When I was 16 I rode a bike ( https://pic8.co/sh/mgoKkt.jpg ) to houston for a johhny winter concert. And on the way got not one but two tats. Now back then you pretty much picked something off the walls. Alot has happened since then ( and alot of bikes ) but thats another story. Tats have come along way. My arms are spotty with no real plan, But after everything evolved my legs and back are more coherently done with a plan.

My only regret is the art has evolved so much I just wish my arms were done the same way. Im in my 60's and regret nothing.

I don't hate them or think people regret them. I just think 99% of them look really gay. I understand men getting tattoos related to their group, military tattoos, bike clubs, tradesmen, etc. That's a long-standing tradition.

But every toolbag getting his favorite catchphrase or sportsball logo scribbled on him is super gay. I know a guy with a huge Chevy logo tattooed on his chest and it's hilariously stupid especially because he's a Ford guy now. And tattoos on a woman are gross.

or the methed out coloring book lines because they had to get something, then their entire body ends up covered like that with nothing finished or any direction

Well most writing will blur as they get older, which sucks twice. But the art has come a very long way.

cool bike. Tats fucking suck. sorry. I see middle aged women in Florida with huge tats on their thighs. They look like gangrenous wounds.

I hate tattoos because they are an example of people mindlessly following along to imitate other people, so they won't be left out or left behind. It's the same mindset that makes them get the Covid vax. It disgusts me to watch people behave like robots.

60 years ago everyone was racist. Now everyone is tolerant. But people were racist forever. That means that all the tolerant people are just empty skulls walking around looking to be filled up by whatever horse shit the media wants to stick in their heads

It's been a thing for thousands of years. You came way late to the game.

You've permanently marked yourself as belonging to a certain demographic. Until everyone has tattoos that's where you'll stay.

No surprise tattoofags push it on others just like any other mental illness.

Bleeding edge degeneracy. Should you be celebrated or congratulated for this?

[–] [deleted] • 0 pt

Nope. Its a personal choice. It has just got super popular now and Im not sure why.

It's more women than men who regret them.

I have one and am seriously considering having it removed because i now hate it.

Most people got tats that could be covered if they needed to for work and not look trashy. Today morons tattoo stupid gang shit on thier faces to look cool. These are the morons who need reprogramming.

I worked with a nigger a few years back and I overheard them talking about face tattoos. One nigger said to the other nigger it was a good idea everyones doing it. So I chimed it that indeed it was cool you should totally tattoo your stupid face you stupid fucking nigger. I always wondered if he did it. I’d like to think he did. I’d like to think he tattooed stupid right under his eye

[–] [deleted] • 0 pt

Yeah, I have always informed people to not just get one, you will regret it.

The only thing you’ll regret more than tattoos is not sending me your dick pics, so get on with it.

Now I understand the hate for you here, thanks for clearing that up.

your tatts most likely look much better than the scratcher art i see on most these kids running around today. the complaint is that tattoos have fallen into utter degeneracy

I'm 40, most people with ink were military, gangs, or spent time in prison when i was a kid. Very few people randomly got ink like you did when i was young. There was people that did go get ink but they also spent a year talking to artists several hours away talking on the phone and mailing ideas and work back and forth. Then taking a week off to go to the artists shop and the work was ussually well done.

Wasn't until i was 18 that we finally got a shop 1.5 hours away, I've never gotten any ink granted i wanted to. I ended up coming across a white guy with all kinds of gang ink. He spent time in prison and talked about how he regretted a lot of what he got, he didnt tell any of us not to get inked but encouraged spending a year considering designs, even having it drawn on you in sharpie or other paints. you still want it after that then go for it.

I knew the guy for a number of year s and respected him, i took his advice. theres stuff i'd have gotten after a year but just never had the time or money was an issue.

The stuff i see today and people running around with it is all degenerate.

Its really how its put together. To say its all degenerate is judgemental. And as far as chicks with tats, some are bad and some not so much. It surprises me here how the fuck you all are so intolerant of things that dont really matter. Ink on skin is personal, its not for you.

It's trashy when it's highly visible and doesn't have some sort of personal significance to the person itself, akin to scribbling on yourself.

[–] [deleted] • 0 pt

This just proves my point. A bunch of intolerant assholes here. Yall are so self important and opinionated, should I bow down? Fuck you.

I regret not having a street bike with a kick starter.
