Hi all,
I've been a member here since July, but never posted so far because I was happy just reading everyone else's posts and giggling at some of the funny threads - this forum lifts my spirits each time I stop to think just how absurd the world is without MJ and how intolerable the very idea is to me... And instead of weeping - yet again - I'll just giggle at some gif or some sick macro and find comfort in the idea that MJ isn't completely gone if his spirit is present in so many hearts out there....
And speaking of this, CarineMJJ, I love it that you rescued those kittens. I hope you find out eventually what happened to the female kitten - how unfortunate that your colleague should be so casual about that... as for "Mike", dunno, but he seems so sweet - being all cute and the farty type, lol - maybe you should keep him, even if you have 3 cats already... whatever happens, I hope he finds a home
And I really wanted to say I was in complete awe of your tat. Here's the thing: I don't understand tattoo - I don't believe in it. The concept of inking oneself for life, this idea of indelibility is beyond me. I see millions of idiots with celtic armbands and I feel sorry for them. But then your tat, no name, no silhouette, just "Never can say goodbye / 1958-Forever"... wow... found that ever so classy. This is about the coolest MJ tat I've ever seen. I've been obsessing over it all day actually, thinking of getting something similar myself.
So I wanted to ask you this: your tat is on your forearm, very visible. Since you've had it done, how have people reacted so far? I don't mean people you know, like family or colleagues or friends, but in general, with people you don't know, like when you buy something at a store or when you go to your dentist or stuff like that -- do people comment on your tat? Or do they just give it a look and look at you and say nothing? How many of those who comment ask you what your tat stands for and how many get the drift right away? Sorry for all these questions - I'm just trying to get the idea of what it means to get a tat on such a visible area...
Thanks!
PS: I can't for the life of me find how to insert emoticons. I have no emoticon bar, no smiley box, nothing.... how d'you guys do it?
