I think tattoos are generally crap. I'll make exceptions, however. Most notably Dan Higgs.

Nope. Not if you get a tat of Kurt Cobain and Elvis on either arm. Next week I'm going to have Tupac tat'd on my left pec. Then Ian Curtis on my right.

yep. you can all kiss my ass.

not for me, but i know lots of people i respect who have them (good friends, my sister, an old girlfriend, etc.) -- there is nothing cutting edge or tough about getting a tatoo anymore... just go to your local gap and take a look around. not crap, though.

I got my tattoos from a friend I was living with who wanted to start tattooing and needed skin on which to practice. He was a very good friend, and a very good artist. Though I'd never had any desire to get tattoos, I told him, "just do stuff that suits me," and let him at it.

I have three big tattoos: a dynamite bomb (set to go off on my birthday) covering my left calf, an alien with an outstretched arm, offering a rose covering my right calf, and two sparrows (sparrows are supposed to help guide you on a journey, in sailor lore, apparently) hovering over a sacred heart covering the top half of my back. The friend moved away, we lost touch, but those things will always remind me of that time of my life, and the people with whom I shared it, so they are not crap.

My dad knew a mechanic years ago who had the best tattoos ever: a series of a chipmunk running up his left leg, and then running down his right leg with two bloody walnuts in its mouth. Genius.

N/C WF=5 for all the dorks (male and female) who get flash tattoos.

Wow!

You are some kind of friend!

Wow!

Most of the tats I see on people are lame and unattractive. People pick the dumbest things to implant in their skin. I am thinking that if I get one ever, it would be real bad ass that I havent yet seen before. So I would probably go all the way and get one on the white part of either one of my eyes. It would be pretty small, so I would save money as opposed to getting a normal sized tattoo on my arm or my ass, and I would imagine the sensation would be even more intense and enjoyable on the eye

Graffiti on the temple.

CRAP.
