Tattoos can be cool as long as you think carefully about what you're getting beforehand and don't go overboard with it like some idiots. I don't have any myself but I've seen some people who looked good with tattoos.

that, in most cases, is still looking for attention, when something has a meaning to you, you tend to remember it anyway.
the few people with "meaningful" tattoes were always very eager to tell everyone what they meant. If you didn't ask, they found a way to tell you anyway

>>729310684
Nah, that's just obnoxious people. Although I will admit, there's a huge overlap in obnoxious people and people with tattoos. Usually people wind up asking me about mine. Sometimes the conversation just drifts that way because of people see them. You probably just notice the more attention-seeking people more. Because they're seeking attention. And you're giving it to them. Maybe I'm just an oddball that's quiet and has tattoos.

It's not even that I hate people with tattoes, I know some very nice people with them, but when it comes to the tattoes, they almost always make a big deal out of it, which I just can't really understand, doesn't mean they're bad people or anything though.

Body modification, scarification, and tattoos date back nearly as long as homosapians have existed. Read Ötz. A mummy literally older than time as we know, with all of the things mentioned above.

The way I see it, they are stereotypes for a reason, but you should give everyone the chance to prove whether or not they fit into them.
If it's a negative one that could harm you, keep in mind and be careful, but don't expect them tobe bad people just because most of them are.
(That only goes for individuals, if you want to take in large groups of, let's say refugees, chances are high one or more of them are exactly what the stereotype says they are)

im sure its different for everyone, but personally i just find the idea of having art permanently written in my skin to be fascinating. im a fan of art in general and tattoos are just another form of it. and the act of getting them itself is fulfilling. its painful, it takes time and money. theres something i like about the idea that you really have to earn this. youre getting these pieces of art on you for the cost of blood. also i just like how it looks of course.

True. But it depends, its not the same to say the Muslims kill christians than to say tattooed people are criminals or something of that kind. I know I would be lying if I said I never believed in a stereotype but to be honest, some of them (as my opinion) are irrational. Also, nice doggo pic

This. Very much, this. Paying someone to scar your body is stupid. Then they get it put on their back or some other place they can't see it without a mirror or such.

That's like buying a painting or sculpture and putting it in a closet.

And so many people who get them don't have the money to piss away anyway, but somehow have enough money to get a neck tattoo - and then will bitch because they can't find decent job.

Correct about the tattoos, wrong about the decent job. I plan on retiring in my mid-50's - sooner depending upon the scholarships my children get to college.

One thing that will help me retire early is not pissing my money away on tattoos, smoking, drinking a lot, drugs, not having to pay child support to a woman who had my child but is now fucking some other guy, etc.

Nope. I'm a supervisor. I tell other people to run the machinery they'll lose blood on. And, even ones who have lost fingers haven't gotten to retire due to disability because we can always prove they were trained to NOT do what they did.

I'm just smart enough to realize that you have to have some fun along the way, but cigarettes, drugs, tattoos, excessive drinking, screwing around a lot and chasing the latest fads was a good way to stay poor.

A friend of mine was bragging about how great he was going to have it now that he graduated college. The dumb fuck was already $60K in debt before he turned 30, and didn't even own his own home.

you are correct.

but why are they so normalized now? i'll tell you why. it's because laser tattoo removal has progressed alot over the years and they charge ridiculous amounts of money to have 8+ sessions to get rid of them.

it's all a scam and you motherfuckers keep falling for it. if you get a tat, make sure it's meaningful.

It doesn't surprise me that you are too stupid to understand that other people are paying hundreds and even thousands for that stuff.

Some look nice - but only for $5. Hell, most of the stuff I've bought I could sell the frame for $5. Or, better yet, I've taken some to resale shops and taken tax credits for significantly more than I paid.

Nope. I just am smart enough to not piss my money away on stupid stuff. All my life I've watched people pay out the nose for popular stuff - toys, games, electronics. Unless it is something I NEED, I've always been able to wait until the feeding frenzy died down and then buy what I WANT for a reasonable amount.

Okay cockfags, how about this? My brother went postal when I was thirteen and my second brother had to shoot him or else he would have hurt and possibly killed my older sister and mother. I was really close with my brother, crazy as he may have been, and so were my siblings. So far, three of the remaining four of us all have tributes to him in binary code, since he was a programmer. Mine says "Forever Loved Never Forgotten (His name here)". It's on my thigh and is completely covered up as long as I'm at least in shorts. It is purely for me and my memories.

So to honor him who tried to kill your mom and sister, you paid someone to scar your body.

He had serious mental disorders that weren't treated. Unfortunately in most situations you can't force treatment. The thing was, he was usually stable, and he was by no means a bad person. I grew up with him, I learned from him, and I cherish that. Also, my brother in law is a graphic designer and did a bunch of work for an artist, so to pay back the favor the artist did my tattoo (roughly two hundred to two fifty dollars) for free.

Lots of small tattoos. She told me she spent about a good $400 on them total.

I think there's two sides of it. There's people who don't spend a lot of money on their tattoos and you can obviously tell. And they're doing it for attention or cause it's "badass" Then there's people who have favorite artist and styles that they like and follow. So they don't mind spending whatever for the tattoos because it's almost like collecting art that's original to you and you'll always have it with you to show.

Lmaooo you guys are so conservative holy shit, I have a shit ton of tats, and they literally have no meaning. I get them because I like how they make my atletic

My tatts cover self harm scars on my arms...lame I know. However tattoos are seen as being more socially acceptable than self harm scars. Also, I like tattoos because they are permanent, its nice to have something to make you feel grounded since this generation is overwhelmed with information I sometimes find it difficult living by certain codes/morals/philosophies. The tattoos act as a spiritual map, so to speak.

But yeah. They are very pop atm.

Honestly, I love getting ink, I enjoy kickin' back with my people and getting blasted. Every tattoo I have has meaning behind it and for me it's snapshots of my life and the journey I've been on. If there ever comes a day when they stack me and my homies in a a pile, they can read the hieroglyphs and enjoy the story. A lot of people wanna be cool, but honestly it's primordial, markings of strength. Those who cana endure without infections have stronger immune systems, etc.
