I had quite a long discussion (drawn out over a few days in fact) with a friend about tattoos a while back. She wanted to get a tattoo on her foot that said “Dragon” in Chinese…very original…
- I rewarded myself with this tattoo after …
What were you thinking! That’s like saying I’ll reward myself by amputating a digit or having my incisors extracted. Those are also equally painful, permanent and pointless.
- My BFF and I got the same tattoo…
You need a tattoo to remind you that you have a BFF! Surely the emotional bond is strong enough that you won’t forget about her (guys don’t have BFF’s).
- Re. Tattooing your girlfriends name on your arm or similar…
Why would anyone think that a tattoo effectively symbolizes a strong link they share with another? In my opinion it would just make the relationship seem cheap and shallow. If the guy below (at least I hope it’s a guy…) saw it fit to tattoo a life size Wookie head onto his leg do you honestly think your token of love in the form of a name tattooed to your arm means anything!? REALLY??? DOES IT???? HUH????? (you pillock…)
- I had my favourite childhood t-shirt tattooed to my torso
No comment…
- My tattoo is art
Oh really! I don’t suppose it would be possible to appreciate the images created by your blobs of subcutaneous ink in any other medium (paper, cathedral ceilings, marble sculptures…). Besides, I’ve always found skin to have the EXACT right properties for enhancing the colour and depth needed by great artists… sigh…
As far as I can see, the logical reasons anyone would get a tattoo are relatively few. After much thought, I have composed a list:
- My parents demanded I get one (you could have really peculiar parents… just listen to them and you will survive).
- I lost a bet.
- It covers the scar I got from a nasty hot pie accident.
- It distracts people from looking at my ugly, leprosy covered face.
- I’m an idiot with no common sense.
So in response to my posts title, if I were forced to get a tattoo it would say
“tattoos are stupid”
I would probably hide it in an armpit or something

eebee dear your post is just a whole bunch of html
Between the coding, I'd say I generally agree with you, but once again I can't really judge people ebcause I haven't got a tattoo and I've never been in the position where a tattoo seems like a good idea at all, so I can't pretend to have thought it through properly.
I just can't think of anythinig I wold want to look at every day for the rest of my life. and what about when you get old and wrnkly and it distorts?
Strange, it looks fine on my PC.
I've edited it again, hopefully the HTML stuff will have gone. let me know.
Helen: if you think looking at the same tattoo for the rest of your life will get boring imagine having to answer the same questions every single time someone sees your tattoo!!!
"hey you have a tattoo! What is it/what does it mean/why did you get it???"
I would have sand papered it off by the end of the first year at least!
Have you seen old people tattoos? I wonder how bad they look (but also have this fear of doing a google image search at the same time).
I agree with you, a waste of money, so dam expensive. At least a piercing you can take out ad it heals. I do know that Miami Ink is like the most Famous Tattoo Parlor in the US, whoohoo. I would get a tattoo if it were really nice and maybe free :) and removable...but in the end i'd prob chicken out..man it must hurt.. and after a while you forget you even have it. whats the point?
Hey Kazz, you should get a henna tattoo. they are painless and temporary (around 2 months). only come in red/black or green though.
