Tattoos. Where do you stand on them?

Ive always ran the thought of getting one back and forth in my head, but I can never settle on a single thing thats meaningful enough to me to warrant a tattoo.

I will proably get one someday, but if that one thing doesnt hit me, then im not gonna just do it to do it.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

In defense of the original poster, they did have an ok reasoning for it, but I think they could of been more creative with it.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Is a tattoo on the upper part of your back a chick thing? Around the area between the shoulder blades? I know girls tend to get theyre lower back tattooed and that is definately a place you wouldnt see a guy get one. So im just wondering if its the same on the upper back?

Deni, you gotta post pics of the sleeves when you get them all finished.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Also, try to keep me from posting new ink when I get it.

Im glad, because thats the place I planned on getting a tattoo when I get mine done.

I dont think I would be able to have only one arm done, or one shoulder blade, etc. I need symmetry, and I really only plan on getting one. I heard there addictive though.

Im looking forward to the new ink.

How ya doing, buddy?

Ive really been thinking about one lately. Im no longer just muling over the idea, but giving it real consideration.

I just started working out again after a long hiatus. Im toning my body back up, and I really feel like a tattoo would solidify my determination.

Im still looking for that one thing to just pop into my head.

I was speaking idiomatically.

I mean, it would need a lot more detail than that, of course; but that's pretty much it.

Nice. Wasnt too sure about it when you first mentioned it, but I could definately see that in a tattoo.

How ya doing, buddy?

If your new to tattoos please read this. She seems to know her stuff, and it helped get rid of alot of questions I had about tattoos and the process involved. The site is http://tattoo.about.com/od/tattoo101/a/tatbegguide.htm

Im sure someone who has gotten a tattoo could verify the information on the site.

FELIPE NO

People wear clothing with logos on them. Thats being branded.

The argument that they are expensive seems kinda thin. I understand it can seem like alot of money, but its a permanent piece of art work inked into your body. I think the price is justified for good work.

I would like to see your tattoo Vivi.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

You gotta be a hardcore Xenogears fan, or must of gotten something very significant out of it.

Im glad you like it .

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I love the expression on the girls face.

Your mom sounds like she has a wild side.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I can only image how crazy that must be.

Im glad your mom is full of spirit, but is still responsible.
