I know this is gonna upset some people but...

.........

 

.....I'll ummmm...... give you a cookie?

 

Ahhhhh, I never thought of it like that....I learned something new! Hooray for new perspectives Big thanx!

 

ThePsilocybeVibe - no offence but the tats on your arm are definately not for yourself, I mean when you look at them yourself they're upside down!!!
That's why my hubby's initial on my arm is facing me - it is for meeeee! The amount of people who told me it's the wrong way round

 

not bloody likey. anytime someone asks me about mine, i get annoyed... sure ill explain it, but only to shut ppl up..... i feel, if you dont get it, then i shouldnt explain it to you.. yes im pretty jaded... but still..

 

LOL! every1 says that pizza looks good haha! good im making people crave it!

but anyways, yes, well people get tats for different reasons. so, ya know, of course everyone has a diff opinon about it...its not like i know all the reasons why people do it haha. p.s - pscilcybevibe(man thats hard to spell) - what do your tattos say? i love tattos on the upsdie down of yer arm! i have one too but its facing me..only cuz i wanted to read it. but who kares if u get it the other way, u want other people to read it 2, dontcha? i cant wait 2 post a pic of mine..its still kinda healing and like peely and gross so im waiting haha even tho i REALLY want to!

 

Yeah...I KNOW my tattoos arent just for me...Thats why i had them put on so others can read it...I know what they say so just a glimpse of them fulfills their "purpose" to me, which is to remind myself and others that life is full of bullshit but through it all, we should strive to live the right way, no matter what ur definition of "right" is...Im glad to show my tattoos cause they're great icebreakers...It opens people up to conversations not only about tattoos, but about our lives and our world...I can never imagine getting "annoyed" that someone appreciates the art on my skin...If ur so easily annoyed by someone genuinely interested in u and ur personal expression, then that seems to be a waste of fine visual art. Tattoos arent ALL about "meaning" or symbology...They can also be about community in a sense. People have their own reasons for getting them. Yes, mine are symbolic. But I also think its great to have others admiring them. I find it gratifying in a way. Vanity? Maybe....But I'm human...It's a part of EVERYBODY...in one capacity or another...So, I dont mean to get people all worked up over it......It's all goooood

 

Oh, and DejaVoo (urs is easy to spell ), the tattoo on my left arm says "Honor" and the one on my right says "Sorrow"......They serve to remind me that yeah, life is full of sadness and pain...nobody can escape it. It's how u deal with it that determines who you are. Do u crawl in a hole and die or do u fight back with all u got....Honor is very important...I think we should all strive for it. I never make a promise. Those that know me know that my word is set in stone. If i say yes, i mean it. When i say no, i mean it and i will back my words with action. No promise is ever needed. Thats honor (to me...) Also, i think it just looks awesome.


Can wait to see ur new tattoo...Im sure it looks great Lemme know when they're posted. Stay cool out there

 

I want to get a tattoo but i will only get one that really suits me. I have gotten a few temp tattoos, found a couple I like but still waiting for the one I fall in love with

 

It's good to wait on it till u just KNOW whats goin on ur skin...Its there with u for life...

 

I got my tattoo because I really wanted one under my arm, or wrist, because it's so stark looking on my white skin, people always think it's fake. I just think tattoos are awesome, but not all people do think that way and give you negative attention. Also some people get some really stupid tattoos. but I actually go insane from the daily questions "did it hurt?'' "is that real?" "what's on your arm?" did I mention "did it hurt?" AHHHH leave me alone!!!

 

I really like that Midnight! Simple but not!

 

LoL midnight....I'd ask but then I KNOW the wrist area hurts....Anyone that says it doesnt is lying haha....But yeah I agree, there is some negative attention from those that still feel tattooing so taboo...I get the comment from folks all the time "Are u a GANGBANGER?" haha...Now I grew up among hundreds of different street gangs so I myself know the difference between gangsta tattoos and the rest...It ALMOST bugs me that I have to explain it to people but hey...Im not opposed to spittin' knowledge if it'll help people.


I like that tattoo by the way....It's interesting

 

Psilocybevibe.. I really like your tattoo.. takes guts to get a tattoo like that.. shows character!

 

Well hey thank u haha That just made my night

 

its funny because ya know what.. my tats are pretty much always hidden .. I dont show them off..

 

Awww...Thats probably a shame...What u got??? Unless they're real private, in which case, ill just say that im sure they're awesome lol

 

one is on my upper back (my hair is always down so it covers it)
one is on my ancle (i only wear pants, too self consious to wear anything shorter in public)

 

Sounds good
