcore: too many nerve endings, not enough fat. That and the top of the foot--ouch ouch indeed. But the Wonder Twins one is really cool....
Classic.
Genius!!!! Very funny. Ah the wonder twins! Thats my favorite!
What could be sillier than a knuckle tattoo?
Oh, I guess just about any other sort of tattoo.
