inked - reactions so far

"whoa! did it hurt?"
"wow, cool! did it hurt?"
"is that real? did it hurt?"
"thats awesome! did it hurt?"
"badass! did it hurt?"

of course it hurt! anyone who tells you otherwise is either lying, or has something wrong with their nervous system. i basically got stabbed in the arm about a million times. granted the stabbing was only like 1/16 of an inch into my skin, but still, i basically have an open wound. now, when i say hurt, i mean the nerve endings on my arm was telling my brain that shit was going down that may or may not be cool as far as my arm could tell. did i want to stop? no. did i want to cry? no. (i may be a pussy, but im not that much of a pussy) some parts did in fact make me be like 'goddamn!' but for the most part it was like 'hm... this kind of hurts...'

before you ask:
no, i dont regret it.
yes, i love it.
and yes, im already planning on getting more - my left arm is getting jealous
