The story is on here somewhere and it is a true story, despite the awesomeness of it suggesting it is fabricated.

Aw ****, it just came back to me like a half brick to the skull. What name were you posting under then?

I've always been battlefields, never changed it. Didn't need to, I owned my past mistakes on here and it's made me a better poster.

For the record, recently someone made reference to my stories being awesome but implied they often weren't true. I want to set the record straight: if there is no punchline to any of my stories, then the stories are true. If there is a punchline, it is a joke. It's how I have always operated here. I live and have lived a fucking epic and outrageously outlandish existence, I don't need to embellish the truth.

That baseball bat story was the God honest truth and probably one of the hairiest situations I have been in with the police, considering the amount of drugs, weapons and blood alcohol I was sporting at the time.

I'm in, let me know when you start this. I've done a few tattoo designs for people.

After that I am going to get a tattoo commemorating my love for this website.

I feel yah! I got another tattoo this weekend. A huge Koi fish on my ribs from my hip to my niple. Hurt like a ************!! But I'm stoked about it!!

And I've thought about getting a bullshido tattoo before too, because it has changed my life in a positive way! I don't think I would be who I am today if it wasn't for this website. Sad, but true.

And hopefully I don't take a stick to the ribs tonight at stickfighting!!!

I've been toying with another idea for a tattoo, down my left shin, that says:
DOMINATE YOUR BATTLEFIELDS.
DOMINATE YOUR BATTLE, FIELDS.
DOMINATE, YOU'RE BATTLEFIELDS.

If you don't know, my last name is Fields.

That's pretty awesome

I recently got a tattoo of an octopus back-mounted a shark...

And when I see people with shark tattoos I tell them "hey I also have a tattoo where my octopus rapes your shark!"
we have fun times afterwards.

(recently as in 5-6 months ago)

If it makes you happy do it
If it helps remind you of achieving something do it

Tattoos are always personal
Don't sweat what other people think about them its your tattoo
And also its funny
