See these young couples all the time at Walmart with 1-2 small children.They don’t look very prosperous and yet they’ll both be covered with tattoos.
They probably vape also.
And we’re supposed to feel sorry for poor people.

Gonna have a 20$ bill tattoo put on my palm.
So I’ll always have a little cash on hand.

Tattoos are bumper stickers for the body.

This is the future of retail spaces. Tattoo parlors and Vape Shops.

was just talking with my fiancé about this. A person who is in our wedding has full sleeve tats and it’s going to be a very classy and tasteful wedding but all of our wedding party photos are going to have their fully tatted arms and shoulders in them.


Oh she definitely DTF...

Besides the OT, the general consensus regarding tattoos is changing. It's a lot more accepted in society, it's no longer a super taboo thing.

I remember in school growing up, it was the biggest deal. Teachers would stress how if you had any tattoos you could never get a professional job. Or if you did, you would have to have them covered at all time.

Now, it's really a lot more normalized. I know multiple people at work with tattoos on their arms, legs, etc and they don't have to cover them. Nobody really gives a shite about it either.

I don't have any tattoos, but my wife has been badgering me for couple of years to get matching tats. Maybe I will give in one day, maybe I won't. Who knows.

Face tats and neck tats, however. That is a different story. Those still aren't really mainstream or accepted professionally.

Sorry I’m old, but when I was growing up, only sailors, bikers, ex-cons and strippers/whores had tattoos.

People wanting visible tattoos should take a trip to an old veterans retirement home and see how tattoos look as you age.



I don't have any tattoos either and I know that they age poorly. But how do "new" tattoos on old skin look?

Besides "trashy".

I got a bar code tattoo in 2005, it looks like a smudge of axle grease now.

I used to frick a girl back in the early 80's that had a small tattoo of a flower on her back. Flower was pretty, pussy, eh. I've got some abrasion tattoos from cuts, fights, wrecks, stumbles and what not. Proud of some, not of some others.

How old we talking? Generally, older skin is harder to tattoo. Its less pliable and doesn't hold ink as well.

Let's say that I'm 50 years old with an average dad bod. If I were to get a beer tap tattooed above each nipple (one labeled "Sweet" and the other "Sour") how would that look?
