A tatoo!

Ok so I'm wondering about getting a tatoo.
I have thought quite much about it, and even tho it will hunt me for life
it seems ok to do it. A friend of me and my gf was at our place yesterday
and he has several tatoos and it looks awesome.

Here's the ones I'm thinking about


Or this one, The big symbol starts under the elbow and it goes around you're whole arm ending up down at the wrist.


Now, since this is my first one, the round symbol (at the bottom of pic one) is the one
I think about the most. The one that takes up a whole arm is also quite interesting but I don't know if I would want that as my first.

Pro's and Con's and critique on the symbols!

Cons-wrinkly tattoos make badass grandpa look funny.
Pros-you're gonna look really awesome for a decade or two.

But as for real advice, I have none.

get a binary tattoo - I saw one of those - real geeky:D the binary code said "Maybe I shouldn't have gotten a tattoo..."

It'll still be a nice statement in a decade or two when the skin starts to flop and sag

Pro's: A good tattoo looks pretty sick

Cons: Arm bands are so played out. They are pretty lame.

Make sure that if y ou do go ahead you know what ink the tattooist is using, if it's a one colour tattoo then different blacks are abound.

I am 32 nrly and only 4 tattoos into a sleeve - I say go for it, but if you ever need a really good job that might involve wearing short sleeves or shorts, don't have one in the obvious places that will show - sounds lame, but it's true!

i think the top 2 look awesome! i dont have any either but i am thinking of getting one.

Unless you're a rock star or a marine, any tatoo is going to look pretty dumb in a few years. Get a piercing instead. At least you can take them out when you get tired of it.

Yeah, unless the tatoo is super meaningful (ie. COmmemorative of the death of a loved one, commemorative of an exceptionally significant event) then most people's tatoos are *FREQUENTLY* going to be looked upon as a mistake in a few years.

Unless it's hella badass, in which case, more power to you.

I've seen people passed up for promotion because of body art... sad but true.

I say GO FOR IT! Leaves more job opportunities for the rest of us.

I wouldn't get any of those if i was you. They are Demonic Symbols. It isn't good for you to tattoo those things to your body.
