doglover: Sailor Jerry actually has some damn good tats. A lot better than that tribal shiat or your tramp stamps or that chinese character you got backwards on your neck.

I disagree. I find them very unappealing and rather faddish, as tribals and Chinese characters were in the 90-00s.

Chicks love my tribal tat. Actually, it's a barbed-wire tattoo, but it looks like a Celtic design from afar.

I want a tattoo but with no ink in the apparatus.
Just for the pain.

doglover: Sarah Palin's Conscience: I disagree. I find them very unappealing and rather faddish

If everyone gets one, it's a fad. But from strictly artistic perspective: I like his art. I don't really want one on my arm, but if it was there I wouldn't hate it.

A tribal tat, on the other hand... That's a little off puttin' because you know the guy who has it is the kind of guy who would actually get a tribal tat. Unless he was actually Maori, I would encourage women to use sense and sleep with damn near anyone else.

cept the typical tribal shiat doesnt look like maori art anyway(of any art for that matter)

loves me some sailor jerry rum, it's my go to if i'm out of havana club

i have 2 tattoos, would be down for this, but i live not in chicago

Are you Vince Neil?

It should be difficult to find poor decision-makers among people who drink rum.

Also....


/tatoo porn FTW!

I'd get Drew's wife a 'crazytrain' tramp stamp in chinese symbols, but she already has one.

They don't have a Bower wearing shades playing a double-neck guitar on a surfboard on the background of a marijuana leaf on the background of a cross with "one order of egg rolls" in Chinese on it, so I am not interested.

/This tattoo need some random Asian symbols on it.

Mhmm, because everyone who gets a tattoo is an idiot. There's nothing to be said for self-expression or beautification of the body at all.

I love Sailor Jerry. His style of tattooing is incredible. He was a milestone in the history of tattooing. While I usually would never get a tattoo from a selection on a piece of paper, if it was from his actual drawings, I might reconsider.

Also, great rum.

DJ Koopa: Mhmm, because everyone who gets a tattoo is an idiot.

This.

Mad Scientist: DJ Koopa: Mhmm, because everyone who gets a tattoo is an idiot.

This.

Indeed

Yep.

The only constant in life is that ten years from now you'll realize that ten years ago you were a complete idiot who knew nothing.

I know a lot of people with tattoos, not all of them are idiots..

Been thinking about getting one myself but I can't find any image I'd want to have permanent on my body.

I will be in my bunk...

You know that is actually Michele Bachmann without her make-up.

The more time you spend, the more options you look at, the less likely you are to get it right.

It's like going to the video club for a movie:

When you walk in the door you know exactly what you want, something fresh, exciting, not too intellectual...

You start out in the blockbusters section but after 20 seconds you're thinking "there must be something better" so you wander towards the back of the shop.

After five minutes you start reading the back of the four or five DVD cases you're now carrying.

After ten minutes you've put three back and picked up three other ones.

After fifteen minutes you decide you ought to get the one with all the witty reviews and golden celluloid awards.

Half way home you have regrets.

By the time you get it in the DVD player you know you should have got anything but that that one...

doglover: AverageAmericanGuy: Chicks love my tribal tat. Actually, it's a barbed-wire tattoo, but it looks like a Celtic design from afar.

I really hope you're joking.

Actually, it's a tradition in my family to get a small tattoo of barbed wire. (It doesn't hurt that the ladies love it.) My great grandmother got the first one after the war back in 1945 to remember her husband (my great grandfather) who died in Treblinka. It's not something we force on each other, but most of the men and some women in my family have the barbed wire tattoo to remember him and his suffering in the last days of his life.

doglover: Sailor Jerry actually has some damn good tats.

What are the odds of getting a tattoo 'right'? Laughably small if you think about it.

The only thing you want tattoos for is you're an attention whore and you believe random strangers might think you're interesting enough to sleep with if you get one*. Anybody who says otherwise is deluded.

So ... what's wrong with temporary tats? Same effect, less regrets.

If anybody calls you on it for being fake you can say you're just experimenting, you love having it, you're getting the real one done in a few months (...as soon as the super exclusive tattoo artist can fit you into his amazingly busy schedule)


{*} Prison tats and real sailors excluded...

We have got to get that beer, man.

I know... Stuck at work every night until 11 isn't conducive to going out these days.

More working and less Farking would probably help me get out of here sooner, I imagine.

So you are saying if I get a tat of my late niece's badge with her badge number on it and EOW date, I am a goof?

Tattoos and crocs serve the same purpose, and they succeed alarmingly well

Tats are stupid, who looks good covered in tats sitting on a rocking chair in a old folks home or worse still, have a closed casket funeral because nobody wants to see your ugly covered hide?

jackandwater: So you are saying if I get a tat of my late niece's badge with her badge number on it and EOW date, I am a goof?

Pretty much.

I share this sentiment.

Would you really want a tattoo from an artist feeling rushed because there's 60 people behind you wanting the same thing that day?

So I should get a non-permanent one then.. Or just learn to draw and buy a sharpie

Granted, anything anyone does is for the purposes of sexual relations in some scale.

Happy to brand you. I recommend WTF?

doglover: So you are saying if I get a tat of my late niece's badge with her badge number on it and EOW date, I am a goof?

Yep. What difference will a tattoo make? You're telling me it's special and personal but at the same time you're attention whoring it out to the world so they can see what a good, caring person you are.

Personal is personal.

Norwegian Squirrel:

That depends on how good you are at drawing and if you can reach the places you want to draw on.

But ... pretty much this, yes.

Treat tattoos like cars, shoes, hair extensions, etc. New is good. Novelty always wears off.
