LOLOLOL!! Man, Mike, you crack me up even when I'm pretty sure you're being totally straight-forward. Thanks, buddy! But, um, just one thing -- aren't most painkillers also blood-thinners? I'm not sure. But if they are, then you realllly don't want to take anything before getting tattooed, and if the artist knows you did, they probably wouldn't tattoo you. I imagine it would get messy and might even mess things up. The secret is picking the location. Certain places naturally hurt more than others. My most painful one was the inside of my ankle

Very painful! I was shaking the entire time, AND I had to have it done twice since the first artist wasn't very good.
