I found my perfect tattoo

[mayhap]

Bronze Age etching of a Viking ship I so want to get this tattooed on the small of my back. Never mind that I hate needles. And pain. And most tattoos.

If you don't mind explaining what it is to everyone for the rest of your life, go for it. But I guess it's like chinese characters that people who know no chinese randomly tatoo on themselves. Like the guy who had the chinese word for "woman" tatooed on himself because it looked pretty.

See, if you can't tell that that's a Viking ship--are you blind?

No it's more like "why did you get a Viking Ship tatooed on yourself?"
If people adorned themselves with ships and planes and Harleys, your artwork would be less daunting.

I figure it's some kind of cosmic compensation for my father's years in the Navy without getting any ink. More importantly, it looks really, really cool.
