Help me pick a tattoo (kurt cobain)

Freebase Dali · 05-02-2012, 02:21 AM

I regret getting a f*cking tribal down my arm. If I could go back 6 years and tell myself that having a non-meaning tattoo is just as retarded as having a meaningful tattoo down the length of your arm, I would.

I did, however, learn very recently (like today) that tattoo removal has stepped its game up, needing far less time for the removal. I guarantee you all that I will utilize this new technology within the next few years.

It's a shame that douchebags had to ruin tribal tattoos for the rest of us, because I really like your tattoo. It is comforting to know that tattoo removal is becoming easier to use because I have one major one that I need to remove.

Dude what tribe are you in?

I find it humorous that some of the posters here look down on getting tattoos, when it's one of the oldest and most revered art forms throughout human history. Getting something that has meaning or not, it still doesn't detract from the beauty of the tattoo. Sure, it has a lot to do with your personal beliefs but if I see someone with an amazingly well done tattoo I'm going to enjoy it purely for the visual aesthetic, and the same goes for someone having a "meaningful" tattoo. Life isn't serious, and your body isn't some sacred temple that should be free from modification. Do what thou wilt, haters.

Only as serious as you take an opinion to be... I also think 99% of your posts are nothing but inane, half-wit jokes that are boring even while under the influence of drugs and alcohol so

Well I think he does have a good point. And life isnt one or the other. People have to realize important matters such as health/family/providing are serious matters, but once the basic needs are taken care of we are essentially here to enjoy ourselves and have fun as much as people seem to forget that.

Tattooing is just one way of demonstrating to yourself or the world that you are here to have fun, and not simply become a walking zombie going to work and repeating that cycle forever. Now many people accomplish the same thing in other ways than tattoos. There is probably an infinite number of ways one can put excitement fun and meaning in their life (most will make it easier to get a job). You are not defined by what your job is but by the person you are and the things you have done for others.

Okay, but what does any of that really have to do with tattoos?
