Possible first tattoo?[views:7696][posts:69]___________________________________ [Dec 21,2007 2:42pm - dreadkill ""] DestroyYouAlot said:Lamp said:I've tried as hard as I can to figure it out but I've seriously never understood body modification. "People make fun of me all the time for being different. I think what I should do now is get a giant picture inked on my skin so those same people will have something else to point and laugh at and I can prove further how ignorant and stupid they are, just like when they make fun of the quarter-sized holes in my ears." Have you considered the remote possibility that some folks might not be doing it for a reaction? i'm with you. i think most people get tattoos because they like them, not because they are trying to be different or get a rise out of people. |

I assume people with ink want to project an image of their interests to other people and possibly strike up a conversation or something. I don't have any ink because I want to project an image of myself to people that says "Leave me the fuck alone, now." |

| ______________________________ [Dec 21,2007 3:26pm - Lamp ""] Okay, so what's your point? |
| ______________________________ [Dec 21,2007 3:28pm - Yeti ""] that was my point. |
| ___________________________________ [Dec 21,2007 3:29pm - ariavette ""] yeah i got mine where noone could see it, same with piercings i have b/c i do it for me and noone else, just b/c you get tattoos doesn't mean you are someone who needs attention. Obvioulsy some ppl do that but not everyone |

| ______________________________ [Dec 21,2007 4:26pm - Lamp ""] Of course it is. Everything has some image tag hooked onto it whether I like it or not, unfortunately. |

Everything we do is for a reaction... Whether its your own, someting's or someone else's. I would find it very hard to think of something we do for no reaction. |

I don't have any ink because I want to project an image of myself to people that says "Leave me the fuck alone, now." This isn't true for everyone who has ink. I do believe that there are people out there that do follow this motto, esp. people with tribal or a big ol' tramp stamp. Everyone of my tattoos have very personal meanings, they are all memorials to close friends and relatives who have passed away. I did not get these tattoos so i can be the center of attention or be different or project some sort of 'imagine'. |
