Five Painful Places to Get a Tattoo

yawn, troll. We get it, you think tattooed people are low class. Of course your posts say the same thing about you. You're to thick to understand that there are people, other then "trailer trash" that get tattooed. I can admit that some serious trash walks through the door of my shop, can you admit that many other educated, sucessful people also walk through that door?

Talk about one of the most idiotic statements made so far, and there have been plenty. You obviously know jack about people with tattoos, so shut the F*** up. I doubt you can even get a date..period

Here! Here! Way to show that upper class, conservative snobbery you have about you. Cheers!

It's your body take care of it? Really? So i'm sure you don't eat fatty foods, or drink sugar saturated sodas? It is your body, do with it what you want.
As far as job interviews, it just depends on the job. As far as having tattoos "all thru" our bodies. Well I assume you mean those of us who have tattoos all OVER our bodies, and we find people who judge us ridiculous and nasty as well

First of all I have a wonderful job. I also have 2 tattoos, both of which are completely hidden unless I want them to be seen. I like how some people can throw the word fad around. All you are "trying" to do is degrade artistic expression by labeling it with a word that has negative connotation. Fads will eventually die but tattoo have been around for many, many, many years and they won't be leaving anytime soon so I hope you like the feeling of wadded up cotton in your butt crack.

You are frighteningly sheltered.

I'm 55 and female, I have two very large tattoos, I'm very financially successful due to HARD WORK in a rewarding and successful high tech career and, oh yeah, I know how to spell Starbucks. Perhaps if you had basic typing and spelling skills, you would feel secure enough in yourself to not feel it necessary to bash people over THEIR OWN personal choice of whether or not to wear body art. Their choice. If you learned to spell, form a sentence, and present yourself intelligently, perhaps people might give your point of view a little more respect. Barring that, you just sound like an uneducated idiot babbling, babbling ...

Don't you think it's more than a little prejudicial and over the top to assume that anyone with a tattoo is low-class and working at McDonalds? And if you are 50 years old and still caring what other people (who, most likely) do not know you are thinking about what you look like, then I would suggest therapy.

Wow, skin cancer hu, well for that matter so does the sun but they haven't quite perfected the "no harm will ever come to me bubble." And since you are so worried about all the needy people out there why don't you open your home up as a shelter and whatever you do don't use your money for anything that isn't a necessity because otherwise that would make you a hypocrite since you obviously think money should be used to help others, right? Let me ask you this, how much of your paycheck goes to charity? Now tell me this, how much do you use for vacations, movies, fast food, decorations for your home, gas, clothing (if you make it yourself you can save money and send the rest to a third world country. Maybe you could make the world a better place by saying nice things to people instead of saying rude things just because your narrow mind can't see past your own ego. HAVE A NICE DAY!

Umm, what? Sorry I don't speak idiot code.

This is word for word almost the exact same comment entered by the No Tattoo profile. Did you enter this comment under a different name so it would appear there are more people on your side of the issue? That's amusing, yet pathetic. Why do you care if people have tattoos? Did some tattooed person beat you up and traumatize you early in life? Seriously, why do you care? It's just pigment on the skin. Does makeup offend you just as much or is that ok because it isn't permanent. I really am curious as to why some people are so scandalized by a simple issue of personal preference. Please, live and let live. I really don't care what you do with your life, your money, or your body as long as it doesn't affect me. Since my tattoos do not affect you, you really do not have the right to opine.

I got a damn good job and I got tattoos. that is a real close minded statement. Being Mr Clean should be the least of your worries when your that incredibly naive and judgmental. Talk about being a loser, huh.

Enter Your CommentKlee1, sorry this is late. If you want to earn the tat "Born to be bad," then you need to do a few things. First, you admit you have a small ponytail to "compensate" for going bald. You want to really be bad? Then shave your head. Now, THAT's a good look on a balding man. If you're going bald, go bald. I love a bald head, but not a half-assed bald head with a weenie little pony-tail. You have a Japanese Harley "clone." Why? With your money, Get the Harley. THAT's a bad bike. Who care's if you have leather streamers. In fact, that's VERY kindergarten tricycle. Instead, get a medium high-end Harley, DO NOT gorp it up with all kinds of junk on it (just get a really nice bike, preferably a dovetail), and some leathers. No streamers, no chrome, just understated elegance. Look at the 'REAL' bikers out there. The working businessmen who ride with clubs. Go to Laughlin, Nevada for Bike Week next year and see all the thousands of rich businessmen, like you, and what they are wearing and riding, and then model yourself. You may be born to be bad, but you've got to look the part dude. Shave the head. Lose the ponytail. Lose the Japanese and buy American. You should know better. Good luck.

Try not to do things to look cool. Trying to look cool says one thing: "you're not cool and you're trying to look that way". Do things because you want to, or to be different (in a good way).

i agree that you should nix the words...not that you should forget about words in general but not those words...they are over used and most people would roll their eyes rather to understand why you have them...your tattoo should be you in a nutshell rather its the apparent you or the underlying diary of you...be creative nobody but you should have to automatically be able to understand what you're capturing...its okay if someone asks what does that mean...as long as you know

I also agree...nix the wording choice...I'm not saying to not get words...I'm just saying not to get those...they are over used and most likely people would roll their eyes rather than to understand why you have them...I'm twenty years old and i got my tattoo this past summer...I had been thinking about the ones i wanted for awhile and when I moved in with a friend we decided to go and get one of them...I didnt end up getting the tattoo i originally wanted nor will i...my fiance thinks one is enough and i respect that...at the time of getting my tattoo what i wanted to express had changed...my tattoo is on my inner wrist to symbolize one my strength and two to honor my hands (I write poetry...a lot) its of cherry's (which at the time my friend reminded me is kinda my thing) with Irish style tribals that I altered a little to the sides I added a star on each side above is says Miserable and below it says Stranger...because in school i wasnt an outcast i had friends but i was also the girl who sat back and overserved everyone without them ever knowing me...its meaningful, creative, and mine...thats what yours should be yours...

My dear friend. Your aspirations are well understood, but you should seriously reconsider the subject of your tattoo. In general, words on a ody is a bad idea( I think so, beliefs, ideas change through life constantly).If you really want to spice up your body, look for a meaningful design, something that represents an inate value of yours, or a part of your environent. Something that can arise curiosity in strangers, and desire to know more about you. Something you can talk about miles away from home, Have fun with it!

It doesn't appear that anyone has answered your question specifically. Instead, they talked about the back. If it's a choice between upper and lower arm, the upper arm is less painful. The front of the arm and bicep area are only slightly less painful (in my opinion, having gone through a "poke test") than the forearm. However, I agree with the other person who mentioned that somewhere other than the forearm would be better because it would be easier to hide. During the hot summer, you might want to wear a short-sleeved shirt, and the forearm would, of course, show. Depending on where you work, it might be a problem. My Fortune 300 company doesn't care about small, discrete tattoos, but a large one on the forearm would need to be covered. Bottom line, they don't care if you have it, you just couldn't role up your sleeves during a meeting and having it blaring there. On a personal note, I think a memorial tat is really sweet. Were you thinking of a shield or something similar? That would be very sweet. I'm grannie age (55), have two LARGE tats of my own, and I love nice artwork. One tip: if you get a large one, PLEASE pop the extra couple hundred bucks or even two and get really good quality artwork. Good luck!

Look, ABE, it's none of your bloomin' business what anyone else does with their money. It's THEIR MONEY. They earned it to do with what they choose. That's what socialist's like you don't understand. They CHOOSE to spend THEIR OWN money that THEY EARNED WORKING on something they like. The other thing you don't understand, because you're a socialist is, this is helping many more people than it would buy just giving money to "the poor" (whoever you might mean by that ... name a specific poor person and I'll give them a buck if that will make you feel better). This helps the tattoo artist and their family by providing them with an income. This helps the bank and their employees. This helps the community businesses by having money being spent locally. It encourages economic growth. You say "give it to the poor" because you are stupid. Instead, give the poor a JOB and they can earn a living. Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to fish and he'll eat for a lifetime ... you stupid sodding idiot.

that is definitely one of the most close minded responses I've ever heard. Talk about making a judgment without knowing facts. How do you know what people are doing with their money besides getting a tattoo? Secondly, there is no medical proof that tattoos cause cancer. get your facts straight because right now you're the one who sounds like the idiot with this entire comment
