How does /tg/ feel about tabletop related tattoos?

>>48699675
Tattoos are ugly.

>>48699675
thats a pretty cool one

I want an Aquila but I worry about people thinking it's nazi related.

Do people who get tattoos like this just think they won't live until they're 50 or so? It looks pretty cool now I guess but for the rest of her life she is going to have to explain it every time see wears something that doesn't cover it completely. That might be nice if she only attends magic events, but workplaces, social events, weddings, etc., etc...why would you do that to yourself. Especially because once your skin starts to sag or you gain weight or the tattoo fades its going to look much worse.

I think tattoos that have personal meanings to people are great and if they think they can handle the repercussions (covering up, maybe regretting it later on), more power to them. It just seems a little shortsighted, but who am I to judge I guess

>>48699904
tattoos on the back are a pretty good choice because back skin doesn't sag very much

>>48699904
Have you been to social events? It's 2016, nobody cares about tattoos.

I was looking at about 3-4 hours depending how much I moved.

That was the closest one, I also wanted a cleric/paladin tattoo, holy light divinity and stuff, but I could never figure out what I wanted.

Seriously though. If you want a tattoo. Get one

There is not many repercussions were I live. It's not a big deal.

I dislike tattoos in general.

They mark you as someone "trying to be cool", and in a way that says "I don't care about the future." It just sends all sort of bad messages, like "I don't really care about my body" or "If you don't like my tattoo, there's nothing either of us can do, so you just have to deal with it."

At best, the only positive messages are that you are willing to commit to things (even if what you're committing to is stupid) and that you want to preserve a moment of your life (even if it's done in a terrible way), but compared to all the negative messages like "I idealize criminals and whores" or "I spent hundreds of dollars for someone to doodle on my skin" or "I think getting poked with needles for a few hours makes me a badass" just makes the entire idea somewhat repulsive.

Like, really, what the actual fuck are you saying.
Why the hell getting a tatoo is not caring about the future or your body, or idealizing criminal or whores?

Being obese is objectively worse than getting a tatoo in both of these respects, like many others habits.

You seem to have difficulties grasping the fact that people get tatoos because they like the esthetic part of it.

>>48703449
Wow they really struck a nerve didn't they. Y'know I wouldn't mind tattoofags if they didn't get so needlessly defensive about them, not everyone is going to agree with your aesthetic sensibilities. how can you not understand that? Some people think tattoos look cool, others are kind of neutral or decide on a case by case basis and others just think the whole concept is kind of silly. It's called diversity you bigot.

>>48703931
>Why the hell getting a tatoo is not caring about the future

Because you don't really care what you'll think of in the future. You can't even conceive of the idea that you might regret having a tattoo, either because of a dramatic difference in tastes as you grow older (sometimes called maturation), or that the design might not come out the way you intended and you'll be left with a permanent testament to your lack of foresight.

>Being obese is objectively worse than getting a tatoo in both of these respects, like many others habits.

And being obese is bad too. I don't understand why you even bothered bringing that up.

>You seem to have difficulties grasping the fact that people get tatoos because they like the esthetic part of it.

The "aesthetic" aspect of a tattoo tends to be quite personal, and at the end of the day, living human skin is a poor canvas for art. While I can appreciate body painting and even temporary tattoos, I struggle to understand the rationale for a person to get a tattoo in the interest of aesthetics.

It would be like a painter deciding to paint only on one canvas, as well as to parade that single canvas around.

As an artist myself, the idea that you'd commit to something like that seems genuinely silly, especially because I have friends who have designed their own tattoos, and they really should have at least waited until they were actually good designers before committing to the pen like that.

Also, yes, historically tattoos were the marks of criminals and whores. They still largely are, which is half of the appeal. Do you think that people get tattoos and think "Oh yeah, I want to be like a sixteen year old girl getting her first 'I-hate-daddy' tattoo"? No, they compare themselves to pirates and gang leaders, prostitutes and porn stars.

>>48703464
Yeah, it's just the contrast and colour depth in them fading. And that "ancient fucker with tattoos from another lifetime" look has a certain charm to it as well.

As long as you're not aspiring to become Captain Obesity or something in your 40s/50s you should be alright.

>>48703931
They're definitely right that at the moment tattoos are really faddish and that makes them sort of lame, there's nothing cool about doing what literally everybody else is doing. Hopefully that'll settle down in a few years and they'll go back to being kind of cool as opposed to painfully cliche like they are now.

>>48699675
This thread reminds me of a question I had for a game. Would the Yakuza take offense to someone who isn't a Yakuza, getting a tattoo in the same style that they generally get? Would they consider him a pretender, or just accept that the look has kind of fallen into popular culture and there's not much they can do about it?

>>48703362

I brought it up because, if that is the logic with which you apporach life, you must be quite miserable, as nearly everything can be viewed with that point of view:

>cigarette smoking
>alcool
>any kind of drug, regardless of legality
>listening to hip hop music

>>48704168

repeating the word "fuck" in every sentence does not make you look like a grizzled veteran

>>48704182
>cigarette smoking

>any kind of drug, regardless of legality
You realize listing the first two is kind of unnecessary given what you wrote after the third right? Alcohol and tobacco are drugs, legal ones.

>>48704081

The true question is, why are you so butthurt about something that doesn't impact at all your life that you have to come on a website to shitpost about it?

>>48704151
Depends on the gang, arrangement of the tattoos, and how dumb you might be acting.

Having a tattoo of Thor wouldn't get you killed by a Pagan, but acting like you're tough ass in a biker bar with one might.

>>48704194
Someone asked me my opinion, and I offered it.

I'm just sad that you're offended at the idea that people can judge you based on your decisions. Trying to project your own butthurt on me is also kind of sad.

>>48704198
I just heard it was automatic death, even most bikies aren't allowed to get their club tattoos because you have to prove yourself first, serve the club for a long time etc. I'd go with death for your game personally, gangsters wouldn't take kindly to people apparently trying to impersonate them. This isn't like normalfag tattoos where they're just trying to look cool to impress people (fuck off that's not the reason, it's okay we all want to look cool you're just human) there tattoos have actual meaning to them.

Maybe this is just Australian bikies though and other countries are different, I dunno I just heard it would be a really terrible idea to get a bikie club tattoo unless that club okayed it.

>>48704182
>nearly everything

Nah didn't strike a nerve. I totally get that not all people like tattoos, and that's fine with me. I was just laughing at the little sperg out at the end there because I have no idea what he was trying to articulate.

>>48704218
Oh, you're talking quite literally about copying a piece like it's flash.

Yeah that's not a great idea. That's what I meant about arrangement. How a piece is put together is usually as important as what it features. Facing a certain way, numbers in a certain order or placement, color usage.

I was just referring to the Pagans using Norse mythology in general.

nearly every lifestyle choice can be judged on the same standards, I only offered a few.

Eating, alcool, dancing, being a vegan, sunbathing, not getting a serious degree can be counted has "not caring about your future or your body".

What are you, a 50 years old father living in the bible belt?

You took a minor detail on somebody life and built a sandcastle of prejudice and assumption on it. I merely said that if you live your life, using that kind of reasoning on everything you see, you're going to be miserable

>>48704310
>Eating, alcool, dancing, being a vegan, sunbathing, not getting a serious degree can be counted has "not caring about your future or your body".

I'm sorry, but all you've done so far is express how stupid you are. False-equivalency and all that, especially because you're hoping to use it to distract people from all the other points that were made.
It also sounds like you're a fat alcoholic druggy vegan with a bad tan and a bad job, who listens to hip hop music and doesn't feel bad about any of that.

At least the vegan part isn't too bad, though you being fat makes it more ironic than anything.

And, I don't think someone like you should be offering life advice, since it doesn't actually sound like you're older than twenty or so. It almost sounds like you just want to justify all the mistakes you've made in your life, hoping that if other people make them you'll also feel better.

Try more projecting man. People do not need to be part of something to defend it

I work in an science/export company, we sell really fancy laboratory devices to standards labs in places.

We're holding interviews, a colleague of mine is doing the first round of selections. Girl turns up, she speaks about 4-languages, and has a doctorate in Bio-Chemistry. I'm excited.

My colleague, lets call her Doris, comes back, guess what she says "she had silly pink hair, loads of tattoos and piercings"

She literally didn't comment on anything else, I flipped and asked about her CV, her experience, my colleague barely remembered anything about her other than "pink hair".

Moral of the story: no idea, maybe that people are idiots. Maybe "the nail that stands out gets hammered down". Maybe fuck my employer.

Sounds like you're getting a little upset about people telling you the common perception of people with tattoos.

Don't like it? Don't get a tattoo. Hell, half the reason people get tattoos is so people think they're part of some sort of "culture". You can't try to take only the good while pretending the bad doesn't exist.

>>48704536

>>48704560
I'm glad you think you are "so wild" for having one tattoo. A mark of pride for yourself, I'm sure.

Overall, I don't really think it's all that bad to judge you as a twat for having a tattoo, because it's kind of clear you'd be a twat with or without one.

>>48704081
There's a really interesting book "The Art of Pain" by a guy called Cyril Siorat which takes an analytic approach to the cultural background of why people get tattoos, as well as their value artistically.
Admittedly it is written by someone who practices tattoo but I think it's a worthwhile read if you're trying to understand why people value tattoo so much.

>>48704538
>>48704560
Also my tattoo was for deeply personal reasons to commemorate a turn in my life that saved me from being one of the pathetic NEETs you, or some other dipshit anon, was claiming that I must be for having one. Not to be a part of some "culture".

>>48704931
Judging us by the 40k fans is judging us by the worst of us.

Especially because they do dumb things like pretend this board was made for them and that they deserve special attention, all just because they've got a lot of meme-chanting kids in their ranks who believe that a few spammed threads in /b/ were enough to make moot care about their little toy men.

I'm just going to go ahead and discount your personal experience.

In general, a tattoo isn't a small thing, but a permanent and often expensive, painful, and time consuming decision a person makes for themselves. Or, it's a flippant stain they brand themselves with when drunk one night.

Either way, it's perfectly valid to judge people based on them deciding to get tattoos. Typically, it just means you're someone who's trying to be cool, or worse someone trying to be "deep", and you can't figure out how to do that without getting someone to scribble on you.

>>48705194
Know someone? No. Know something about them? Yes.

You're going to argue that there's nothing to be gleamed from that bit of information? No points to correlate?

>>48705256
Is it true that each loli sleeve gets you your very own real life waifu?

>>48705265
No, I was explaining that I know quite a bit about tattoos. Don't run away with strawmanning just for it's own sake, dummy.

>>48705274
Yep.

>>48705266
They surely like tattoo and likely don't care about shithead who think they must be gang member or prostitute if they have tattoo

That's all.

That's like thinking that every girl who has colored hair is a whore, or every teenager with a skateboard is a dangerous delinquant, or d&d players are satanists

The only person I know with a tattoo works at NASA.
Just putting that out there.

Personally I don't see the appeal in getting a tattoo.

>>48705286
But you don't dummy!
You know people that have tattoo, and you say they're all dumb and fit your stereotype.

You have anecdotal edivence and you say that having a tattoo = being dumb as brick

You're either a funny bait or a funny dumb dumb. Both make me laugh, so keep going

>>48705256
That's nice? You're still pretty dumb though, especially if you think people on 4chan care or believe you.

Like, what are you doing on 4chan?

>>48705288
So how does it work? I get the ink, and after the artist checks my body pillow for authenticity I find them at home? Or do I have to do something else?

>>48705266
Not as much as you seem to think. I mean if I were to know the people I know with tattoos as reference for what people with tattoos must be like them I'd be assuming people with tattoos are various forms of scientist. But I'd be some twat to assume everyone I met with a tattoo was in science.

Well let me explain the concept of signalling to you faggot. We dress and act the way we do to appeal to the people we want to be associated with. This means people dying their hair red and covering themselves in tattoos want to appeal to that "I'm a special snow flake" crowd. Even if they don't outwardly admit it, that's a fundamental human in group strategy at work. The same way nerds wear nerdy gaming shirts to signal to other games they are part of that in group.

When you get a tattoo you send a very clear social message. It says something about your personality, who you are and who you want to be. As such I can and I will judge you on the choices because that's how you judge people's quality of character.

Next you will be claiming people wearing rainbow shirts with "gay pride" written on them isn't signalling they promote homosexuality.

>>48705693
The fedora tip, the point of no argument.

>>48705595
>can't give a reason to tattoos are bad beyond "people will judge you"

Do you naturally grow tattoos?
It's an unnatural body modification, same as getting little horns implanted in your head.

>>48705702
>When you get a tattoo you send a very clear social message. It says something about your personality, who you are and who you want to be. As such I can and I will judge you on the choices because that's how you judge people's quality of character.

What about tattoos in non-visible areas that you get just for yourself?

>>48705702
>What? People wear things they like? They care about their appearance because they want to be beautiful for themselves? NONSENSE! WE ONLY CARE ABOUT PEOPLE AROUND US! THAT'S HOW I FEEL AND THAT'S HOW YOU FEEL!

You're insecure as fuck mate

>Tattoofags believe humans don't judge one another
>Or they do but believe tattoos are somehow exempt

I don't know which one is more retarded, but surely that's the one tattoofags would choose.

>>48699904

You're arguing with "live the moment" teens and twenty something "geeks" and "nerds" here, there's no winning to be had.

While I can appreciate the artistry behind some tattoos (OPs is a very faithful version of the original, which is by itself quite a nice painting), I just don't see how it can be a good idea to engrave something into yourself that, best case scenario, will look tacky or like shit in 10 years.

That said, those will be non-issues when high quality temporary/easily removable ink becomes much more affordable.

>>48705757

>>48699675
Tattoos are cool, thigh I don't understand the few posts about "class" I've seen plenty of rich people with shitty tats and poorfags with sweet sleeves.

It's art. You find a good artist and the shit looks good. Most gripes about them aren't really a problem, like them looking bad when you're older doesn't exist. Skin looks bad when you don't take care of it, and chances are you take care of it if you have a tattoo. Depending on where you live, most people don't give a shit about tattoos, either.

>>48705790

>planning to have sex

Sex is just a signalling strategy to show your investment in the dominant social paradigm. Nobody would have sex if it weren't for social stigma, tbqh, because all people care about is the public opinion on how they fuck.

>>48704417
>Speaks four languages
>But still nobody wishes to speak with pink haired weirdo

The system works.

>>48705702
>rainbow shirts

I've actually done that and I'm straight, but that's beside the point.

The point is that the assumption that having a tattoo, or dying your hair a weird colour while we're on the matter, means you absolutely must belong to certain social groups or even aspire to be a part of them is retarded and misses the vital caveat that people can just like the look of a thing without conforming to an associated stereotype. Fuck me this /tg/, by your thinking we're all fat virgins but it ain't difficult to find someone talking about someone they know, or even themselves, who doesn't even remotely fit the stereotype. Not everything is signalling anon, sometimes its just a preference.

There is a thing called "Old money" and "New money". Old money comes with class, a stiff upper lip and respect. New money comes with a bimbo, a sports car and a cocaine habit. Being rich doesn't mean you have class, it means you have money which is not the same thing.

Man...the levels of autism here are astounding.

Are tattoos really that taboo outside the places that matter? I.e. anywhere that isn't coastal America?

Hey mate, you're the one spouting shit with no evidence since the very start you know. Wake up a bit.

"Old money" and "New money" is a way for people who inherited and have lived in wealth for several decade to say "well, we're not like these nouveau riche plebeian!"

If you believe it's class, it say a lot more about you that dislking tattoo

>>48705902
Do you ever think "I really want some orange juice" or do you think "I must intake more vitamin C because it is at a sub optimal level and I must replenish it if I wish to survive.

That preference is a signalling mechanic, just because you don't register that you're doing it doesn't mean you're not doing it.

Several decades is not Old money. Old money is an estate that has gone on for decades. It's the Lords and Ladies of the British empire, not some pleb who made it big in Silicon valley. the more you post the dumber you look because you keep making completely incorrect points while acting like a smug cunt.

>>48705984
And you like the taste because it provides Vitamin C. The same way you like the taste of sugar and fat because they provide lots of energy to help survive the winter. It's almost as if human taste is fed by a subconscious desire for foods that provide the resources we need to function and prepare for the future.

Personality traits are passed on genetically. Especially from the mother where a mother's level of tension can produce anxiety disorders in her children or where if she is unable to find food during some parts of pregnant they will have a much faster metabolism as a result.

Do you not understand anything about genetics? It requires a lot of intelligence and the right personality to stay rich, it's not something that just passively happens. Money decays over time as you spend it and as it loses value, you must keep succeeding at earning more or you end up poor within 3 generations.

If genes don't effect personality then black people are just randomly more violent no matter where they are on the planet or in a society. Which we know is 100% wrong.

Do genes completely define personality? Of course not, no one claimed such a thing. But we know many traits which are important towards someone's personality (such as anxiety levels, intelligence and impulsiveness) are passed on genetically.

There is room for nature and nurture, it's a combination of both but that doesn't invalidate either concept the way you're claiming. The doesn't need to be A gene for personality because there is more to your genetics than just the genes. Genes are like the cars on a road, there are traffic lights and different roads they can take. It goes deeper than just your genes. The article even mentions RNA maybe where personality is defined in honey bees. Which is again genetics as I pointed out.

You keep trying to argue with someone who studies evolutionary psychology for fun by googling shit and you still fall flat on your face

>a common and everyday practice
Which prison were you doing time in, mate?

Because that's the first question you will hear upon someone spotting a tattoo on you. And no amount of hipster pretense will change that.

It's funny, really. Hipsters came in, started inking themselves and then realised that the only other people around with ink are recidivists and people who served long term in some slam.
Suddenly so many beauty clinics started selling tattoo removal it often ended up being their main business.

But sure, keep enchanting the reality with your believe people don't associate tattoos with criminals, bad decisions and long-term prison. Just save up enough dough to remove your ink doodle when you will realise how fucked you are.

Tattoos used to be cool and hip because they were co-opted by genuinely cool and hip people, then people started getting tattoos "ironically" to show that they aren't degenerates despite having tattoos. Now we're at the point where they're the ultimate sign of a poser, particularly if your tattoo has an elaborate backstory about the significance of the falling leaves in the background yadda yadda yadda. Some tattoos look good, most look awful, and getting a table top related tattoo of anything puts you in the "Pokemon GO" tier of try-hard fake nerd.

Personally, I want a tattoo, I can afford one, and if I get what I want it'll cover up some ugly scars, but it's a quarter sleeve just covering my shoulder, so it would be hidden by short sleeves at all times. The reason I havent got one is because I don't want to settle for sub-par art on my body blah blah useless art history degree and I don't want to talk to those idiots with awful tattoos about how great it is having a tattoo. I mean christ, I was at the airport and this bitch literally had cat faces tattooed on her knees. Not good cat faces, but like generic cartoon cat faces on her knees among a shitload of awful bullshit tattoos. I do NOT want to be forced into an awkward conversation with those people, because they're almost as bad as wiccans when it comes to believing nonsense and justifying poor life choices through self-righteous masturbation.

You do know almost nothing in science is 100% accurate yes? Even our basic understanding of physics is not 100% accurate and requires multiple different models to function within reality.

You're not presenting arguments, you're just getting upset that someone is proving you wrong from a scientific background and you're getting emotional and lashing out for it.

Do you believe that, honestly? I'm 99% sure it's just cucks and people talking about black dick all the time. A university is a place where you can offer any opinion on things, even if people get offended. /pol/ is a place 14 year old spergs who are too edgy for /b/ hang out to pretend to be knowledgable about something they've never studied.

>>48706908

That is very good science my friend, /pol/ would be proud

Not purely /tg/, but I do intend to get an elder sign on me at some point. It's simple but meaningful and shows an important interest of mine to anyone who recognizes it.

Universities are not a good place to offer your opinion, they're a good place to soak up information.

Well, sure, crimes committed by blacks are more common. But is that a question of their nature? Or of their nurture? Perhaps a black man that doesn't grow up in ghetto would become a proper citizen as easily as a man of other ethnicity. I mean, It's not like Bill Cosby is a serial rapist, right?

>>48706958
Yes and no. Undergrads are about slamming your head into a wall and absorbing a shitloads of useless information. If your opinions are shitty and argued poorly, I can see your point. If you`re articulate and well researched, you can write about almost anything. I had a leftist circle-jerking teacher for my "cultural politics" class and I was allowed to write a paper on why people should lose the right to self-governance, based on the general level of education of individuals, relative to their ability to understand basic concepts in our democratic institution. I just went outside during a federal election and asked all the white people with dreadlocks simple questions about the various political platforms, it was hilarious. I ended up receiving very high marks in that class even though she disagreed with me about everything, because you can't fail someone who knows the course content and can phrase it articulately.

>>48706993
Read up on your social sciences faggot. Ghetto crime happens in ghettos regardless of race. Take your crime statistics and tell me the class, employment and education of those people. All low or nonexistent. Look at the area. Poor schooling, few employers in generally poor community.

>A university is a place where you can offer any opinion on things

You mean it's a safe space for liberal ideas, right?
But really, your whole problem is that you're so far left that you're genuinely surprised by people offering opinions you haven't heard outside of the safe space you call your life, which is why you probably never see anything beyond the opinions that startle you when you actually go to an open forum.

College grad here. Every person who had dissenting opinions was allowed to opine just as much as anyone else, as long as they were articulate and didn't devolve into name calling.

I'd venture to guess most colleges are fairly lenient with such things, as long as you aren't a mouthbreathing idiot prone to angry outbursts. Which of course, invalidates three-quarters of this thread

I didn't say anything about my political opinions in this thread, yet people are already on delusional tirades about leftist propaganda and whatnot. It would be funny, if he wasn't 110% serious. It's just not worth getting worked up over anymore because they're the political equivalent of arguing with dysentery. I just wish there was a better way to quarantine them.

Yellow sign's something I've considered too. I'm thinking one on each shoulder. Main thing that's stopped me is just being short on cash. That and having to explain to the tattoo artist that spends all day etching intricate roses and shit into people's backs that I want like 4 straight lines.......that's it. And for the other one 3 curved lines. Think you can handle that, mister artist?

For the autistic lulz only desu, but it looks cool too. I'd say just it's from some books I like, I already don't really explain the only other tattoo I have if they don't insist on it.

There are countless studies on it dude. Even blacks immediately adopted by whites have a higher rate of criminality.

Criminality is directly related to intelligence. The lower your IQ the more likely you are to be a criminal. As such blacks with an average IQ of 85 means they're more likely to be criminal than races with higher IQ averages. And no that doesn't mean all blacks are criminals and all whites are not, only that blacks are more likely to be criminals.

It depends. I'm a filthy second worlder and here the principle that if professor picked up the job back in the commie era or shortly after, you don't argue against them, because if they remember your face as a dissident and you happen to run into them at your final exams, they will bring you down.
If they've became a professor recently, you might have a chance for "open" discussion. Unless they are protege of old-timer (either did PhD directly under them or are blood related).

The graduation rate of our colleges is between 30 and 50 % so nobody will look into one promising student failing unexpectedly at the finals. On the flipside, state colleges are free, so you'll lose nothing but time.

(I'm not sure about the terminology college vs university here - state colleges are free but cutthroat, private university is expensive but will coddle the student - I think it's opposite than in the States)

In Canada, a University is a hybrid of private and public funding focusing on degrees, whereas colleges are more akin to tradeschools where you get a certificate. Colleges are generally cheaper and more accessible, universities are this weird hybrid of cutthroat brutality and literal pay-to-win durdle through your 4 year degree in 7 bullshit.

I also appreciate you using second world accurately. It`s very rare to find someone who knows what they`re talking about.

What you`re describing is the repressive hypothesis, which is actually a concept coined by my favorite left-wing political theorist of all time, Foucault. Don`t worry, things will swing back in 5 years time. It`s the same reason metal isn`t popular any more, but will be in the future when people unironically like it ironically.

Left wing politics won't pop up again in 5 years time. If you haven't noticed the left has flooded many countries with violent and sexually aggressive Muslims. We're looking at "civil" wars all across Europe just waiting to happen.

What has happened is the left has attempted to murder the native populations by inviting in violent outsiders. The natives will now respond with their own culture's version of fascism to remove the invaders and the leftist traitors who invited them in.

It's easy to say "it's a pendulum, it swings back and forth between left and right" until you realise that the left is ultimately trying to get you killed. When people realize that fact it doesn't swing back towards the left in a few years. It turns into a fight for survival between civilization and anti-civilization.
