Actually I did notice and I did chuckle because it reminded me of something that a friend of mine did many years ago.
Our boss was having a birthday (male boss and we are female) and back before we could get fired for sexual harassment and we wanted to get something "special" for his birthday.
We decided to go to the local porn store out in the boonies where people go to watch the sex videos and also purchase a wide assortment of sex toys. This was long before sex toy stuff stores were established as okay places to visit where anything from erotic sleep ware to toys could be purchased and had store fronts in nice shopping strip malls.

She was rather mortified and anxious about going to "that" sort of establishment.
"What if we see someone we know".... I just laughed and told her not to worry because if we see someone we know they won't even act like they saw us anymore than we would act like we saw them.

Way to go, Tino!!! Nope, the camera is intact and so are we! That's the mask I'd like to get with the Bella loop thingies. It looks soooo much more comfortable!! Great posting!

Pugsy, Glad to know at least one of you is awake!! We have a lot of stores here in Houston, but they don't always carry the high brand/ high quality stuff. Sounds almost like a drug score there (and no, I don't swing that way). There are lots of soccer moms that sell things and will meet you in parking lots with cameras here though. I've debated doing that myself for money until I can find steady work. Anyhoo, it just made me chuckle, but I'm an odd duck.

Well looks like I joined this thread at the most interesting time, went from Firearms to the buying of Sex Toys in Parking lots!
Not meaning to turn this into "show us your Tattoos" thread, but you asked Abby, it's my Wolf... Hey Pugsy, I thought I read a while back you got a new one?

You are getting the Swift FX today in Walmart Parking lot....does it include the Bella loops? If not and you find that you like the Swift FX and want to try the Bella Loops and don't want to spend $25 on Ebay for them I think I have an extra set. They would be used and the pink part not so pretty (no matter how much they are washed the skin oils do darken the pink) but still serviceable. I would be happy to send them to you as a gift if you wanted to try the Bella Loops and you don't get any with your purchase today. Just let me know if you need them or want to try them.

The Swift FX nasal pillow mask is my main mask. I sort of alternate between the traditional headgear and the Bella Loops. Depends on my mood. Right now I am trying the new Pilairo. I am thinking that you will like the Swift FX but then we all tend to do that...think that someone else will like what we like because we "know" it is a great mask. We never know till we try though.

I did. My second tattoo. I decided I wanted something I could see easily at a glance instead of having to look in the mirror.
My only image of it was 5 days in and some flaking of the skin makes it look like I have blobs of ink where it is obvious there shouldn't be and it was the only image that wasn't blurry. Hubby not so great with the digital camera.

Maybe we need another OT thread so we can show off our body art???

Kody, that's badass! Love anything with vivid colors. Here's mine, but I haven't had pictures taken of it in two years. I've had more done since this. I guess I need to get that taken care of!

and my left arm so far. The maneki neko isn't finished yet...

Pugsy, may I see your ink?? Pretty please with sugar on top?? To the rest of you, sorry this is off topic of masks... Carry on posting those killer photos in your hosehead gear! YAY!!!!

Your artwork is beautiful.
Here you go. Ignore the obvious purple where there shouldn't be purple. And the shoulder spider tattoo below the butterfly.

Thank you, Pugsy and Kody! Love your work, awesome! Mine are all for someone. Each butterfly for someone, every color, etc all means something to me. Everything is symbolic, but it's a long story. If I didn't draw it, my tattoo artist did. He'd draw it on my back in marker and then just ink it in all in one sitting. That's how much I trust him. My longest tattoo session still holds the shop record last time I checked. 10.5 hours straight. I had ink poisoning and puked for 3 days though. Not recommended. LOL

Okay, we need another mask picture up in this joint. Who's going next??? Step on up, don't be shy!!

Geeze... Pugsy - until I actually read your post, I thought you were showing us a spider that was crawling around your house!

Now for the big question... why a spider?
If only the folks with sawdust for brains were as sweet and obliging and innocent as The Scarecrow! ~a friend~

Odd choice I know. I knew someone would ask about "why" so I have been trying to come up with explanation.
Mainly because I saw it on a website on someone and not just a drawing. I appreciated the artistic components of it. The fact that it looked 3 D and real. It "spoke" to me. Those that have tattoos will know what I mean. I looked for 2 years to find one that "spoke" to me. I have done oil paintings in the past (Don't do it now ..long story and no need to go into it) so I could appreciate the artistic qualities of it.

So it had nothing to do with black widows or dislike for previous husband or anything like that. No special meaning other than I liked it for what it was. A work of art. Totally freaked out my grandson first time he saw it. Creeps some people out.

Besides those of you that know me a little better know that I am sort of a black sheep in the family type of person. The odd guy out, the maverick who likes to take risks and experiment. What better thing for a little old granny to get than something that not many women would want and is rather unique.

Pugsy is the black spider of the family. But she's still a butterfly.
