Title: Large tattoos and finger and neck tattoos, a tool for the overcompensator?
Post by: Lord Chronos on December 10, 2014, 12:46:33 AM
Anybody here who has felt the need to cover at least 20% of their body in hideous ink with the past couple of years, so that they can deem themselves as being fashionable?

Are you one of those people (retards) who have tattoos on your fingers or neck?

I would like to know how you feel after you got a load of crap scribbled all over you skin, do you feel more manly or trendy by doing this.

This question is not aimed at those who had tattoos done 5-10 years ago when it was not popular or a fashionable trend like it is today.

Everybody thinks I'm judgmental when I say they're stupid, but they can never defend themselves in a logical conversation about them. They talk about art, but 99% of them look like shit.

i always laugh at the people with face or neck tattoos or ridiculous piercings who complain when they cant find a job  :D

i have 3 tattoos and a piercing in each ear. tattoos can be covered up, and piercings come out when needed. its stupid to get tatoos where they cant be hidden or those stupid plugs in your ears.

The one about them being art makes me laugh.  I've heard this one a lot too: It's "a personal expression/statement".  People that get tats have various forms/levels of mental illness.

There is this whole push in this society of "DON'T JUDGE." You see these two words plastered all over social media sites. Whenever people do something stupid, they always say, "DONT JUDGE." Its by far the most annoying catch phrase.

from urban dictionary

Possibly the most obnoxious thing you could say when someone is trying to figure out what kind of person you are or sneers at you.
IT'S IMPOSSIBLE NOT TO JUDGE SOMEONE, THAT'S HOW WE DISTINGUISH FRIEND FROM FOE!
No matter what, people are going to judge you; because you dress in all black and like death or because you watch Star Trek and go to Sakura Con - DEAL WITH IT.

It's the worst when it's on your MySpace profiles.

Actually, no, it's worse when they say "you have no right to judge me." Because everyone has a right to their own thoughts, so stop being self-absorbed and obsessed with pretending not caring about your so-called "haters," people who don't like you, not because they're jealous, but maybe because you may not a likable person, maybe?

A lot of tattoo haters on here.  ;D I started getting inked 22 years ago, before it was popular. I am probably 60-70% covered. I know it is not for everyone but believe it or not it is a lifestyle. Just like fitness or bodybuilding lifestyle. I go to tattoo conventions and compete (actually have several trophies), and when I travel which I do quite often I check out the local tattoo shops. I don't judge anyone for any body modifications but I would never ink my face. Just a bit too hardcore for me.
To each their own on whatever you want to do as long as it doesn't affect me or my family.

Very cool way to get it done. I was at Hell City Tattoo Convention in Columbus Ohio last spring and there was a traditional Japanese tattoo artist. He was tattooing this guy by tapping a rod with 3-4 metal points. The guy getting it done was in soooooooooo much pain. I have never had it done that way but I heard it is the worst pain.

It's more like a counter culture than a lifestyle.  Neck/facial tattoos and extreme piercings are signs of mental illness.  People who have these better have their own business because most employers will not hire them.

It looks kinda nice but unfortunately the general masses have sensed it lends "credibility" so the copycat behavior destroyed its cool.
Thanks Nobama.  >:(

I am about as mentally ill as it gets.  ;D Honestly, I am a corporate manager for a Fortune 500 Company. I do have visable tattoos including my hands and a couple on my fingers. I also have one on my back that carries up my neck. I was promoted to this position with that ink. I work my ass off and I am good at what I do. So your statement about employers is not always the case. But to your point, I doubt I would be in this position with a Tyson or Priest face tattoo.

The trend is lame.

Too many tats is unsightly.

Tats on the face and up the neck are indeed signs of mental illness.

That is all.

to get a job with tatoos all over your body you need to have a kick ass resume or like gym rat said,be really good at what u do or else your fucked,cause alot of employers do discriminate cause of that.when i had real long hair after i got out of the joint i couldnt get a good job anywhere,i was able to get offers for 7 dollar an hour shit jobs breaking my back ofcoarse,but im talking about good jobs with great benefits and pay was a different story.

It is a shame that they don't give a person a chance to prove themselves. I understand if someone has a long record of theft or had a history of killing his boss.

I have a logistics component to my business, forklift and truck drivers, they are all covered in ink, even have one get f@#$%d on his shaven head, and another with full face tatts, wouldnt have them in direct customer service, but they are good guys who I value, they also shy away from the injury claims which haunt the industry, i would rather have the odd looking bunch than the other claim happy scabs I see around .
