Aren't there three tt's in tattoo?

jokingly says...

Wait....3 tt's? No, there's only one tt, and one other t. ;-)
I didn't even notice that one. Got it right in the description, but 50% is still an F, huh?
Thanks-fixed

so someone school me.

Those needles don't look like they're penetrating much at all. how come all that ink doesn't wear away when we inevitably shed skin cells either through sunburns or just the passage of time?

From the little I know, the intent is to penetrate to about the middle of the outer skin layer, below the layers that shed but not so deep you can't see the ink anymore. It's a fine line.
There is degradation of the image from skin shedding, worse from sunburns, but for normal people it's not so bad that the image erases, only lightens and 'spreads' so it's not as crisp. At least that's what I've heard and seen from friends I know with many tattoos and from watching TV shows and reading books about it, I have none myself.
