Maybe we should start an "Idiot" thread.

There'd be so many posts, it would have to be a "sticky".

I local tat shop is managed by the artists wife who is knock down gorgeous.
Blond, deep blue eyes, and a figure that is 75% legs!

Until she turned her body into what I liken to a wooden desktop at grade school. Remember when you could doodle on the desk and teach couldn't tell cause it was a big collage of nonsense?

What a waste of money and a perfectly good body......

My gf has tatoos. Small ones that are only noticaable if she lets you see. I love her to death and she wants me to get atleast one. I don't think I can do it. Theres always the *possibility* of being infected even if they open the needle in front of you. They are permanent and with age, they do turn grayish green, and it's just a fad and cost to much money. I have no desire to get a tatoo now or most likely ever. Im not worried about the pain but I care about my body and I only have one so why cover it in ink? Some people look great with tatoos and hey, I support their choice in decorating their bodies but it's just not for me....Plus, I work hard for my money and I put it on stuff that will make life easier for me. Not cause me temporary pain and make some artist rich....

Is that Bob Marley? Looks like Jimi Hendrix......

My oldest and youngest daughters both have small tatoos. I don't know, sometimes I think that a small tatoo would be cool, then other times I think like NC Kid.

I'm with NC Kid. Never liked tats, never wanted one. I especially don't like them on gals. There is nothing sexy or attractive about them. Gals like Kat von D and Daneille (from American Pickers) would be so much more attractive without all the ink. My daughter has several and I dislike every one of them.

In general, I agree. But there are some tats that are done well - bastet has one on her shoulder; it is her name in Chinese and was done nicely and isn't in plane view.

I find the rose on the ankle tat to be the trashiest thing... how hill-billy can you get? I guess her "man" has a mullet.

However, 90% of all tats are stupid... As Jimmy Buffett puts it, "a permanent reminder of a temporary feeling".

Some are junk... some are very well done and have a lot of meaning to the owner. My nephew has his late dad's initials (my brother) on his back.

And some are the result of history ruining lives. I am thinking of the numbers tatoo'd on the arms of Holocaust survivors.

But for the rest of it... not for me... but I refuse to outlaw it.

NCKid - if you go to a good shop, with a new needle, with a good health rating, and tend to the tat afterwords as instructed, you have nothing to fear. If infection was THAT huge a problem, there would be a lot of sick people out there.

I have two and plan 2 more if I ever get around to saving the money and stop spending it on the two projects.

I like needles and the artwork. NONE of mine can be seen with my scrubs on or a cutoff shirt for that matter. I find visible tats in public (save military) a problem but have no issue with some artwork.

Always go to a reputable shop. Needles and equipment should be sealed/sterilized and the artist should be wearing gloves.
I guess I'm one of those 'trashy ones with the tattoo on her ankle'... I have a palm sized tattoo of a dragon on my ankle, had it for nearly 20 years. And yes, it meant something to me when I got it and it still does. I even had it 'touched up' about a year ago. Not sure where the 'grey' fading color comes from that NC Kid refers to but mine never has, always remained colorful except where I had white in there, that faded - but then again you aren't supposed to be in the sunbed without putting suncreen on it to protect color, either but ... I'm in the sunbed daily or outside during warmer seasons - another 'vice' I suppose....

Send me a picture of it, I'll check with the locals over here and see if the artist spelled it correctly

Pinying or traditional chinese?
