Bring it on...I'll post pics of mine and some of my buddies'...Let me tell you,I have a couple of buddies who have their necks and their heads done.One has ink on his face too.

I'm sure it's a "generational" thing, but it has long been a goal in my life to die with no more holes than I was born with...no piercings, bullet holes (I've come close more than I like to think about!) or knife wounds!
As for tats...I just have never found anything I think is important enough to have on my body for the rest of my life. I almost did a Stevie Ray Vaughan thing...I'd just rather buy truck parts or guitar stuff.

x2...no holes or ink for me either....i see these old people with tattoos on their wrinkly skin and i'm like.."WTF is that?" I can't imagine what all those holes is gonna look like in 30 years lol. nothing against the people that enjoy that stuff...just not for me..

I'm with ya there, on the holes thing.    no peircings for me.  The tats I'm gonna get are all pretty simple, that I'm hoping will stand the test of time   if not, no biggy, they'll be where no one will see them if I don't want them to.  Or I'll just go to WAlly's World and buy that cream to remove tats that they're going to invent in the next 40 years.

I have four one that covers my lower back, one on my chest, one on my right ankle and one on my left leg.  You can see the ones on my legs in this photo.  I designed all of mine and they have meaning to me.  My next one will be about my four month old son.  I just haven't decided what it will be yet.

allright i got a camra phone picture of the tattoo notice it's a toyota symbol the pic is fuzzy but you get the idea. he is also going to get the original toyota symbol in the center of his back.

I recently decorated my.....err......self....with this new tattoo & a new piercing.  I had to photoshop the pic a little to make it pass the rules of the Marlin board. 

It's two Leo symbols mirrored and joined together to form a heart.  Brian and I are both Leos.  Awww.

The ones that are going to look good in 40 years are the earlobe things...a couple of skin hoops flapping in the breeze on a guy in a walker...yeah, chicks dig that! Maybe they can be used to hold a cane while he's in line at Walgreen's

guess I'll play, Japanese Oni Fujin (god of wind) right shoulder- start of traditional Japanese full sleeve, then full sleeve on left arm which will feature Rajin, the god of thunder.

That's a bad azz tat. I've been wanting to get a tat for a while now. I just can't decide what to get.

[KYOTA]

thanks.

its kinda important (sarcasm) to get what you want by a talented artist cuz theres no eraser!! I have always been into/studied Japanese art so it was a given for me. Do lots of research  good luck!

whatever you decide on you better like it 30 years from now, cause you'll still have it. (unless you get costly laser removal)
That's why I never got anything, and I am sure glad I didn't. If I had gotten what I wanted when I was 20-something I would be myself today!
Not everything looks as cool later in life as it did in yer younger days, like stars on yer feet
JK! 

[KYOTA]

not true anymore, theres a new product called Wrecking Balm that totally fades undesired tattoos
