It's like, those things are forever. You better make sure that in 20 years that girlfriend you got matching tattoos with is still with you. Otherwise your wife will wonder who Jackie is!

Don't get peoples' names tattooed on you unless they're blood family. Pretty basic rule :|

Yeah, just don't get dumb tattoos and this isn't an issue. More generally, get tattoos for yourself, not for other people.

Most tattoo people I've met aren't too bright, but highly impulsive. They don't think things when it comes to their bodies.

Tattoos are a dumb concept to me because it's like wearing something every day for the rest of your life. Like if you had a bracelet or something and you were forced to wear it forever whether you want to that day or not.

read about how a voodoo practitioner advised against tattoos because its similar to rituals that are done where blood is shed and how the tattoo artist can devise whatever they want if they are into the whole spiritual arts thing.

Funny. My current girlfriends name is Jackie.

And what a weird example to use. No sensible person gets matching tattoos with anyone they arent bonded to in blood. Brothers or sisters I could understand.

And it all depends on what you get and if you actually care what anyone else thinks, which I dont. But all my tattoos stick with certain themes. Animals and nature. So theyre pretty much timeless.

I dunno. Certain concepts and ideas Ive had have definitely changed.

Even mundane things like my favorite animal.

I feel like only things related to your children or an already deceased loved ones can truly stand the test of time.

Thats why i dont have tattoos. Im way too indecisive and I would end up regretting whatever I get. However, most people who get tattoos are totally fine with whatever choice they make. Tattoos are intended to be permanent. Clothes arent. Lord forbid some people know what they want. Its not a dumb concept. Being closed minded about something just because you wouldnt do it is a dumb concept.

It's a reflection of who you were, what your experiences have been, a snapshot of your values or your tastes at a time in your life. Maybe those have changed since then, but they still remain a part of who you developed from.

Tattoos are just a really big risk.

A great tattoo is amazing and works really well, but most tattoos are just trash that make the person look worse. Plus, you can't really trust people that have tattoos.

Yeah. Now not getting a tattoo is the new "act of rebellion."

Some can be really tasteful or meaningful (like a tribute to a family member or something), but most of the time they just come off like a tacky bumper sticker. There's nothing I can think of getting tattoo'd where I'm not going to think "Well, that was fucking stupid" in 5-10 years. That's why I've never gotten one.

I notice a lot of people getting song lyrics on their forearm and shit and it's like "Are you even going to remember that song in a few years?" Lol.

Also a lot of (admittedly, mainly women) getting music notes, animal paws, butterflies, etc.. kind of in the area behind their ears. Just looks like cheap 90's clip art.

It depends.

For example I have a lot of prejudice against people with what I call dumb tattoos.
You know, the generic ones they get just because they wanted something but didn't know what.

I for one wouldn't mind having a tattoo if I found something I really like.

But certainly not on my arms. Who knows what kind of job I'll get some day.

This (along with lack of money) was a consideration of mine 5 years ago when I had some tattoo ideas but never went through with them.

Two months ago I realized I still love the ideas I had back then, I have the money, and I don't give a damn what other people might think one way or the other because I'm getting tattoos for me, not them. So I got my first, and I can't wait to get some more (when my schedule allows).

A nice piece of art is a great way to think of it. Unless you're picking something out of a book, you're commissioning a custom piece of art for yourself, but you're gonna wear it instead of hang it on a wall.

I'm sure the pain varies by body part, but having recently gotten my first, it wasn't bad at all. And it's easily endured when it's for something you really want.

I also don't have a tightknit family so I probably wouldn't (though I considered getting a tattoo in honor of my father since we were close).

As has been said, most people who are into ink arent just getting whatever tattooed onto them.

Most will tell you that tattoos need to have meaning. Because then it doesnt matter if you have it forever because that meaning will be with you forever as well anyway.

All my tattoos are as relevant to me now as they will be when im 90, despite being 7-9 years old at this point.

For me- once its on my body, its a part of me. I am used to it, like a scar or a mole. Maybe I have some shitty tattoos or a quote that was relevant to me at the time, so what I think about when I look at them is where I was at that point in my life emotionally and physically, what was going on that made me want it. Its a memory, like someone said a snapshot. I dont dwell on wow thats so bad; if I want to fix it, I get it fixed. If it doesnt bother me, I dont care if other people dont like them. These are memorials of decisions Ive made, the person I was and ultimately now am, that is as much a part of me than anything else. No ragrets.

No tattoos on me and probably never will be. Nothing against them, though. Although to me it seems kind of pointless because most of the time they are covered up.

They feel so amazing to get and it looks wonderful when you see the ink setting into your skin.

Ive always wanted to get the Brand of Sacrifice from Berserk on my neck. Easy enough to cover if need be, pretty small, and the story overall has a lot of meaning to me.

Havent bit the bullet on it yet, but would like to soon.

I dont have anything against tats, but I do think they should be something important or meaningful to the individual.

Some people would! I know people who have tattood freckles or moles. Youd pay to have it because its beautiful and makes you happy until it does fade/stretch. Very many dont, by the way. Depends on where you get it and how you take care of it. There is some amount of fading but it shouldnt be enough to not be able to distinguish the picture. If its not something you see yourself wanting to do, thats fine, but plenty of people love them.

Being against tattoos because some people are impulsive or thoughtless when they get inked makes about as much sense as being against clothes because some people have no taste in fashion.

Yeah, of course it's important to be sure of what you want, and to be sure you'll always want it. It took me months to choose my first design.

I mean sure if you don't know anyone with tattoos or live in a real small town you'll probably have this opinion. Doesn't mean it's even close to true though.
