[QUOTE=Phantom_Blue]How can your opinion be "right", it's subjective, of course there's no argument.
No hositility here, but I also wonder what compels someone to say something like "tattoos are for insercure punks". There was obiviously a reason behind it, whether it was to get a reaction, or maybe someone with tattoos violated you in the past? Curious.[/QUOTE]
He once made a thread about having a 2inch *****, so i'd say that has something to do with it.
[QUOTE=-p.tiddy-]I still have troubles thinking about what I would think "looks cool" the rest of my life...[/QUOTE]Ha, yep. Same here. I don't have anything I feel that needs to be memorialized on my body and I most certainly don't think I could think of something cool enough to make myself believe that I'd always love it.
Sometimes I look back to my senior year of high school (2002) and try to imagine what kind of "cool" tattoo I would have gotten if I somehow decided I was undoubtedly going to get inked up. I'm pretty sure it would have been an unmitigated disaster. I figure it would have been either a Hieroglyphics logo, a basketball with my high school jersey number inside, or perhaps my girlfriend's initials.
Tattoos on everyday folk don't really bother me either way. That said, I do tend to see a few different categories of people in this regard. It seems I know a few who are sincerely interested in the idea of body art and committed to it. More often, it feels as if most I know went the "cool" route. It's those tats I tend to look at years later and think, "Man, they're stuck with that forever."
[quote=B-Low]Exactly. Like I said you can tell who has them for appearance and who has them because they mean something. An example is a lot of the abstract tribal stuff that isn't even a picture of something/they can't explain what it is. For example:
The Rock has a tribal tattoo. There's a whole writeup on it: " In early 2003, Dwayne traveled to Hawaii to have his family history tattooed on him
I dont have one, but maybe I will someday. Name of my children, some nice quote or something like that. Or some reminder of smt big in my life. Right now, I cant tell surely, but I simply dont see a problem with it. Tattoos, smoking, alkohol, drugs, whatever. Its your body and you have right to do whatever you want with it. I dont like guys who are arguing because someone is doing things that he likes.
But I must say I dont like those tattoos with no meaning, like that one posted here already. My friend has 2 greatest ones that I have ever seen on his back. Couple of lines for his dead mother on the left side, and nice quote on a paper on the right side. And it looks cool too.
Many of you don't understand what insecure means. :roll:
- People get tats for many reasons.....
- asking why people get tats is like asking why some believe in " religion" and why some don't?.....why some people have long hair or why some people have short hair?
- I read about that well preserved mummy "Otzi from the year 3,300 BC Ice Man" they found....My man had a tribal tats all over his body!
