Transcript

Come with me to get my neck tattoo. But I've been thinking about doing this for a very long time. And I decided to stop being a baby and finally do it. I packed me a little lunch too, so I don't go hungry. I got straight to work. He actually used another numbing cream on me, the one that I guess I should have used. I'm not one of them guys that think that you need to have pain to deserve a tattoo, because that's really stupid. And I called my mom and got all my affairs in order. This was my first time using numbing cream and I have no idea what it worked for. And can he believe that I thought this whole thing was gonna get done in one day? There's no fucking way that was happening. Safe to say the numbing cream worked because I did not feel shit. Oh my god, I'm like, shit, we finished the other side. Two hours in, I felt like I was getting attacked by wasps. I ain't gonna lie, buddy, almost caught that backhand. It took seven fucking hours to do this. It was all worth it because the shit came out fire. One more session and we're done. All the pain. Wow.
