Good then you won't mind clarifying for me then.

 

So you don't think it is possible?

Possible to know anyone's reasoning without knowing the person.

 

You stated above that you think it is impossible, right?

Correct. I still stand by my claim that 99.9% of people that get tattoos do so because it has meaning to them.

If you are talking about people you know, fine.

 

If you are talking about all people who get tattoos, then by your own statement, you don't "know" it (because it would be impossible to know that) and you are just speculating.

 

Fair statement?

Where did I ever say it was anything more than my opinion??

When I first read it, I thought you presented this statement like it had a basis in fact, rather than just your opinion

"99.9% of people that get tattoos get them because the tattoo has some sort of symbolic meaning to that person. They couldn't care less if anyone else sees it or likes it, and most certainly aren't doing so because they're starved for attention."

 

Of course it was your opinion. I found it ironic that you condemned others for speculating about the reasoning for people getting tattoos when they said they viewed it as a cry for attention. Then you turned around and did the same thing, and even quantified it with a huge number.

 

When you later said it is impossible to know someone's reasoning for an action without actually knowing the person, it magnified the irony in your statements, at least to me.

I feel the same way when I argue with twotoplace in the political forums.:ohbrother:

I don't look at those discussions as you arguing with him...I look at it as you informing him of the correct path.:up:

I'm betting he doesn't feel the same. :lol2:

I'm curious as to how many folks with Tattoos have buyers remorse?

Divorced their spouse, Broke up with girl friend, football team moved from home town, had a artist that couldn't spell (I've seen those on Epic fail), woke up from a drunken evening, gained some weight and ruined a good piece of artwork?

Tons of reasons to invest in laser removal machines.

My dad got one on each forearm when he was in the Navy. Always said he regretted it, that it was one of the dumbest things he ever did.

I'd say quite a few.

The difference between people with tattoos and people without them?

 

People with tattoos don't judge others who don't have them...

Bull. Everybody judges. If not for having or not having tats, then something... Ain't a soul in this thread that can look me in the eye and honestly tell me they don't judge someone for something.

People DO get tattoos for their OWN pleasure, not the pleasure of others... Just because a person has a tattoo, doesn't mean he/she got it for YOU to look at.

I don't have a problem with tats overall, unless they're all over. :lol2:

 

Hey, some people hoard, it doesn't mean it's healthy. In other words, some people have a sickness when it comes to tattoos.

Some of those are really cool; my question is based on the general

cost associated with ink I wonder how much high some of the prices would be.

 

That leg is in the $1200 - $1500 range.

 

Neck spider $200.
