Tattoos

I'm currently on my way to get more work done on my tattoo and I was just wondering, who here has a tattoo? What is it? Why did you get it? And whether you have a tattoo or not, what's your opinion on tattoos?

I have several and only three of them I don't regret. Those are: the Clash's London Calling on my leg, straight edge tattoos on the back of my arms, and "246" on the inside of my index finger.

I would recommend getting a tattoo because it stays with you your entire life... haha.. But yes, quality art is expensive. be willing to pay for it. $150 an hour for a good artist is a good deal! do not just get a tattoo because it is cost effective! so many bad tattoos have come from those situations. most of all enjoy, you are getting inked for you and you alone...

It's been a little while since I had work done. That lower side back is torture.

I don't have a tattoo, but I have seen enough horrible ones to tell you, get one if you want, but hire a good artist, with clean needles, and clean, fresh ink. And pick a good design, don't get "Seamore Butts" across your lower back, lol. Other than that, have at it.

Holy mother of gumdrops he's right on my spine.

I love tattoos but I wouldn't get one just for the heck of it. I only have 2 as of now but both are fairly big. I have a crucifix on my upper back, and a koi that takes up my upper left arm. Both have significant meaning to me and that is what really matters, it took me a while to decide on all the ones I want/have. But yes you are going to pay good money for a good artist that does quality work, which is why I don't have more as of yet!

My skateboarder friend has "Grip It" on his right foot and "Rip It" on his left. I actually think that's pretty sweet.
