man, and I was gonna get a skull with a tip hat and eyeballs...... :lookingup:

As long as you put some thought into making it look like part of you and not just a picture you slapped on yourself somewhere, I have no issue with the content of the tattoo.

I also never really got into the whole SIMPSONS thing.  The only grown-up cartoon I enjoy is the occasional episode of KING OF THE HILL.

Well said.  I have this friend of mine who just gets tattoos of the stuff he likes, to make himself look cool.  He had Freddy Krueger on one arm, and the words "thunder one" tattooed in Japanese on his other arm, because Guitar Wolf is his favorite J-band.

He acts like it's some pinnacle of manhood, including criticizing those who don't get tattoos.  The guy's a real jerk on other fronts, but this will do for now..

it's going to be a symbol of where I'm born, the so-called Voodoo City New Orleans :bouncegiggle:

It's also a nickname I got when I was playing a soccer game- I scored 7 goals in one game! :bouncegiggle:
yeah no.

Some of these are pretty creative...

A woman wearing full-back panties is a lot more appealing to me than the same woman wearing a G-string.  This may just be more of my usual anachronistic attitudes; but my generation dictates that women wear thongs in order to be "hot." 

Just Say No to Butt-Floss. 

I hate thongs too!  From what I hear, girls like the thongs, not only because they look snappy peeking out of the back of low-rise pants, but because they eliminate Visible Panty Lines.  Who the heck cares if you have visible panty lines?  Because, someone might actually know you're wearing – oh my word – UNDERPANTS?!  I agree that panty lines look bad when your undies don't fit properly, but is it really a big deal if someone can see the faint outline of well-fitting panties?  Have girls actually been approached by men who have said "Excuse me, m'lady, but I just couldn't help but admire the symmetry of your panty lines."?  I would totally love that, but I don't think it happens. 
It's unfortunate though that my husband loves them.  I still won't wear one.

Nothing I've ever said to any ladies lately, but there again, married life does that to you.  :teddyr:

There are only two kinds of tattoos I think work. 

First there are the big macho man tattoos worn by big burly tough guys.  The kind that look like they can do demolition work without using anything other than their fists.

The other kind are the tribal tattoos.  And these only work if you're actually a tribal person.   If you understand what both "pants" and "shirt" are, then you're probably not one of these.  ... and you're probably not reading this on the internet either. 

Anything that doesn't fit those two categories just looks tacky.

And most likely photoshopped. I'd imagine that tongues would be a nightmare to tattoo since they don't stop moving ever slightly when stuck out.

I prefer short hair on women.

I'm the same way.  I also like brunettes. :teddyr:

I prefer red heads. :wink:

Me too. And I married one. Yay for me!!!!
I don't always talk about bad movies, but when I do, I prefer badmovies.org

Myself, I may be getting a tattoo.

I've since narrowed it down to Slimer from Ghostbusters or a Killer Tomato. :wink:

Ditto. As soon as I land myself a job that actually gives me hours, I'm going to save up to get a tattoo of my first gecko on my shoulder. I might design it so that the tattoo is of her curled up like an urobouro, but I've got tons of time to work on that (what? I've had a couple of years of art training now; there's no reason why I should let someone else design something like that for me when I'm perfectly capable of doing it myself).

I don't like hot dogs.  The very smell of them gets me kind of nascious.  Funny too because I used to eat them a lot when I was a kid. 

I'm not a fan of mustard unless its the really hot variety you get in Chinese restaurants.

That's somewhere I seem to differ from everyone I know. I much prefer the hot mustard on egg rolls over plum sauce. I always have to make sure it's included when we order out for Chinese. Usually, no matter how big the order, there's one packet of hot mustard, if that. I have yet to find a hot mustard at the supermarket that tastes like the Chinese mustard, and there aren't a whole lot of ethnic grocery stores where I live.

But I do like the regular yellow mustard a lot too, and most other kinds.
