Anybody remember Bari, the user here, he went by the handle 'Richard Pryor On Fire'? He had the Washing Machine logo on his chest. Pretty boss. I know somebody in my college who has a tattoo of Lou Reed from the cover of Transformer, which is pretty boss. These are the only tattoos I've come across that I can really approve of.
Seems like everybody I know has one, though- one friend is starting to become covered in them.. weird quotes from metal lyrics, band logos, tribal shapes. Bah. I know a trio of lesbian friends who have a smorgasbord of matching Coheed and Cambria tattoos. I once knew a girl who had gotten her myspace nickname tattooed on her forearm and it was spelt wrong. If I could un-know these people, I gladly would, but I can't.
I don't think I could ever get a tattoo. Nothing is important enough to me, yet. The closest thing maybe would be some Catholic iconography, since that's not going to go away, but that's still lame and obvious. I am not in love with anybody yet, and even if I was, why would I need their name on me? THEY WOULD BE TATTOOED INTO MY FEELINGS, GUYS. Somebody defending tattoos to my loud, reactionary opinion once said that they get tattoos to remind themselves who they used to be, and so their body is a living diary or something. UM JUST GET A DIARY
