No offence to you guys with tats

[Bad Boy Dazza]

but from what I have seen most guys with tats are complete losers trying to look tough.  And usually unemployed.

I know that there are exceptions, like war vets with insignia, hard workers, good fellas etc but that's MOSTLY what I've experienced.

Quite the revelation there Dazza!

It's something people have thought for years, ever since the 70s

True true, it's just that I seem to be seeing so much more of these types about these days.

Back in the 80's not many common people had computers at home either, today though, everyone has.

Yeah, it may also be where I live atm.

Well, you'd be a fool to live in Silicon Valley and not have a computer these days.

I wish.

A lot of guys who get tattoos are frightened little boys who wear them like armour or a musclesuit.

They might as well say "please be frightened of my inkwork so you dont pick on me and that way I won't get my ass beaten".   This is why a lot of prison inmates get them. They think it will prevent them getting a visit from the uphill gardners in the shower.

The amount of complete fannies you see in the gym with neck and face tattoos these days is a joke. Silly little kints.  I always go out of my way to intimidate the tattood kids because I know they are shitters.

Perfect analysis.

i always thought that tats were basically for white trash kinda people, although my x-wifey did have a tat LOL!

[Donny]

I found this tattoo funny when i was 18 and got this done in London 1985... of course i was a bit wilder then. I think your entitled to your opinion but please do not think all guys are idiots with tattoos. I grew up in a working class area and yes some guys were  tattooed. It was not like today where every one has "in" tattoos and in the British Army it was common to be tattooed although they never approved of it. As i wrote on another thread i coverd one that was a naked woman on my arm. I do not regret them because they are a chapter in my life that is on my skin. I have fond memories getting this red devil with another young soldier(we were in Basic training, Woolwich London 1985). I had a few tattoos before this and my friend was never tattooed and after a few beers he said,"OK fuck it lets do it". The tattoo artist was an ex soldier and said to him , "give me your virgin arm son"..i laughed at this. remember it was not all fancy like today and was more primitive. when he did mine i said,"write Born to raise hell round it".. he said yeah.. that´s good and i never paid extra...LOL.

i'm curious donny, is it offensive to a Scot to ask him if he's a catholic or a Protestant?

[Bad Boy Dazza]

For sure Donny, I know there are good guys with tats.  

I look at the fella before the tats to assess him.

Good fella you can tell.  Loser, you can tell.

used to be...but my best friend was Catholic...never botherd me...

[Red Hook]

Now I am always chuckle openly when I see guys with barb wire or arm band tats.


it's like permanently being forced to wear something that was a fad...and everyone knows it

thanks genius

When I was younger the only ones with tattoos were bikers and some military guys. Now when I go to the beach whole families have them every group I see. Grandpa, grandma, mom, dad and all the kids. It's just not cool. It's kinda like the 50 something guy wearing an ear ring thinking he's rocking a radical look but he looks like a loser with a fag ear ring.

[Bad Boy Dazza]

thanks genius

So you fit my description, right?

[garebear]

Are you trying to be stupid?

[Kwon_2]

Why are you trying to enlighten us about the more common usage of computer and "computerized" households?

Why are you trying to dispute the fact that there are more computer-owners in this day and age than in 1985?
It is the truth, you will just have to face the facts and reality gaybear.

It is commonplace these days, whether you like it or not.

Same deal with tats, roids and Kale Greens.

[WOOO]

So you fit my description, right?

covered in ink

but have a good job, married, never been arrested

stereotypes are always wrong...

people with multiple weird piercings on the other hand...

 

[_bruce_]

Depends on the tats - I like tats that are like paintings and well done... more in the Yakuza spirit.

[Kwon_2]

Those are the pits! You know that those people are not trustworthy whatsoever!

Those kind of people are just as dreadful as the despicable console-users of the 90s.
