I am disappointed that I am not on this list. I do not have a tattoo, however. I have no intentions of getting one. On the one hand, I can't think of anything that I want on me for the rest of my life. On the other hand, the Vampires (the phlebotomist) tells me I can't donate for one year after getting one.
(Does having a tattoo burnt into a piece of wood count?)

Honestly, I find even acne to be completely disgusting and tattoos are 100X more obvious than a spotty adolescent.
You know what is really bad? A fat man with tattoos on his calves. Nothing looks more ridiculous. (Well maybe someone over the age of 15 who wears shorts as casual wear, generally.)

Your obsession with mrswdk is really sad.

Gotta agree. Mutilation is disgusting, period. My appearance is decided by my chromosomes, not by some amphetamine-addled pork-fucker in a dingy shop that looks like a cross between a whorehouse and a motorcycle-repair shop.

um as I said, I have no problem with tattoos on soldiers, sailors, bikers, or 90 year old Jews
What's ridiculous is when you see a 5'7" 220 pound IT guy at Mutual of Omaha who drives a Prius all tatted up. If you're going to go tough guy you have to go all in, not tough guy a la carte.
Also why are you taking pics at a Residence Inn? I could recognize those countertops anywhere. In the words of AoN ... OPSEC.

Sorry, I just get emotional about people deliberately mutilating healthy bodies. The universe is full of things that will injure you. No sense helping it along.
And yeah, I know the damage done by a tattoo needle is pretty trivial, but little things add up. Those tiny little cells around each needle prick will never be normal again. Every living cell is precious. The universe is 99.9999999999% death. Don't add to the problem by hurting yourself.
Besides that, it's aesthetics. A normal human body is a beautiful thing. Don't mess with perfection.
