tattooed on me.

"a crescent moon, and two stars"

1.) I am not defacing the flag. I was not aware it even looked like the Pakistan flag. The first time I saw it, was when a temporary tattoo artist came to my school. The Pakistan Flag symbol (but with an extra star) was an option. I liked it.

2.) Let me stress again how I am not getting the ACTUAL FLAG on my arm. I'm getting a crescent moon, with two stars [all black].

Whatever. I can whatever the hell I want tattooed on my body.

I like how it looks, and I'm a pretty spiritual person, though I don't subscribe to one religion neccessarily.

If is not a Pakistan flag then stop calling it a Pakistan flag.

Its just a moon and a couple stars sheesh ._.

Haha, PM?

You didn't stress anything about not getting the actually flag.
Before you get anything like that you should understand where the symbol comes from and what it means, why it is on their flag.
Also, to get it on your wrist is just flat out fucking stupid and something you will regret at some point in your life.

That sounds stupid and tacky looking anyway.

Perhaps you shouldn't refer to it as the Pakistani flag with an extra star, then. Just say it's a crescent moon with two stars, since that's what it is. Most people will be able to picture that quicker than the flag anyway.

I edited my post.

I referred to it as such, because all my friends, after they saw the temporary tattoo, they were like "You got the Pakistan flag?"

No, it represents a corruption of the Pakistani flag, which represents Pakistan, not Islam!

^ No, a moon with a star inside the crescent part symbolizes Islam. The symbol is also on Turkey's flag.
