Next tattoo. You pick.

Radical Edward · #1 08-16-2010, 01:45 PM

I have a new job, a new life, a happier outlook on everything. It's time for a new tattoo... but there's so much to pick from. I have narrowed it down to 4. So. .. You pick.
Number 1:

In meh cleavage.

Number 2:

Wherever. Probably my arm, somewhere.

Number 3:

Wherever. Haven't decided yet.

Number 4:

So... opinions?????

Sorry the top one is so big. Lol.

I think you'll regret any of these in a few years. The first one is kind of cool, but not in your cleavage.

Is the first one also a band logo? I think band logos are generally a bad idea as life is a long time and musical tastes change.

Take the money you are going to spend on the tattoo, spend $2 on a black sharpie, put the rest away for your kids college.

bassteban · #4 08-16-2010, 01:59 PM

I think you should get one that says *awsom*
Like this:
AWSOM

This is your conscience speaking....

Don't you have more important things to do with that money rather than getting a tat?

bongomania · #6 08-16-2010, 02:01 PM

Band logos are a terrible idea unless you are an old-skool punk rocker, in which case a Black Flag logo and a Misfits face are de rigueur.

And re: cleavage... I love me some tattoos, and I love me some cleavage, but I have to say 9 out of 10 cleavage tattoos I check out really detract from the looks overall. There was a waitress just a couple days ago who had a slammin' body and cute face, but this big crude solid-black 4" tall fleur-de-lis in her cleavage, and it was about as attractive there as a huge hairy mole would have been on her nose.

But letting people to decide for you what ink to have permanently stuck on your skin is very important, no?

Some people's kids, I tell ya. Or is it some people with kids?

Radical Edward · #8 08-16-2010, 02:03 PM

Lol. You guys are so typical. I already have a band tattoo and I really don't care how It'll look when I'm 70, because I'll be the most badass 70 year old around. LOL.
Also, no I don't have anything better to be spending it on, at the moment. Life's improved a lot since you've all last heard from me.
Vote is you'd like. Don't if you don't wanna.
And the top one is from an anime. Full Metal Alchemist.
Like this:

And to clarify, I plan on getting all of these, but I'm trying to decide which I should get first.

Cleavage tattoos are great.....if you only want minimum wage jobs.

Because you show off your cleavage a lot? I don't.

elgecko · #11 08-16-2010, 02:12 PM

No tats on cleavage or anywhere on the chestal area. I love tats on chicks, but the chest should be a no-tat zone!

It's not 70 that you have to worry about. When you're 70, nobody cares--seriously.

It's 40 that you have to worry about. When you're 40, and you're probably raising a kid or two by yourself, and can't get a job other than waitressing or hair styling, that's when tattoos of your youth can bite you in the ass, badly.

hover · #13 08-16-2010, 02:16 PM

Why don't you put the money away for your child's future, or for heaven forbid a rainy day where you just might need it. You're being short-sighted.

You say we're typical. I disagree. I say we're sensible.

knumbskull · #14 08-16-2010, 02:25 PM

get whatever tattoo you want, band or otherwise, but i'd steer clear of chest/neck area that can't be covered by an open-necked shirt.

i was really into tattoos in my late teens/early 20s, always thought neck tattoos were kind of cool. Now, in my 30s, i'm VERY glad I didn't get one.

I don't like what you're implying about my personal life. I don't think any of us will like any of our tattoos at that age, but I'm going to live my life how I'd like and the way that makes me happy now. Live for today.
I'd appreciate it if you'd keep your negative opinions to yourself. If every time I post a thread on here or comment it just turns into an attack on me, then I have no reason to be here at all. I'd appreciate some respect once and a while, or at the very least some common courtesy and have my questions actually answered, the same as most people get on here at least once and a while.
I'm not the psychopath who hated her life that I was, and I'm not going to be treated like it here or anywhere else, anymore.
If you don't like what I say or do on here, then don't comment or report it if you feel you have to. I don't care. IF you feel you have any actual input on what the thread is about, then I'd love to hear it. If I can't get that, then there's no reason to be here.
This is to everyone on here, really. Not just you. I'm pretty tired of it all.

Hey, that's fine. But print out a copy of my post, and your response, and keep that page somewhere safe. Open it and read it again when you're 40.

CrispyDelicious · #18 08-16-2010, 02:32 PM

On second thought I don't need another infraction.

ugly_bassplayer · #19 08-16-2010, 02:32 PM

You expected what from a tattoo thread on TB.

They always end up being 99% against tattoos, from people who don't have any.

I have over 60 hours of work done on (full sleeve, full back piece full chest piece) , love tattoos, but I avoid these threads, it's like talking to a wall.

By the way IMO your designs are let's say....not very good.

That's quite alright. I know and am aware of the consequences of my actions. I'm not daft.. but you only live once, and I spent too many years doing as I was told, and trying to make everyone happy, and doing "the right thing" all the time, and it ended up with me being horribly miserable. I'm done with all of that, and I'll do what makes me happy, today, tomorrow, and the next day. Every day. I've had enough regrets doing what I thought was the responsible thing to do, or the right thing, and if I'm going to have regrets it's going to be the regrets of a past where I was happy.. and I don't think I'll mind too much, when I think of how happy it made me today.

And Crispy, maybe I DID do all of that before... but I was in a bad place and reaching out to the only place where I could speak without my controlling boyfriend noticing. Now things are different, and I'm really trying to be respectful of people, and more aware of my actions and opinions here and elsewhere. I have people elsewhere now to talk to about my problems, and most of my problems have now been resolved. I'm sorry I tried to get out my emotions here before. You're right. It wasn't the place to do it.
