I heard my sister-in-law today telling someone that her ex-boyfriend got a flaming 8-ball on his forearm and that it's a symbol for cocaine. It is not necessarily a symbol for cocaine but since her ex was a coke user it was a symbol of coke for himself, hence the 8-ball(the pool ball and an 8ball of coke). Virtually no one else would look at this tattoo and assume that he is a coke user; they may think he likes to play pool.

It could symbolize that that person likes to play pool. However, it may also indicate that that person likes cocaine, because one-eighth of an ounce of the drug is commonly called an eight ball on the street.
it's a drug reference. specifically, 1/8th of an ounce , usually used in regards to cocaine.
It depends on the type of person but gangs have it or people in jail get to as a jail tattoo it is a sign of a drugo or a person like that
It is common, especially in the American Traditional style of tattooing, to tattoo beautiful Gypsy faces. The symbolism behind these tattoos is that the Gypsy's face or their crystal ball are representative of looking toward the future, and not living in the past.
maybe u could have a sun, which is half covered by a ball of darkness
Spherical is the adjective meaning ball-shaped. Globular is another possible adjective with a similar meaning.
First off I would not recommend using any topical deadening agents...Most of them you need to know a complete heart history of the client...Also will they inhibit the ink from taking....I can tell you from personal use that 10 % lidocaine creme worked great, for 15 minutes...But as the stuff wore off the pain was 3x as bad....Not worth it.... The inside of the arm hurts worse that the outside...Wherever the sun and wind hits you the most will hurt the least, as the skin will be tougher there. Now wherever one portion of your body joins up with another, these areas will hurt worse...Your skin is thinner and nerve endings probably closer to the surface....For the longest time I thot that the area immediately behind the hand where the wrist meets it was one of the most painful spots on my body..And if I were you I would move the tattoo at least one inch back from the hand....Inch and a half would be best.....Hope this helps....TatuBaron P.S. Dont worry you can handle it, life is pain, a tattoo is simply a tattoo. TB --I am a female and I have a tattoo on my wrist just 1/4 inch from the bend and a tattoo on the inside of my left arm, just under the elbow. [also a back tattoo and calve tattoo] I am not tough. I am extremely sensitive to pain. However, The two arm tattoos were not as bad as you would think. When getting either, I think it helps that you are able to exert some of the pain by balling your hand into a fist. It is going to hurt- That is a true story. But it will not be unbearable. My wrist was the least painful out of all four tattoos. Then my inner forearm, followed by my back. My leg hurt the most. LOL. My advice to you, eat well before hand, go in with a positive attitude, and a stress ball lol. Cheers- E
an 8 ball is an eighth of an ounce. so an 8 ball of speed is 3.5 grams
