go to tattoo places and look at their flash art. Most good places will have tons of it, and will not mind you looking.

Flash art is tacky and too common, you wanna get something that means something to you. TJ is on the money, pick what you want get it drawn up and pin it up in your room or office so that you see it every day and maybe even draw it on yourself a few times to get used to it.

Dont get a tattoo cos its cool. It completely goes against what its all about.

Judging by your horny posts yella, Id get an asian symbol that means suckisucki or something to that affect. You could get away with it in most places and cut to the chase at others

Thanks! But if I kept thinking about it, I'll never get to it.
Good, in that case, keep thinking about it FOREVER!!!!

Tattoos are a great way of stating that you have no respect for yourself (come to think of it, you've said that directly, and indirectly, in many of your posts already).

Surely you don't need to align yourself with the lowest common demoninator - there is more to life than being an idiot.

Hey yellafeva,

I'd recommend going to the tattoo parlor and seeing what existing designs they have. Then, take one that you like as a basis, and modify and add to it so that it fits your personal tastes. Everyone wants to have an one-of-a-kind tattoo, but it's hard to come up with a design from scratch.

Eagles and angels and such would be a cool design, and you should be able to find some existing drawings to start from.

I have a number of tattoos, many of them readily visible, and have never had a problem with them. I got my first one almost ten years ago and have never regretted doing so. I also come to work with them visible and have had no issues; however, your mileage may vary in this regard, depending upon your workplace culture. In the rare instances when my tattoos do need to be covered up, that is easy enough to accomplish with a long sleeved shirt and set of cufflinks.



The bottom line is, if you think it's for you, then it is. Go for it. Life is too short to worry about what a bunch of strangers think.

Don't pick it off a wall, from the pages of a book, or print it off the web. It's going to be a part of your body for the rest of your life, so make sure it means something special. I'd even suggest waiting a year after you decide on the design you want to see if you still want it.

If a year from now you still want it just as badly or more, then get it. If not, then you'll have saved yourself the trouble of having it removed or living with something you're not that crazy about.

I've always gone by the "Think about it for a year and if you still want it then get it" rule. You can afford to wait, considering it'll be on your body your whole life.

Blah blah blah! Shut up! "Tattoos are a great way of stating...blah blah blah..." I didn't ask for your damned Aussie philosophy. Blah blah!

"Tattoos are a great way of...blah blah blah..."

Here's a "blah!" to show you how much I care: BLAH!
