They  can be nice. Not as often as the, uh...  canvas thinks they are.

Tattoos are a useful marker, especially on women. The more there are, the more cluster B she's likely to have.
 
People who get those awful tattoos with lettering, quotes and sayings. You can't even read the shit half of the time when someone isn't moving. It just meshes together and whatever you believe, may not be what you want to put on your body because your philosophy could change.

It's about as retarded as buying a quoted shirt from wal-mart.
 
They are great because it instantly communicates "bad decision maker". You can safely skip over these people and be better off for it.
 
I’ll be real dawg, as time goes on I dislike tats more and more. One or two nice ones, reasonable ones, I’m fine with it but bro I know way too many people who look like they were assaulted by a kid with a sticker book.
Lowkenuinely, grandma was right tattoos are just gay and trashy. Especially when you’re a dumb twenty-something year old who knows the hours of your local weed shop by heart, you look fucking retarded.

I used to think tattoos were cool but over time I realized it is just another gay artist industry. Tattoos are not a sign of anything anymore but being a self righteous hipster with too much money. Just more peacocking faggotry. I have a tattoo and in reality I barely notice it and since everyone has them. No one cares and this shit probably causes cancer. So over rated 2/10 wouldn't recommend.
 
I subscribe to the "tattoos should have a specific meaning" philosophy, and I have two that have served me well. One is my prisoner number from when I was locked up. I tattooed it myself as a reminder to never get locked up again, and it's worked so far. The other is my wedding band (we got finger tattoos instead of rings), and it's worked well to keep us together thus far - coming up on our 17th anniversary in a week.

IANAL. YMMV.
 
I don't like the way tattoos look. I also don't expect this fact to affect anybody's decision to get one even a little bit.

(On another note, it's wild that apparently "ink bad" is one of the things you have to come to The Forum Where They Use The Bad Words to say.)
 
I know dude who is really big tattoo guy.
All I can say is: his tatoos didn't age well.
So I have no desire to get one.
I have seen some cool ones , but there were plenty of awful ones as well.
Ultimately everyone has to make decision to get/not get tatoo for themselves.
 
I hate tattoos. Seeing them on women is an instant no for me. Not for moralfag reasons, I just find it incredibly ugly

When it's bad, it's really bad. When it's really good, it's kinda cool. I like the history and the old artwork. I wouldn't get one myself because everyone has them now which makes them lame. Also I'm tired of women getting the brunt of the tattoo hate when every dude I know has the absolute worst cringy nonsense all up and down their arms. Dylan with a confederate flag John Deere logo next to the viking larp tat next to the names of his two bastard children he doesn't spend time with.....

It looks retarded on men, but it's even worse on women
 
I like the ones that couples get which symbolically pronounce their love in some way, because if they work out for life, it's a beautiful commitment, and if they don't, LOL you have the name "Brandon" printed on your body forever. Chump
 
I'm 65, retired military, been all over the world, and never got a tattoo. Just never saw any reason to put a symbol or graffiti on my body as a symbol of an experience or a significant event in my life. I have souvenirs, pictures, scars, awards, etc. for that.

If someone wants to get a tattoo, it's their body, their choice. I do find it kind of ironic that I'm unique *because* I don't have any tattoos.

My feeling on people who get tattoos depends on the person and the tattoo. I do find it kind of sad that you can tell when a woman was a certain age by which tattoos she has and where. I also have never seen a woman of any age with a tattoo whom I didn't think would look better without it.

Same thing with dudes. Yeah man, you're really unique and edgy with your Asian character/tribal tattoo/barbed wire tattooed around your bicep. 🙄
 
Tattoos all look like amorphous scribbles from further than 6 feet away (and that's being generous) unless they're like huge back pieces. Even then the details will be lost. They're not horrible if the image plays into the person/location's contours and is either really easy to tell what it is, or is too small to notice. There's nothing special or unique about getting tattoos anymore. It's rarer to find someone with clean skin.
 
As childish as it sounds, I only really like temporary tattoos. I never got the idea of putting ink on and going with it for life. What if you just want to look cool for a few days?

If they sold cheap "adult" ones near where I live, I'd probably get them.

So what you're saying is you would get temporary tattoos to lure in women that like bad boys, then after you had sex, clean them off? Pretty genius tbh. Might as well go for the whole bad boy package with ripped jeans, wife beater shirt, leather biker jacket, beard, pirate hat, and a motorcycle.
 
I would not like them on me, they'll never stain my skin.

Some people have cool tattoos (probably <1% of the population, someone I know has good ones), but most are ugly even when drawn properly, like scribbles someone decided to have on their bodies for the rest of their life. It's just boring, you really want a shitty phoenix on your back forever? Alright then.

Tattooing text is equally as retarded, I call that like a "shopping list" or the Alzheimer's tattoo, where you're putting a sentence on you because you'll foregt about it, so you need a reminder. Completely nonsensical in my view; teachings, ideas, etc that I go or agree with are part of who am I psychologically, I don't need a "note" for me to read & remember, or display to others. I see it as a walking ad.

The best is when people mark themselves with symbols they don't even know, like kanjis, when they have nothing to do with that culture or don't even know the language. It's fine, but I see it as lame.

One of my old coworkers had her daughter's face tattooed on her, which was OK, but she also had like a poem and other nonsense all around her arms, which frankly, looked cheap.
