“Former tattoo artist here, and it has to be infinity symbols. ESPECIALLY when they want them to be ‘uNiQuE’ so they have you spend three hours drawing up different ways of cramming little McKayzleigh and Brackxston’s names, birthdates, birth weights, blood types, and favorite ice cream flavors in there. Fine, I’ll find a way. I can work for my money. ‘Oh, and can it also have a thin blue line in there for my husband?’ Sure, lady. ‘And maybe some birds breaking off of it, cause my meemaw loves birds!’ Sighhhh. Yeah, okay. ‘And can you do it on the side of my finger in white ink?’ Fuck you, get out.” — rumpertumpskins
