teenageloser33 Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 Well I was wondering everyone's personal opinion on tattoo's. Personally I'm 17 and I have six tattoo's. Really four, because two of them are pairs. What are your thoughts on them? Cool or not? Big mistake or your own choice? That's my latest tattoo I got done about 2 weeks ago.

Scruffy5389 Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 I've got nothing against them. The reason I don't have any and don't plan on getting any is because of their permanance. I think your tattoos are pretty cool, and I wouldn't mind flames around my ankles, but what about when I'm sixty? I have yet to see an old fart look good in a tattoo :wink: So yeah, I think tattoos are cool on young people. I think I would look pretty cool with a tattoo. I'd probably get a tiger or eagle or something natural looking. No color, cuz I've always thought that can look kind of tacky (although your dragon looks pretty cool with color). But I'm not staying young and sexy forever, and I don't want to be a sixty year old with skinny wrinkled arms and a grubby lookin tattoo :? That's just my personal preference, though. If you want to get a tattoo, that's cool. Nothin against it, I kind of admire it, but I wouldn't want to do it to myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 Do you shave your legs or something? O.o Anyway tattoos aren't for me. Will never get one. I don't really care if anyone else gets them as some look alright, but I think sometimes they just look really lame. Like when I was 17 a couple of friends got a tattoo of an American Indian on their left arms. What will they think when they are like 30 or something.

Evil_Elf Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 If I ever get one, it would be something of meaning to me, not stripes and some japaneese symbol (not that they don't mean something to you, I'm just saying I wouldnt). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azvareth Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 Dude, I love the colours. Black + red = always win. As soon as I turn 18, I'm getting one as well. I'm getting it either on my arm (under the elbow) or... uh... excuse my poor vocabulary but the upper-part of the arm (the biceps area). Nothing colourful, as that looks like crap after a few years. I'll probably get either a full-black or one in black and red. :P Don't got a clue what motif I want though. // Azvi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatalspider Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 when i turn 18 im going to get 2 tats, one on my foot of a date when a close friend died :( , and one of like footprints in the sand going up the leg winding (im a runner :) ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 Needles are bad mkay, my mate Alan got his... So he pinched me really hard and told me that's what it felt like. Not gonna happen! :lol: If I didn't have a morbid fear of needles and pain I'd probably get a dragon on my forearm or something, Dragons own. Notoriously Trollish.

Pete_the_Viscous Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 I personally have nothing against tatoos, mainly because a lot of people for whom I have a lot of respect have them. That's not to say I'd ever get one, or that I respect someone more for having one, but I don't bear disrespect for people simply because they have them. On the other hand, getting them because they're "cool" I dissaprove of, and I think a lot of designs look silly -- that is to say, out of place / don't really fit with my impressions of the person. deviantart account Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jesselt Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 I think that they look good if you get a few of them, I really like yours. I don't like it when people tatoo their whole body though, then it just all blends together and makes your skin look green............... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ne0z Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 well if you have 1 or 2, i think they are alright but once u start getting 5+ tattoo's it just starts looking messy... :? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
assassin_696 Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 Nothing against people who have them, but i've always regarded tatoos as a bit of a turn off. And i like to keep my body clean from unnatural markings. "Da mihi castitatem et continentam, sed noli modo" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjlhdevil Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 Big mistake, gonna look stupid in old age, they arn't like navy tattoos which mark your life, and you got stupid chinese/japanese writing. Unless you speak or write chinese/japnese it's not cool and actually have no idea what it may say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
How2PK Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 I don't think they look very good. The dragon is a bit weird. And I don't like dragons on that kind of stuff very much either, to be honest. I hate it when people have somekind of white t-shirt with a dragon on it, it looks so cheap'o. But that's just me. I have been considering to get one the last few months, but I don't really know what to do. I mean, this whole tribal thing is more some kind of hype, and it will be boring in ten years. I guess I have to find some kind of special thing. :wink: Signature by Maurice SendakWhen the stars make you drool just like a pasta fazool, that's amore!

I_AM_SLICEMAN Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 I am firmly against Americans unrelated in the CHinese/Japenese getting tattoos of it. On the other foot, I want a fish somewhere, I fish, sometimes everyday. It would symbolize something in my life, though I dont know If I would do it.

Lordjake Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 Getting tattoos for attention = bad Getting tattoos to commemorate something = okay Personally, I don't plan on getting tattoo'd because I don't want to still have that paint on my body 50+ years from now, might look goofy.

Rizla Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 I'm all for tattoo's as long as they're not the usual clicḫ̩̉̉ crap. Sorry to say it but tribal designs and oriental writing are probably my least favourite of all, simply because everyone has them. I have 1 piercing and i probably will get a tattoo sometime soon, i'm just undecided on what to have. I'll probably just get a mate to design something for me, that way i know i'm never gonna bump into someone who has the exact same design as me. Kirk and Lars I could handle. At the same time.

SkULLEDPK3R Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 The only reason i would ever get a tattoo is like if i was a NAVY SEAL it would be on my arm sayn that or if i was stoned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knives669 Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 I've got nothing against tatoos. I know alot of people who give tattoos for a living, although, I have seen some bad looking and tacky tattoos. I don't know if I would ever get one. That's a big decision because of permenance. If I was to get one, it would probably be a small one. :D BTW, your tattoos are really cool. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boogie Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 A lot of people are forgetting that tattoos can be removed these days. As for myself, if I do get a tattoo, it will have to mean something to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teenageloser33 Posted August 15, 2005 Author Share Posted August 15, 2005 I am firmly against Americans unrelated in the CHinese/Japenese getting tattoos of it. On the other foot, I want a fish somewhere, I fish, sometimes everyday. It would symbolize something in my life, though I dont know If I would do it. What does it matter? That means something to me.... The whole tattoo is a custom design I did myself. Number two the chinese symbol stands for year of the dragon since I was born in 1988 the year of the dragon. The flames I got on my ankles is something myself and my dad both got. The 3 stars I have on each of my collar bones is because of my grandpa, and the chinese symbol on my arm stands for wolf as my last name is Wolfrum and everyone calls me wolf. As for the fact why are you against it? Does it offend you somehow? I mean it's quite honestly an inane statement you made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gj. :P As for me, I'd say that your tatoos are common, but I know you know that. There's nothing wrong with a common tattoo, its just different opinioins. I'm actually thinking of getting one soon, but I dunno. Probably not. I guess I'll wait until some sense comes back into my head. Lol. But I want a small tatoo on my left chest muscle or something. I really think tattoos that are large and visible are un attractive. Smaller tattoos in more covered areas (ie chest, lower back, ankle, etc) are more appealing, even tho no one can really see them. Meh, I dunno. I just think its cool. Lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gj. :P That's because, unlike most people with such tattoo's, his actually have a said prupose (as explained). If they were just random crap which was like "yeah that looks cool" it would've been a different issue. But they're not so I have no problem with it either. It's just the whole "awesome tat man!" *goes off and gets tribal tat done just to be "hip"* which annoys me. Hence why the only tat's I'd ever get done would be designs I've done my myself or had friends design for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
