Have one I got at 18......don't regret it but never been proud of it or anything. I forget I have it until someone asks about it...gf has two which I'm not a fan of but I manage to block them out and cant be a hypocrite and care too much.

It's just as I've always said.

My favorite part about tattoo culture is the cognitive dissonance people have with their mediocre/terrible ink.

They spent so much, and thought about it so much, and get so emotionally involved in the process. They convince themselves it has such a deep meaning, and that it'll change their life and how people perceive them. Then they get the ink, and stumble on threads like this a few years later. Their experiences come rushing back to them -- people reacting to their tattoos, not really caring. They sense the disingenuous undertones of people's reactions.

Rather than come to terms with how terrible and cringy their ink is, they double down and defend it. It's hilarious

I don't judge other people for doing what they want. (inb4 strong username)

Having said that, it's such a new mainstream thing now. Takes away from the appeal.

Or they just get a tattoo of things that they like that have no 'deep meaning' and laugh how much people that don't have tattoos care. Let it go OP, your argument is terrible. Who are you to come and try to justify what is right and wrong? I guarantee that having tattoos has nothing to do with getting a job or who a person is and your thread just emphasises how menial your perception is. What was your point in this thread?

Planning on getting more **** tattoos BTW, gonna look like **** when I'm 70 too.
I recently bleached my hair. I was going for a golden blonde. Came out orange. I received numerous compliments.

If you lift and people like you theyll feed you whatever horse chit they think you want to hear.

Ive met many rich piana wannabes in my time. Tribal tats, black tank, black backwards hat to hide 45 year old bald head, laid in sun every weekend tradie tan. I dont tell them they look like a walking midlife crisis. "Looking swole bro" lol

Stole my thoughts.

Not tats but tons of scars from funny, daft stuff and critical operations.

They're also for people who enjoy the artwork (if you actually hunt for an amazing artist and have them design based off your ideas) and don't give a fuk what cucks think. To each his own.

Not even sticking up for tattoos specifically, but who cares. Lifting is mainstream now, so what? Not everyone gets tatoos to be "different".

Exactly, why does a tattoo have to mean anything? I told my artist I liked dark art so come up with whatever. He came up with a "Gates to Hell" giant skull piece from my collarbone to my dick. Loved the art so I said sure, whatever lets do it.

Means absolutely chit, but looks crazy. OP cares way too much
