Tattoos????
When I was young, the 1960's and 1970's pretty much the only folks you saw with tattoos were military and they were usually small compared to what I see today. I don't have any and it is of course a personal choice. I see a lot of guys now with full sleeves and even neck art that can not be easily covered. I also meet lots of women now, some very young, with tattoos and not the small sexy ones only very close friends get to see, but large tats on the shoulders, legs, chests, and other places. I can't help but wonder if some of these folks are going to regret all this ink they paid to have applied. Maybe there will be so many people with tattoos that it won't be a factor when applying for employment as it must surly be for some jobs today. What do you guys think? Am I just old??

God shot me out of my mom just the way He wanted me and has decorated me with various scars over the years. I ain't gonna try and 'improve' on His work! 6 -
I live in Austin, TX and currently work in a grocery store. You would not believe what I see every day. It's almost like the people without tats are the exception. I don't have any and have no plans to get any.........but I know a lot of people that have lots and love them. Just not for me.Ricci.Wright said:When I was young, the 1960's and 1970's pretty much the only folks you saw with tattoos were military and they were usually small compared to what I see today.

Stupid waste of money IMO. 6 -
I run into many around here that went to school -Cub scouts -Boy scouts -Little League -Hockey etc... with my kids.Toolman286 said:I always think of the hypocrisy. They complain that they don't have enough money to live on, but they can spend big bucks on tattoos.
The ones with the most tattoos seem to be the biggest losers now.
Carl was the latest. In a s*** box Chevy cobalt with a garbage bag rear window
Must of had 3-4 Grand in tattoos.
Oh yeah - no job either.0 -
Many police & fire agencies will not hire people with tattoos that cannot be covered. I've seen customers walk out of restaurants after being grossed out by a server's tats & piercings.A recent scientific study found that microscopic globules of tattoo ink circulate throughout your body FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE. Whether or not this has an adverse effect on your long term health, they were unable to determine ---- yet.Neal

I could just never decide what I would like to have inked on me for ever basically. but have thought about it
my one DIL has a couple on her legs and ankle she has had for years . and some of my nephews have a few . my son's have none and don't seem to want any
my thoughts to each there own , but just me I do not get the face tats to me that is total commitment and really just look at me statement . but then again not me so do what you want there is a lot worse things people do

I've seen both beautiful and ugly tatts, on both beautiful and ugly people. I try not to judge by that alone. I have no tatts. 0 -

I though about it in the military and in other phases of my life............so far, I am ink free and at 51 y.o. I see no need to get one now. 0 -
Human beings have been decorating our bodies since the dawn of time. Nothing new there. I'm terrified of needles; my heart races at the thought of a flu shot. Tattoo? No chance. 0
