when i will be getting a tattoo, i will be getting one that has a meaning and is descriptive. i don't like tattoos just for the sake of having permanent body paint. tattoos for me symbolize a story or a condition imposed on a person; much like the way that you in russian prisons had your entire story of your life tattoo'd on yourself.

i'm still working on the design for mine for when the time comes.

If well done and concientiously designed, yes, tattoos are good.


I have a problem with wussy, meaningles tattoos like the stars emo kids love getting on their wrists or their feet. Making any permanent mark on your body with so little thought to it's relevance is stupid, most of these people will wish they never had them done by the time they're 30.

Wait.... why does it say poll if it's not really a poll.
The idea of tattoos are cool, its body art. But in practice I would never get one.

I have a huge dislike for tats.

Then again, that's just me being me. I already feel REALLY uncomfortable if someone even draws a tiny dot on my hand with a pen. I immediatly try to get it off as soon as I can.

What do you think? pretty cool? or really dorky?

I think its not a great a idea to do this unless you're incredibly sure.
I've seen a good many people with triforce tattoos. I also saw a guy with an entire Nintendo-themed sleeve, but I can't recommend it highly.

They can be very cool. But I would never get one because
A I wouldn't trust anyone to do it, one simple mistake and your whole piece can be ruined,
B as I get older, so does the tattoo,
C I don't like the fact that it is permament,
D I probably couldn't decide on the design and position anyway (see C.)

got 2 planned, one for my back and one for my upperarm, but im short on cash and im about to start working out 5 times a week and a diet and stuff, so gonna wait until i've gotten a little better body.

I dont really think they are "cool", but they look good, and if they are something that mean alot to you as a person, then go for it, i know i will.

Dude, that seems like complete over kill with the whole arm in Nintendo. and he probably plays Xbox (joking) Maybe not somehting that big but more like something small like the Half-Life lambda complex symbol that be neat.

Personally they're my #1 dating deal-breaker. I tend to agree with the Bible (Lev 19:28) when it comes to tattooing and body modification.

I'll have to agree with Jack Dee on this one.
"Chinese letters, if you're not Chinese - why? For all you know it could say 'Choose one of the tatoos below."

Tattoos are only cool if they have some meaning behind them and if the person with the tattoo knows the meaning.

I was hoping for the visual graph poll.

Tattoos can be incredibly cool, if done right.

I'd like a tattoo one day, but I'm afraid I don't trust people to let them do one on me. I'd have to go to Miami to let the guys at Miami Ink. do it x)
It would be a wolf tattoo, but I'm not sure on the position. Maybe back shoulder, chest or upper arm.

Some people may see them as a little bit common but I love tribal tattoos. I've been meaning to get a tribal sleeve of my friends incredibly intricate design for a while now but I never seem to have the cash. I also think tattoos are bloody sexy on women as well (if they're the right kind of course).
