Tattoos? (Contains pictures that might not be suitable for kids!)

When I'm 18 I plan on getting a tattoo on my back. My sister has one of a fairy. I plan on getting one of Lucy. But I'm having issues deciding on which one to get.

Which one do you like more?

I need to do some editing on the first one some more (the leg and logo).

I like the first one alot.

Do you have any tattoos? And would you like to show them?

Uhm... pick the one you won't regret when you're 60...

I don't really like tattoos to be honest and I actually think you might regret having "Lucy" as a tattoo in the future.

Fixed.

What makes you say that?

I like the last one the best, but I agree with the others. When getting a tattoo, you want to get something that's "timeless" - meaning not just one of your recent interests, something that's not just a fad. So many people get these types of tattoos then end up regretting it later. I definitely don't think this would be a "timeless" tattoo.

I also have a slight feeling that it would be a big chic repulsor....

Well so far...I've liked Elfen Lied for 2 years straight :D

2 years is nothing in the face of a lifetime.

I know that sounds like a long time to you, but think of if you'll like it 40 years from now. Or even 5 or 10 years. Chances are very low that you will.

I bet this isn't the reaction you expected :P

Seriously in like 2 years you will regret it though and I doubt people will like it. Also just because your sister has a tattoo doesn't mean you need to get one :wink:

Well duh, I know that just because my sister has one doesn't mean I have to have one.

Plus, if I do get bored of the tattoo...I could always remove it.

For a lot of pain and money. Believe me, it's NOT worth it!

Plus scarring!

Exactly!

Then you're left with a nasty red scar in the outline of the original tattoo, along with the feeling of stupidity for paying for something so worthless.

Damn you two for posting so fast!

Hrm doesn't seem to add up to a good thing :P

Then I'll just keep it >.>

Does anyone else have tattoos?

Then you'll regret that even more. I can guarantee that within the next couple years that you'll think that Elfen Lied is stupid as shit. When you're 60, you definitely will think it was ridiculous unless you're insane.

Why would you get a permanent branding of something that is so temporary?

Meh, you should really think this through. How old are you anyway?

When I want to get something really bad, like a piercing, I usually wait a year and see if i still want it. And yes, my mind has changed about things.

As for tattoos, just not my style.

my science teacher said that he found a cool picture and wanted to get a tattoo of it, so he waited 3 months but didn't get it.

Tattoos? Real men get branded.

Agree with the rest of everyone. For one, considering your current age, I doubt you will even like it by the time you're 18. And when you're older, it's just not worth it to have. As Burns said, this is not a "timeless" thing at all. If you want to permanently brand your body for something that you find kind of cool right now, go for it. But if you have any foresight you will realize it's not worth it at all.

Hmm, permanent tattoo of an anime chick...

Definite, definite, definite girl repulsor. Unless of course you're planning on being with a chick who is such a huge anime fan that she will forever hold you second to made-up cartoon guys.

Girls won't like pictures of naked anime chicks branded on your body.
