Batshit insane woman describes, in depth, how her Sons tattoo 'ruins their relationship' - Polidicks

This is just like when some sensationalist news of some stupid thing are posted here and everyone goes "I don't want to live on this planet anymore" and "Life isn't worth living after this" and so on :v:

It's hyperbole for comic effect. This is a woman who feels like she's been rendered useless because her son got a tiny picture of twilight sparkle or whatever the fuck on his arm.

This bitch sounds like one of those snobby as fuck people, drinking $200 wine and living in a huge fucking mansion, completely sheltered from the world. She sounds like one of those "Don't do weed kids, you'll catch AIDS from a weed needle" kind of person. Someone should ink a huge fucking dick on her forehead, just for laughs.

[QUOTE=Chicken_Chaser;37196603]Employers. Be able to cover it or you are screwed.[/QUOTE] Employers can't base their decision about hiring you on whether you have tattoos or not, it'd be discrimination. Unless, I guess, you had your face tatooed with a big fuck off skull or something.

I came home once in the fifth grade and had ink all over my hand where a cute girl had written shit on it. My mother flipped shit six ways from sunday. I assume my mother would respond the same way that this one did.

[QUOTE=Chicken_Chaser;37196603]Employers. Be able to cover it or you are screwed.[/QUOTE] unless you have 'cunt' written on your forehead i think most people will be fine.

[QUOTE=dookster;37196764]Employers can't base their decision about hiring you on whether you have tattoos or not, it'd be discrimination[/QUOTE] What are you talking about, no it isn't Tattoos are a choice, employers can absolutely choose not to employ someone because of their tattoos

Reminds me of this article (don't read if you don't want to loose faith in humanity) [url]http://web.archive.org/web/20080511154920/http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/comment/columnists/janice_turner/article3211999.ece[/url]

What a bitch. I applaud the kid's self control, I would have just told her "My money, my body, my rules." and walked out. I somehow doubt it's authentic though. But one never knows these days. Insane helicopter parents aren't exactly uncommon. [QUOTE=Chicken_Chaser;37196603]Employers. Be able to cover it or you are screwed.[/QUOTE] Employers are increasingly indifferent towards tats these days. It's becoming far more 'normal' than it ever has been before. 'sides, the article mentions a tiny little thing on a bicep, something that is piss easy to hide with literally any shirt that isn't sleeveless. Your point would stand well if we were discussing gang tats or something like a swastika on the forehead though.

Oh, come on! It's just a goddamn tattoo, not some drugs or stuff.

This article is also creepy as shit in that it sounds like she feels she owns her son's skin

I don't think it was that bad, the whole thing was her talking about how it's a problem with her, not with him. If anything it read like a huge apology. She even acknowledges multiple times throughout the article that her feelings are unfounded and that it's acceptable for him to get one, she just can't control the feelings and anxiety she has about it. I don't think that really makes her a "psycho bitch", it makes her a fucking mother lmao

[QUOTE=James*;37197589]It still reads incredibly creepily "His lovely shoulder" "His precious skin"[/QUOTE] a lot of moms are like this dude. mine isn't, but a good portion of the ones i know are.

[quote]So I cry instead. I have a lump in my throat that stops me from eating. I feel as if someone has died. I keep thinking of his skin, his precious skin, inked like a pig carcass.[/quote] I concluded at this line that the author of this article is clinically insane.

She still thinks that they've defiled skin that belongs to her and that it's replaced her as a mother somehow.

[QUOTE=BrickInHead;37197626]a lot of moms are like this dude. mine isn't, but a good portion of the ones i know are.[/QUOTE] Fair enough I don't see it as anything like an apology though, just lots of self-pity

My dad did something similar when my two eldest brother and sister had tattoos, didn't disown them but said some catholic bullshit about how it's a sin to have them. And by the way, my dad is an idiot and does not represent catholics in general.

[QUOTE=Madman_Andre;37197631]I concluded at this line that the author of this article is clinically insane.[/QUOTE] You wouldn't understand,Do you even have a son? huh?! HUH?!

[quote] As if my son had deliberately turned his back on a light Victoria sponge and stuffed his face with cheap doughnuts. I am aware, too, that I associate tattoos on men with aggression, the kind of arrogant swagger that goes with vest tops, dogs on chains, broken beer glasses.[/quote] She's talking like she's some rich friend of the Queen and her son is falling into the lower class just because he has a tattoo.

[quote]But I can't. For a start, I know I'm being completely unreasonable. This level of grief is absurd. He's not dying, he hasn't killed anyone, he hasn't volunteered to fight on behalf of a military dictatorship. But I feel as though a knife is twisting in my guts. [/quote] At least she realises how ridiculous she's acting.

I'm just betting that the tattoo is something like "I <3 MOM", just for maximum irony.

My mom would only be mad if i got a tatoo somewhere i cant hide it in a professional setting. She has a couple, but they are at places where she can hide with clothing Like the ankle.

[QUOTE]"It's not as if i came home and said I'd got someone pregnant." It seems to me, unhinged by shock, that this might have been the better option[/QUOTE] what is wrong with this women if she prefers that her son knocks up a random women than get a tatoo

As a guy who lives with his parents and has a tattoo this is just fucking pathetic, it just gets worse the more you read, he's [I]21[/I]. My God, I respect the guy for having the courtesy for covering up the tattoo when he is at home because I know I wouldn't.

All that text and no picture of the tattoo or even a description. There's a minute of my life i will never get back.

saw this article earlier today; really, really hope that this is just some sort of pro level trolling

[QUOTE=themoses;37198263]what is wrong with this women if she prefers that her son knocks up a random women than get a tatoo[/QUOTE] well, duh, of course the baby is better than her son getting a tattoo it's not like the baby would be born with tattoos so it's better
