Is it just me or does everyone have a tattoo these days?

I don't have any...but I do like well done tattoos though. I feel like i'm in the minority now.
 
I don't have any tatoos either. If by chance I was to get one I would want something rather small and subtle and it would need to have some kind of sentimental meaning.
 
I've been into lots of tattoo parlors, mostly in my youth, and in varying states of inebriation...and never did find anything I wanted permanently inked on me.
 
yeah it would have to be mind-blowing.

i feel like i'm using a lot of hypens lately...freaking me out.
 
There are only two things more contagious than aids, snitching and tattoos. They are of course synonymous with eachother.
 
I don't have any and don't plan to. The reason you see more people with them is that there is much less stigma associated with them than in the past. I do not buy the 'linked to stupidity' aspect. I know plenty of smart people with tattoos. It is just another form of self expression. I will say that what you get and where could say something about your intelligence.

People say one thing - employers say another.

You don't see any on people's face that work anywhere but a fast food restaurant. Majority that have employment with a salary past 25k are at least smart enough to put them on their arm or something so they can cover them with a dress shirt.

Tattoos are for dumb people.

Dumb people are the majority. The dumb people maybe didn't know they were supposed to have more tattoos. But they are now slowly catching up. That's why you see more people with tattoos.

Fuck, but I hate those kinds of "studies." Someone paid them money and the idiot press are publishing the results like we really learned something here.

News at 11: dumb people do dumb shit. Dumb people have more kids. Dumb people elect dumb presidents. Dumb people are breeding and voting this country into a very bad place both politically and culturally. It's just dumb. Did I mention how dumb it is?

Sure. But you can't always tell who is dumb, just by looking at their faces.
But tattoos make life easier.
We can now often see straight away who are the dumbasses.

Ever seen this website ?

I can't browse through it for more than a few minutes. It never happens to me with other stuff. But these pictures will make me nauseous within a few pages of pictures. Just the thought of how stupid people are, and what they are doing to themselves is too much to bear.
 
<-- does not have any tattoos too.

Although I do have a piece of a lead tip from a pencil in my palm that I jammed into it when I was like 10 years old.
 
I refuse to smear my perfect canvas 😀

However, my daughter is 21 and...against my wishes...got covered in the damned things. She has them all over legs, arms, and chest. It's to the point where she's going to regret her choices 10 years from now and all I'll be able to say is "I told you so!"

My wife is getting them too. She had one in a...well..."intimate" place from when she was 18. She's since had a large one put on her back shoulder and thinking of getting another one.

The madness has to stop!
 
No, it's not just you.

You could draw it and bring it in and have them ink it on you.

Yep, I know smart people with tattoos, and dumb people with tattoos. Doesn't seem to be any different than the regular spread of smart/dumb people.

I could never do a tattoo, I have too much ADD...I would want to change it to a new design every week lol.

The one exception is that I would like a ring tattoo. A coworker at my last job got one when he got married...no ring to wear or have to remove when working with shop tools.

I think I would have Brad Pitt's face tattooed on mine. That would work, right?
