Super Awesome Tip Of The Day - a lumbar tattoo is like painting a target on your back for any experienced fighter. They will rip your head off. Literally.sms_117b said:One of these is for my back, like shoulder blades to the base of my lumber.
Number 1, my preferred one at the moment
Number 2, awesome, but needs a bit of cleaning up
I wanna get a Bar Code tattoo and under it have it say "made in trinidad" i just donno where i should get it. my best friend says he wants to get a tattoo that says "tattoo" and i promised if he got it i would get it too.
My fiance drafted up a tattoo for me gotta get off my ass and scan it -_-
Its basically a blue shield with a white axe on it that has a black cat curled around it.

Ive been debating getting one for a while now. Nothing elaborate or huge. But I know that tatoos are permanent, and I just want to make sure I'll still want it in 20 years lol.
Overall I think they can range from being awesome to being gaudy and unnecassary, it varies from person to person. (At least it does to me)

I have a 4 tattoos, 2 which I don't like anymore, and regret, thankfully they're small and hidden. I also have Sublime's 40 Oz to Freedom over my left shoulder, and it's really fucking cool, I love it.
I still have more tattoos that I am planning to get, I always wanted half or full sleeves, but these days, everywhere I go I see so many of them that I'm just a bit over it now...

I have a stylized buffalo (native american style) on my shoulder blade. My best friend has a similar one his arm his is surrounded by a whole sleeve of tattoos though. I also have a '6' with a sprocket around it tattooed on my knee. My older brothers have 1-5 with a circle in different places. For example my 3rd eldest brother has a '3' on his elbow surrounded celtic-y knot.
Underneath all our 'circles' we have a 'we miss you 2' in honor of my late brother.

Voted the "Meh, they're not too good, but whatever" option.
If I had to get one, it would be the Old Code, written in Gaelic because it'd just be more awesome, all down my back:
A knight is sworn to valor;
His heart knows only virtue;
His blade defends the helpless;
His might upholds the weak;
His word speaks only truth;
His wrath undoes the wicked.
Some of them look cool, but I just have a problem with committing part of my body to anything like that. It seems very tribal, primal, savage, in a way. Which in a way is pretty damn cool, but in another way, I'd like to be able to just make it not show when I feel like it. If you know what I mean. I don't think there's anything I could get a tattoo of that takes precedence over any other aspect of my life.
I know that people work around this by getting tattoos in places that they can just cover up, but that sorta removes the whole purpose of having one - displaying your love/loyalty or whatever, or making a statement about yourself.
Long story short: I don't give a shit if anyone else gets one. I don't plan on ever getting one. And, trying to not sound like a dick here, the Yahtzee tattoo in this thread is an exact example of my problem with committing to something. Many things I find incredibly awesome when I first experience/see them end up coming back with a stunningly mediocre taste in my mouth later when I go back and look at them. (Take the game Shattered Steel, for instance. I suppose at the time I hadn't played any better 'mech sim, but now it's a pretty "eh" game.)
A tattoo can be great to express your devotion and whatnot, but I really don't think I like stereotyping or labeling myself to the point of anything meaning so much to me.
ie: I'd never get a Horde tattoo.
I'd never get a tattoo involving a musical group.
I'd never get a tattoo involving another living, tangible person.
I'd never get a tattoo involving a game.
If I was to get a tattoo, it'd be an ideal or an emblem.

I want those chains now . Is it OK to have tatoo's on your wrists if you are going to work in a bank, or a shop, or anywhere that requires a uniform?
Anyways, I can't legally get one yet but I come from a family that has only one member without a tatoo. My brother has a very large tatoo of a Chinese dragon that covers most of his body. It goes from his lower back to the top of his neck and down his arms.

I guess they're alright but I'm not a fan of really big ones or tribal tattoos, too...chaotic if I must put a word too it.
I probably won't go through with it but if I do get one it will be these and no more. I'm thinking of getting a right wing on my right shoulder, a wing silhouette like my avatar or this one
just switch it to a right wing, vertically invert it and make it a silhouette, incidentally I'm getting a necklace exactly the same as that one as soon as I can be bothered to buy it.
and a blue rose above my right pectoral muscle and below my right collarbone, something like this
Minus the flowers in the background.
and being the parkour nut that I am I'll probably get this

I think tattoos are pretty awesome, don't know if I'll ever get one myself though, I'd probably be afraid of regrettting what I did once I reach old age.
For me, the tattoo would have to have a meaning, like, signifying a child's birth or something similar. The only tattoo i'm getting is when i'm married, it will be a celtic knot on my cheast, symbolizing everlasting love (celtic knots do not start or end).
I've got several, including a half sleeve and a complete back piece done in black Borneo style.
I love them, but much prefer the ones done for a specific individual. Nothing worse than just choosing a design from a flash book and then seeing someone else with exactly the same tat. If you're going to have something on your body for ever, make it unique!
