Personally, I'm extremely pro-tattoo. I have a partial sleeve on my left arm, and go in for the outline of the complete sleeve on the right pretty quick here. I'll soon have my chest and upper back done after that, and then both calves. I've currently got some script work on my right inner forearm, as well. I also worked as a professional piercer in europe for a while, as well as a few local shops here. There is nothing wrong with body art, so long as it is just that, art. If there isn't a story behind why you did what you did, you'll grow to hate it. I.E. the Manson-esque 666 angst tattoo. That shit will get played out, even for Legion. I mean, tattooing has been used for centuries, dating back to early northern Chinese usage as a relief for ailments such as arthritis, or the more commonly known Maori tattooing-as-ritual-manhood practice. They exist for a million different reasons to a million different people. Is there currently a move away from the tribal revivialist movement that started all this? Yes. Is it mostly about appearance to a lot of stupid people? Yes. But not to all of them. Some people make educated, long thought out choices about what to put on their bodies. Though I think some of the people in this thread were a half step away from pointing at flash on the wall and saying "I want this somewhere hawt", it shouldn't take away from how truly spiritual a tattoo can be. I'm currently in my fifth year of study on tattooing in the modern society, and some of the stories I've heard are truly powerful. Of course, some of them are about getting the triple six tattooed on you to prove how truly anti-god you are, but there are some people out there getting it right. There's nowhere I can't reach. John Mayer just asked me, personally, through an assistant, to sing backup on his new CD.

How ya doing, buddy? I didn't say I wouldn't go fishin' with the man.
All I'm sayin' is, if he comes near me, I'll put him in the wall. |
If you can't spell it, you probably can't fucking do it properly. Also:

Oh my god, that's the most dull foreplay I have ever heard of. Are you trying to bore your girlfriend's legs apart?
I don't think that's the right definition of bore, Mr. Guest I was speaking idiomatically. |
Well hey, if she passes out then he'll have a MUCH easier time of it, won't he?
What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
FELIPE NO |
I don't have any, and I'm not opposed to them, so long as it's not something offensive (like a swastika) or so large that the tattoo draws more attention than the person themselves.
Personally, I don't want any though, cause I can't imagine the tattoos would look good on you when you're old and wrinkly, and I don't want to pay to have them removed later either. What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
Jam it back in, in the dark. |
Man... If I had the body for it I would TOTALLY get a tattoo. I don't know what I'd get though. If anything I've always wanted an eagle perched on a cactus killing a snake. For those who that sounds familiar to, that's actually the symbol of the birth of the country of Mexico and is what the Aztecs saw as what their prophecy foretold as being the place where they would root themselves. They saw this when they stumbled on the lake of Teotihuacan and it's now in the center of the flag.
Although, I have taken a lot of hints from one of my friends who's a tattoo artist here in Visalia. He lays down a ton of in every week and he's always telling me about the strangest shit that people get on themselves. He also told me the golden rule of getting a tattoo is to really LOVE what you're getting inked on you. He tells me, "Draw or print what you want put on your body and put it somewhere where you will see it everyday for a year. If you get tired of it after a year, it's not for you." I guess I'll have to think about it. I've seen some really good scripture work done around here. In fact, of all the tattoos that people on GFF have my favorite one is the one that Deni has that says "He Lies With The Truth". Fucking ace~ There's nowhere I can't reach. |
I was a fucking idiot and got the Japanese symbols with a friend of mine.
Then, I figure out that the Japanese is wrong. Nothing funny, but just wrong, so it's just ridiculous looking. I'm twenty and I already regret mine. Most amazing jew boots |

Deni, I like the Earthbound underneath your arm in that picture.
Back on topic, I personally would like a tattoo. I wouldnt want mine to be too big and definitely in a place that cannot easily be seen by others. I dont care so much if other people have them although I think people should put a lot of thought into it. Oh yeah, I think Chinese and Japanese characters look really dumb, especially becuase you see them on everyone. I was speaking idiomatically. |

Thats a deadly tat Deni.
I'm getting one just as soon as my funds allow considering i've been planning to for like, 10 years, but I don't think i'll get it somewhere in plain view just in case it could be a problem for me for jobs or whatnot FELIPE NO |
I say to each his own. If you wanna turn your whole body into a tatto mural then go for it. Me, i plan on getting a nice tribal one down my right arm and maybe a puerto rican one on my other shoulder and thats about it.
What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
Tattoos and body markings have been a cultural tradition since the begining of mankind. Tattoos are no different, and if they truly mean something to someone, then by all means go ahead and get one.
What I dislike are people who go out and get "skulls and dragons" with no meaning other than wanting something cool drawn on them. Words of wisdom would best fit on me, or a single symbol, very small that defined me in a very clever way. Awhile back I watched a friend of mine (female) get a tattoo of a NES controller on her lower back. Now *that's* retro, and I know she absolutely loves the old school stuff. How ya doing, buddy? |
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. There's nowhere I can't reach. |
I like tattoos as long as they aren't horribly mismatched. A good (bad) example of this is a guy I saw that had Hitler's portrait tattooed on one arm, and Minnie Mouse on the other, along with dozens of other random things.
I think for a woman, getting F-holes (like on a violin/viola/cello) on the back is absolutely wonderful: My favorite tattoo scheme would be a guy that used to work at our Borders. He had this Aztec theme going, with a patter going evenly around his neck and Quetzalcoatl earrings. Or my old art teacher (you would remember, Ence), who had something like Indian pottery designs all over his body. Things that make your body a unified work of art are awesome. One tattoo of something you love, or for a good reason is cool. Lots of random crap is just ugly. That said, I'm getting a tattoo with one of my friends sometime this semester. Nothing big, just an alto clef; we're both violists, so we're getting the same thing: He's planning on expanding his tattoos, but this is the only one I'm getting. I won't get tired of it, but I'm having trouble deciding where to put it. I need it in a place that can be both easily concealed and revealed. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Nah, I know a ton of cats who have their shoulder blades/between tatted up. Some really nice work, too. My personal favourite was a jewish guy I know who had Santa being crucified on the cross. Fantastic. Also, try to keep me from posting new ink when I get it. Most amazing jew boots John Mayer just asked me, personally, through an assistant, to sing backup on his new CD. |
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? |

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. Jam it back in, in the dark. |
Here we go... I knew I'd find a picture of what I've been wanting to get.
I mean, it would need a lot more detail than that, of course; but that's pretty much it. There's nowhere I can't reach. |
