So stupid to think tattoos have to have meaning.

What do you define as "meaning" when it comes to a tattoo?

To think tattoos are just as shallow as the stupid meaning you put into them before getting one is actually so retarded & exposes you for the stupid normie you are & should not speak on things you have little insight into like what makes having a tattoo acceptable with that "so long as they mean something to you" bullshit.

the problem with tattoos is that they were originally, and should remain, as a signification that you have done something not done by most people eg. sailing across the atlantic or going to jail, but people now just get things because they want to and because they havent actually done anything of interest, which is cringe

This is even more shallow than getting a tattoo for no reason. What you're describing is equivealent to getting fucking video game achievements tattooed on yourself so everyone can see how cool you are. Make sure to add the date and time; you never know, you might get alzheimer's and forget you sailed across the atlantic.
>going to jail
Yeh man, that's why people in prison get tats.

>>14926601
Because there isn't a one size fits all inforgraphic telling them what tattoos and where would be /fa/ approved. You have to pick something you like yourself and then have it on your body forever. What if you post it online and people won't like it. I don't know if most people can handle that.

That will look like ass on your chest, get it somewhere flat like on your leg or hell if you want to do it big have it as a back piece, but on the chest it will look fucking stupid.

Also with face tattoos get simple shit never do detailed stuff on the face because they age like ass, so the more simple it looks the better it will hold.

Best face tattoos I have seen have been asterisk stars & simple daggers/nails stuff like that.

only retards think like this, if you are going to have something PERMANENTLY on your body then it better be because of something more than just "i think it looks cool". Your taste changes and its better to have a personal reason for the tatto. People who just scribble ink on their body for the aesthetic look like freaks 90% of the time. But if you want to lower your chances of getting a job and look retarded then go for it :)

anyone else cringe extremely hard when people start to talk about how their anchor tattoo symbolizes their love of freedom on the open road and the internal struggle they have daily after they recovered from their eating disorder? its like jesus christ man, that may be the gayest goddamn thing ive ever heard. And then they have one of these long drawn out explanations that you can tell they once thought made them deep and profound but now are literally humiliated and mortified when having to explain their tree tattoo symbolizes the growth journey they had from teens to twenties and how spiritually stable they have become since adhering to the Buddhist philosophy and achieving enlightenment through blah blah fucking blah. Its truly the most faggoty way possible to go about getting tattoos. "I thought the flaming skull looked cool as fuck so I got it on the back of my arm" is not embarrassing or cringe at all and you won't have to keep coming up with justifications for it down the road unlike a fucking word in a different language.

You just need to find a good artist that actually knows how to do them properly & hope it heals in nicely.

But yeah they are likely to age like ass but most people who get palm tattoos already have a lot of tattoos & don't really care about a tattoo not holding in 100% perfectly

Lmao, you are so fucking dumb that you can't even think of multiply reasons why people get tattoos.

Have you maybe thought that some people like the culture around tattoos & like "collecting" them from certain artists which then in turn create memories & moments in time for them to remember, reflect on or reminisce?
Like most people do when they hold onto certain items that remind them of parts of their life. (Like a shell from your favourite beach as a kid)

What kinds of tattoos are the most cringe? For me it's
> 90s style tribal
> Nordic/Viking runes if you're not Scandinavian
> Anything that has to do with your mom or girlfriend

Absolutely agree with all of these.

Certainly anything current internet culture or just internet culture replayed like memes, quotes, stupid shit that’ll be forgotten in 5 years.

Definitely “watercolor” tattoos as they’ll turn to straight blobs in a few years.

Oh yeah, anything related to religion at all, symbols, text, imagery, etc.

I just don’t understand how there are all these unique tattoo artist and we have the internet at our fingertips to find and then go and get one of a kind artwork on us yet people STILL go out and get the most basic stupid shit.

or
>im better than dirt, well, most kinds of dirt

or
>You know what I blame this on the breakdown of? Society.

or
>Howling at a concrete moon,
>My soul smells like a dead pigeon after three weeks.
>I shut my window and go to sleep.
>In my dream I eat corn with my eyes.

or, just simply
>that's how it is on this bitch of an earth

that last one is not a Moe quote, but waiting for Godot is my favourite play

Going to get my first tattoo. Either Cirno or a fucking leaf because even though I hate the people in charge in I love my country. Left shoulder.

Also get out of my country you fucking chinks

Thanks, mate. What are you thinking of doing on chest? Cause usually either you have something that extends through the upper arm and chest, or like in my case just some clouds/waves. If I were you, Id do something on my other arm and connect the ideas, I feel like it somehow better compliments the body, I like symmetry...
Then again you might have some huge chest, in which case ye you might have some good design on it.

The Kid one is based & go to some trad artist to get it all done nice bold & bright.

sublimation, temporary tattoos are the future and i can't understand why this has yet to take hold.

envision one day having a custom printed sleeve of ink fused w/ ur skin.. wear it for a week, rinse, repeat .. this will revolutionize the industry, as well as eliminate the need for 'barista' flash artists..
