What is “Friday the 13th ink”? Someone else mentioned this and I don’t understand the symbolism.

Tattoo places usually do specials/sales for Friday the 13th.

Ah, okay. Very cool! Probably hard to get in though, right? Our tattoo places usually stay pretty booked up around here.

Yeah, depending on the shop usually people book appointments in advance or they do walk ins during a certain time. And there's a list of small tattoos to choose from so you can't just do whatever you want.

Originally started by a shop in Dallas Texas that would tattoo the number 13 on you or 13 bucks.

Famous shop. Guy who married Kat Von D.

Others may have done it before, but growing up in Texas in the nineties this was certainly a thing.

These days having a 13 tattoo could be mistaken by some people to mean that you're affiliated with MS 13 the notorious multinational gang. Could be a bad thing.
