Good luck but I hate tatoos personally.
I love tattoos, and I'm not a "gangsta". I just think they look awesome.
piercings all the way
Thats shallow and dumb on so many levels. Pointing out the obvious makes it cool, yes? Might as well get "lol fire is hot" on your arm.

On the subject of jobs and tattoos and shit, I'd like to know if anyone can tell me. When it comes to the Police Force, how strict are they about it all?
[QUOTE=Aries;20627512]On the subject of jobs and tattoos and shit, I'd like to know if anyone can tell me. When it comes to the Police Force, how strict are they about it all?[/QUOTE] It varies. A lot of police departments will allow officers to have tattoos as long as they don't cover (usually) >40% of the body part it is on. Check your local PD's website.
A friend of mine got into a job where they find tattoos questionable. It's on his back, that's all.
I want this as a tattoo on my wrist, in plain black [img]http://img225.imageshack.us/img225/3632/aperturescience2300x300fu1.png[/img]
[QUOTE=Mr_Sun;20616857]Take a picture now and compare it to your tattoo 20 years from now ... looks like shit doesnt it?[/QUOTE] First off I'd like to make it clear that the man below is more manly then everyone in this thread combined. Argument is futile because it's just a fucking fact, arguing here would be like arguing with gravity. [img]http://image.hotbikeweb.com/f/9124521/0802_hbkp_09_z+sturgis_07+old_biker.jpg[/img] Secondly I feel I should point out that I am in no way a tattoo expert. I have none of my own tattoos because the law prevents it from being so (however I do plan on getting some.) and thus I can only guess how recent these tattoos are but to me they look at least 20+ years old. If you where to show me this picture and tell me that this is what my tattoos will look like in twenty years time I would be pretty damn pleased however I was unable to locate examples of ink that has aged well or badly so I may be completely understating the chances that a tattoo will go bad over time.
[QUOTE=johanz;20621085]That sounds silly[/QUOTE] It is sometimes.
I kinda want a tatoo but Ill never get one. A. Think of how it will look when im 60. B. Wrecking-Balm basically destroys your skin. C. They are expensive. D. You need to get them touched up everyso often which cost money. Based on friends of mine that got tatoos, they like it for a couple months then realized it was a bit of a waste of money. But thats just them, not everyone feels that way, some people tell their life story through ink.
When I join the Coast Guard I want to get the shield tatoo on my back and a small tatoo in the shape of a stamp saying "Property of the U.S. Government".
Tattoos that are only words are dumb. Even if it's a design incorporating words, it's very hard to make it not look stupid.
[QUOTE=Saza;20621035]I have arm sleeves of a tattoo. Because I'm not planning on getting it permanant, it's like a sleeve you pull on your arm. Looks real. hard to tell it isn't. [editline]07:31PM[/editline] Oh and because it'd be weird for a person my age to have a tat.[/QUOTE] That sounds so stupid.

Think of how stupid the tattoos would look, with you looking absolutely fantastic!
I have 5 tattoos and some are pretty big, I've never had trouble getting a job.
[QUOTE=GreaseGunner;20628825]When I join the Coast Guard I want to get the shield tatoo on my back and a small tatoo in the shape of a stamp saying "Property of the U.S. Government".[/QUOTE] That sounds really stupid.
[QUOTE=Factory;20629394]That sounds really stupid.[/QUOTE] My girlfriend said the stamp thing sounded hot. It'd be small and out of the way though. Also the Coast Guard shield is just cool looking and I guess you wouldn't be able to understand unless you had the same amount of zeal as I did.
[QUOTE=Aries;20627512]On the subject of jobs and tattoos and shit, I'd like to know if anyone can tell me. When it comes to the Police Force, how strict are they about it all?[/QUOTE] well in Scotland you'r not allowed to have one AT ALL its probably different else where though.
tattoo the gmod icon thats on steam onto your forearm, make it the size of a stamp.
I should have known not to come here, because anti-tattoo douches. Sounds good. I'd do it. But I'd much rather do something to symbolize that idea rather than just stating it. [QUOTE=Dr.Strangelove;20628523]I want this as a tattoo on my wrist, in plain black [img]http://img225.imageshack.us/img225/3632/aperturescience2300x300fu1.png[/img][/QUOTE] I'm getting a smoother variation of that, so it isn't the aperture science logo, but it's just an aperture. I'm going to get it on my inner forearm, toward the top. I want it because I love photography. I'm also going to get a plain box in the same spot on the other arm. When I graduate college I'll fill it in and make it a cube.
Well, I got it: [URL=http://img411.imageshack.us/i/photovc.jpg/][IMG]http://img411.imageshack.us/img411/1458/photovc.jpg[/IMG][/URL] I'll post up a picture of what it looks like when I'm allowed to take the bandage off.
As I posted in the other tattoo thread I'm probably going to get this at some point: [IMG]http://i50.tinypic.com/2evwwoh.png[/IMG] thoughts?
that's a stupid idea for a tattoo
[QUOTE=KmScMT;20708663]that's a stupid idea for a tattoo[/QUOTE] What? The lion crest?

I wish I was unemployed so I could get tattoos on my neck.
[QUOTE=Woolley;20708863]What? The lion crest?[/QUOTE] no the guy that made that thread's one
