What is that word that describes how you can spell two different words in such a way that you can read one rightside up and then when you read it upside down it says another word? I want a tattoo like that! Some rapper dude has one... lol!

Those are ambigrams. After they did one on Miami Ink it seems we have gotten more requests for them.

If you can actually read them they are pretty cool but a lot of them are so abstract they just look like the latest twist to tribal.

They are called Ambigrams--good examples in Dan Brown's book Angels & Demons.

i'm assuming you're talking about the life/death tattoo. i don't think there's a word for it. a word that can be read forward and backward is called a palindrome. (i.e. racecar, hannah, so many dynamos)
