I remember my 1st trip to family services (we were foster parenting), I thought the government program to tat everyone on welfare was going really well.

I love tattoos. No two are alike. Can’t tell you how many criminals I’ve arrested (and how many dead bodies get IDd) from their tattoos.

That being said, I don’t trust anyone with even a small tattoo.

No doubt, you are correct.

I spend a lot of time in airports every week and the number of people with neck, hand tattoos is ridiculous.

One of the artists that tattooed me also did a few for Flea, I always say FU to the world, but knew that I might have to provide for the wife and kids someday, so until I had millions in the bank, getting visible tattoos was a bad idea.

What I find scary these days looking back is how my full body tattooed buddies would call ME crazy! (I guess I was an aggressive type).

Even in the construction industry, tattoos will halt the climb up the corporate ladder.

A lot of these douchebags with shitty tattoos don’t even work or pay taxes because they are on FEDGOV assistance, the definition of “making it” these days includes a disability determination.

Nice blackwork.

I’ve noticed a lot of intolerant look-down-upon comments in recent weeks

The church lady types that disapprove of many things are not new.

You have been here five years longer than I, and I have sure noticed the holier-than-thou preachy sorts here for all that time.

Almost all convicts in state prisons have tatoos.

‘Nuff said.

[Rome2000]

This place was rabidly anti-catholic back in 2000, not into the religious forums anyway but the Taliban has nothing on a lot of the jokers on here.

“...male waiter walked up and was covered in tats and had piercings in his ears, eyelids and nose. I nearly threw up...got up from the table and walked my ass out!...”

There is an ice cream shop in San Antonio about 80 yards from the Alamo. I walked out of it with my children in tow because the guy had... not only tattoos but those big disks in his ears and other piercings. He just did not look like a good clean food service type.

Back up your personal observations with facts. You cannot, therefore, they are mere opinions. Classist opinions, no less. The use of buzzwords like “trash” , “lower class”, “unsuitability” is a tell.

No, he is right. It is low class and trashy.

Let me guess; you have one and you are awesome and successful and well adjusted, right? I hear that from all of my felons.

>> Won’t date chicks with any tattoo <<

How does that work with a tatoo in the nether regions?

I mean, do you demand a complete inspection before asking for the first date?

[wardaddy]

I’m Lenny kravitz tan now so it’s pretty faded

I guess these are the only women who would pass muster with you as a HR hiring director, since they also lack ear rings, which are a body piercing:

In the halcyon days of my misspent youth, tattoos on women were a tremendous time-saver; allowing me to quickly distinguish between the possible and the probable. Smoking served a similar function; and, regarding a tattooed woman who smoked, it was simply a question of when, not if.
