My first immediate thought when I saw this tattoo? Well, I obviously have to post it on a Sunday.

Sorry Mom, I know you’re not angry… just disappointed.

I just want to see one good (bad?) action flick where they bring a snake to a knife fight. They already put them on planes… it’s not like Hollywood can stoop much lower, guys.

I don’t have any love for the Steelers, but plenty of people do. With six Super Bowl wins, who can argue with them?

For the record, I planned to post this tattoo last Monday because I really thought Pittsburgh was going to win…

Are skulls supposed to be able to induce hunger? I could really go for a ‘nana with some Cheerios right about now.

There’s a lot of articles out there speculating about why print media is (allegedly) dead. I’m not so quick to agree, though surely all aspects of media have seen a decline in income in recent years. Could the peoples’ friend and tyrant’s foe really be so easily replaced?

I’ve always been a fan of the old poison bottle piece, and I’m especially found of the slant Jason Lambert took. I especially like the details of the liquid shifting to the corner, and the contrast between the colors.

What do you think? Do you prefer the traditional bottle tattoo, or do you like the variation?

I don’t know too much about the geisha aside from the limited research I’ve done online & what movies have show me… but I’ve got to say that if this happened in real life, it’d be pretty bad for business.

Let’s be honest. Updating Twitter all of the time can be a pain in the ass. Especially if you have multiple pages, such as a personal account and an account for your business or website. There have been plenty of times that I didn’t even feel like looking at a computer, let alone trying to write something witty for the Tattoo Snob account.

With that being said, when a tattoo shop creates a Twitter account and actually keeps it updated – I’m impressed. Without further ado:

Black 13 Tattoo – The powerhouse tattoo shop of Nashville featuring Steve Martin, Josh Woods, Ian White, and Marty McEwen.

Union Electric Tattoo – Big 5 and Jim Sylvia are always posting pictures of fresh work and various antics throughout the shop.

Off the Map Tattoo – One of the most unique shops in the world, Off the Map has three top notch artists in house, and a revolving door of international tattoo artists doing guest spots throughout the year.

570 Tattooing Company – Although their tweets have slowed down over the past month, Ron Russo and the crew deliver quality work just outside of Pittsburgh, PA.

Obviously there are more shops on Twitter that we follow, but we’re going to save them until the next round.

As always, we created a list specifically for Tattoo Shops. The beauty of the list is that you can follow one list instead of all the individual accounts.
