Poll: Do you find Tattoos to be cool?

[jacobschndr]

I know theres a whole list of things to consider before getting a tattoo, like what is it of, where on your body is it going,etc. But whats your general thought about tattoos? I thinking about getting one. So I thought I'd ask.

 

[stubbmann]

Yes. Yes I do.

 

[Estel_22]

Got two, planning more. Most of my friends back home are immersed in tattoo culture (One of whom is actually a tattoo artist in training...) So short answer: yes. Just think long and hard about what your gonna have done. Laser removals can get expensive...

I think as long as your getting it for yourself and not just to be trendy its fine. Also, make sure you research the place you get it done. Tattoos are basically forever so dont cut corners when choosing where to get it.

 

[anguaji]

i'd love one - i think 2009 is finally the year that i decide on a design and go for it! :]

 

[Reaperman Wompa]

Tattoo's on guys are badass, depending on girls can be really good or bad. Seriously hate tramp stamps.

 

[Xpwn3ntial]

They're fine if you can live with them.

and painful.

god yes... but i've never been able to decide what...

 

[Xpwn3ntial]

I'd probably get a curse in Latin or something on my arm.

 

[Woundingisfun]

I think they are generally stylish, but it depends what it's a picture of and where on your body it's located.

 

[Varchld]

They can be really awesome, but usually I find people get something that is pretty lame or just doesn't work.

 

[Meado]

I wouldn't mind a tattoo, as long as it's something simple. When I see people with their arms done up like the Sistine chapel I wonder what kind of mentality you need to pay someone to stab you for a few hours to get something that'll look like crap when you start to wrinkle.

 

[PureChaos]

depends what it's a tattoo of and where it is. those people who have tattoos all over, no, but a symbol of something on a shoulder is good. i had a dream once that i had a ladder tattooed on my arm once.

 

[JakalMc]

Eh, it depends. The people that treat themselves like walking canvases and feel the need to cover every inch if their body in ink... I don't find them cool. I find it just a wee bit excessive.

A symbol or nice pattern somewhere can be pretty awesome. It depends what it is though.

 

[Rhayn]

I wouldn't really use the word cool to describe it, but yes, I do like tattoos. Most likely will get one this year, but my cynical part tells me the tattoo-artists in this little city are not up to the task...

 

[Silver]

I like tattoos in the same way I like mohawks, bald heads, huge beards and lots of spikes on your clothes.

That is, I wouldn't wear it myself, but it (can) looks really cool on "supporting characters". RL supporting characters, that is.

 

[Jursa]

yes and I intend to get one sometime in the near future.

 

[Kikosemmek]

Well, depends on the Tattoo. I wouldn't say that all paintings are pretty, in the same vein.

Sometimes it's a work of art, and sometimes a waste of pretty skin.

 

[Danny Ocean]

I like them, but I tend to get a henna tattoo on holidays rather than a proper one. I wouldn't get a proper one until I've finished growing. Do tattoos break up if the person grows?
