Thread: Tattling tattoos

  1. #31
    I have one tat. It was put there during my cancer treatments to line up the radiation treatments, I don't even know if it's still there. If it is it's buried under my chest hair. Tat's and hardware were just never my thing.

    Being part jewish I have always known that tattoos are used for identification.

    I found a link for diy removal using magnetics and pulsed light

    What? Do you have any idea of the irony between these two sentences? I only have 4 tats, all covered by a t-shirt. All are specific, and original art. One is an American Eagle with it's wings the stars and bars drawn for me by an artist. Another is my name in it's original Runic writing. The other two something each for two of my siblings who passed away. And just because you are apparently a member of white trash anonymous, don't think my tats means I am some trailer park greaser working for minimum wage.

I've noticed the longer I go between treatments the more my tattoos fade out. The first tattoo I had removed I started treatments back in 2006. It took me until 2014 and 5 treatments to have that one removed completely. My shoulder tattoo should be completely removed by the end of this year. My goal with my elbow tattoo is to have it off before I turn 40 which is 3.5 years away.

    I am doubtful they really lower your status these days if you can cover them up for work.

    I have two tattoos. One on each shoulder memorializing my two tours in combat. I don't regret them and they are a daily reminder of the dangers of blind faith in US foreign policy... helps me homeschool my kids with a clearer understanding of my past decisions.

    This is just completely overboard..

    Some tattoos are ugly, some are stupid, it makes a lot of dudes look like criminals and it can make girls look both hot and/or slutty, but part of getting a tattoo is telling the world, "I don't give a $#@! what you think," which is actually good in some senses. Conforming to social standards can be a good thing in some ways, but it can also be a bad thing. Life shouldn't be boring and conformity leads to boring. It's all about finding a balance. Even Stefan says that some multi-culturalism and r behavior helps bring some spice to life, different foods, good music, etc.. He just doesn't want them controlling the world.

    It's true that cops will probably treat you differently, a lot of people overdo tattoos and it can look bad, but the right tattoo or tattoos in the right area can be very visually attractive. Some people really pull it off. Not for me, but I can appreciate them.

    That's my point.

    It used to be.

    It no longer is...don't believe me?

    Look out the window at the oppression we live under every day.

    It's just more "wannabeism" and the same kind of ugly attitude displayed by the morons in Idiocracy.

    Everybody walking around with a chip on their shoulder looking for some ass to kick, all except the asses that need kicking, of course.

    It another manifestation of the "bankers on Harleys" syndrome.

    You are telling the world absolutely nothing of any value.

    That's the problem with the world today. (One of many symptoms, actually, of the underlying problems.) People trying to express their "individuality" in such unbelievably shallow, meaningless ways, such as:

    Check out my tattoos
    My piercings
    My other modifications/defilements of my body
    My music
    My clothing
    My food preferences

    Stupid! Shallow! That is not true, deep individuality. It's meaningless. It's impotent. You're wasting your individuality juices trying to "express yourself" in totally meaningless ways. Use that energy and that creativity for something productive and meaningful! Express yourself in your work!

    What was Isaac Newton's wardrobe like?

    What did Michael Faraday wear every day?

    What was Beethoven's favorite cuisine?

    The truly great men, the true successes, do not try haplessly and impotently to "buck society" and "question authority" and "refuse to conform" by altering their personal appearance. Rather, like the Victorians we should be perfectly happy to be utterly conformist in our dress, our haircuts, our manners, and our speech, and be totally fearless and revolutionary in our work. That's how to have a legacy. That's how to make a difference. When's the last time somebody studied and was influenced by Galileo's tattoos?

    Nice ad hominem.
    Here is a theory: get a randomized sample of 1000 people with tattoos and 1000 people without tattoos. Then start asking question, collecting data, running background checks, etc. Which group would have higher felony rates, lower credit scores, higher illegitimacy rates, higher rates of divorces, and higher instances of substance abuse?

    The tattoo on my elbow is not a spider web and none of my tattoos are or were tribal.

    I am guessing the non tatoo people will have a higher rate of divorce . I think it more likely they would marry .

    Yawn,,
    Get it removed if you like.

    Coroner can still identify a removal,, means still identifying.

    Mine are all jailhouse. My own design.. only one done with a gun (improvised) the rest hand picked.

    the first 2 done with an ink made from spoons.

    The only fading is the color I paid $$$ for on my back.. Hand picked remains.
    Liberty is lost through complacency and a subservient mindset. When we accept or even welcome automobile checkpoints, random searches, mandatory identification cards, and paramilitary police in our streets, we have lost a vital part of our American heritage. America was born of protest, revolution, and mistrust of government. Subservient societies neither maintain nor deserve freedom for long.

    If they picked you up again how hard do you think it would be for them to figure out who you are, considering they still don't know about your tattoo?

    They identified me because of my drivers license. However, if for some reason someone were to go to ground and acquire a false I.D. then a tat would be just another data point for overcoming that manner of defense. Especially if is a visible one. We are not to the point where this is of particular worry at this time. However, every single year the Panopticon grows larger and larger. Every little data point pinpointing who you are and where you have been every single second of every day.

    Oh man, you have just taken this too far..

    Conforming to society is great when society is pushing people to conform to things like honesty and integrity in business dealings and interpersonal relationships, but conforming to society's standards of bull$#@! like wearing frilly shirts or ties is not something to be respected. Sure, a lot of great people did those things, people need to choose their battles, but I don't respect them for that. I do respect people who try and buck conforming to society when it comes to issues that are of little or no consequence.

    People who try and uphold conforming to society's standards of BS damage society by making people afraid to act outside of those standards for no good reason, which makes life more boring.

    One issue where we will probably disagree would be on modest dress. If people want to dress modestly, that's great. If they don't, that's great, too. You see it differently, no doubt, which is fine too. So if you have modest standards of dress and say that girls shouldn't show off this or that, and boys shouldn't show off this or that, fine.. but I don't like the idea of saying, "women should wear this style of dress or blouse" and "boys should wear slacks and this style of this or that". Just not a fan. Telling people to cover up is one thing, I won't do it but I won't knock others for doing that, but telling people what style to cover up with I don't like at all.

    Except all the people that get the same, meaningless tattoos their friends get.

    Rose/butterfly/dolphin on the ankle? "Tribal" tattoo?

    Ink can be amazing, but I've found that the people I've spoken to make most of their steady money on quick, stupid tattoos that can be done in a very short time. Then they feed their passion by taking on a few larger, difficult, more involved pieces from non-idiot customers.
    Genuine, willful, aggressive ignorance is the one sure way to tick me off. I wish I could say you were trolling. I know better, and it's just sad.

    Well, you are part of the tattoo group, so I will yield to your expertise on this matter that you are an illegitimate, drunk divorcee with a low credit score and a history of felonies.
