Narps Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 I think tattoos are a way to decorate your body with some artwork that's personal to you. I didnt get mine with the intentions to show off to other people, I got them for myself.When I got mine I made sure my work uniform sleeve covered it. I brought the shirt with me to be sure. Now I don't give a sh*t because I don't work. Most of my tees don't cover it but nobody cares anyway.... :) I don't think the stigma about having a tattoo is around as much anymore. When I got mine on my ankle I made sure it was where sock would cover it. Now I see people with tattoos on their hands and arms working in public jobs and no one seems to really care. San Francisco (and California in general) is much more permissive about stuff. Certainly there are more conservative companies and areas, but here in the city you see people with all sorts of visible tattoos and piercings, and all sorts of hair colors, working at all sorts of jobs. That being said, I like that my tattoos are in places where I can hide them or show them as I please.As long as they don't bite.... :D The south still thinks the old civil war is going on...I don't get it....

An (admittedly weak) effort to reference the debate about Permanent Waves being a "70s" album - and whether the "creative process" includes what happens after the album is released - a debate which was leaking into other posts late last night. Nothing to get, just being silly. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MMCXII Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 Tatoos are a great way for someone to express their individuality,along with the countless millions of others who do the same. ;-) I feel the same ways about tattoos. Uh.. Actually our tattoos are mostly all different.. Why would countless people get the same tattoo? ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
