Tattoos use to be a sign of rebellion and toughness, what have they become? I see all sorts of people with them now, and most of the tats I see have no meaning or relevance at all. Just the other day I went into a tattoo parlor and watched as a rather dorky looking guy flipped through a poster rack full of designs until he finally told his friend he wanted a tribal armband around his nonexistent bicep. I’m all for tattoos don’t get me wrong, but that is ridicules and stupid as hell. People like him are the ones that regret it later, it doesn’t mean anything its just ink on skin no emotions. My tattoos have been designed by me for me and no one else; they are parts of the most important times in my life. To often people talk of wanting a tattoo but have no idea what they want. My suggestion, don’t even bother wasting the artists time to draw a picture from a catalogue on you that your going to regret real soon. To me tattoos make still make some people look tough, rouged and rebellious but it also makes a great deal of people look stupid and immature. I draw tribal designs for fun and have designed for friends, I will never in my life put a black blob of ink to my skin unless there is meaning and purpose to it, or I have a gun to my head. The people who get tattoos just to be “tough” are the ones I can’t stand. |

Yeah you can tell a lot about a person's personality by looking at their tattoos I think... especially about their latent creativity. | |
