    I’d rather be in her than in that building.

    Having that obvious joke out of the way; fuck these dumb comparisons. Though I would not recommend anyone wallpapering themselves, if she is happy this way then stop bitching. Just because you don’t like something doesn’t mean she doesn’t either. That is trump thinking

    Her tattoos do specifically have that “Here’s a blank spot where I can put some shit” feel to them.

    Like I’ve seen cool tattoos, hers aren’t. Shitty tattoos look like graffiti. And those aren’t even “I’ve got pieces of a BIC pen and some rubbing alcohol, you can draw, right?” shitty tattoos, those are “Hey man it’s your forehead. Keep this bandage dry for three days then wash it when you take a shower. That’ll be 80 bucks.” grade tattoos.

    I’ve never been a fan of tattoos. They look awful and, in the case of women distract from beauty, not add to it. That said, they can do whatever the hell they want. It’s not my body or problem and they ain’t hurting anyone.

      Maybe not all women actually want you to be looking at them thinking ‘Wow, beautiful, yum.’ So many women get so much shit from men every day all the time, often since they were still wearing school uniform. Like you say, it’s not your body and they ain’t hurting anyone. I just think it’s really easy to understand why some women want to take ownership of their skin when there’s so many arsehole men thinking they’ve got a right to stare and touch it.

      depends on the tattoo, there’s some adorable ones out there, this one is what me and my sister are gonna get because I love frogs (username) and hers is gonna be a black cat because she has a black cat

      Random tattoos that are full black just for the hell of it aren’t that interesting, however, you do you boo.

      You did the thing where you gave a very personal, subjective, opinion as if it was a pure fact. You probably meant “it distracts me from their beauty” but you wrote it as if it’s a universal truth that applies to everyone.

        Ehh I dunno… I don’t agree with him but we don’t have to preface our opinions with “this is just how I feel, but…”.

        If I say “this pizza is horrible”, it’s clear that it’s just something I think and not everyone has to share that opinion. The subjectivity of the statement kinda speaks for itself y’know?

        You did the thing where you policed the way someone else phrased their opinion by purposely misunderstanding their intent. He literally began his post by stating an opinion.

      How do you think old people feel about all the actually old and saggy things? Our actual skin becomes something unrecognizable why would what’s on it be expected to stay perfect?

        I guess what I’m saying is do they still feel it was worth it. Seeing the canvas warp over time.

        I’m also wondering if there are parts of my body that would be better if I wanted to preserve the integrity of a tattoo like my back. I dk.

    Have you seen those cars that have every bumper sticker imaginable on them? Also covered with lots of hand-scrawled signs with every random religious/cultish phrase possible. That’s the vibe I get from these tattoos.

    Just like the vehicles, those body adornments tell me all I want to know about the occupant.

    Both looks bad. It’s too many tattoos on one hand, and pretty scrambled a bad looking graffiti on the other hand.

    Graffiti is a spectrum: on one hand, you get beautiful murals that add something to the structure, making it more than what it was.

    On the other hand, you get dicks and swastikas.

    Tattoos are the same way. There’s a difference between someone having a beautiful sleeve done and someone who has TRUMP tattooed on their forehead.

      I was stuck at some train tracks in my area, and some of the graffiti on the trains left a gap around the safety information about weight limits and such.

      Not all of them did. Those that didn’t had to be painted over and re-written, but only the safety section. They left the rest alone.

      There was some mutual acceptance happening on both sides of the effort that warmed my heart.

        As a graffiti enthusiast, I can say that is definitely part of “the rules”. Graffiti has a code of conduct, depite it appearing like anarchy. Many new writers are ignorant of it. Don’t tag:

        • Personal property
        • Places of religion
        • Memorials
        • Shipping or cargo data (like those train cars)
        • Places that are kept clean/painted (it’s going to get covered frequently)

    I keep looking over the picture of the woman, trying to compare it to whatever the other image is of, and I’m not sure what they’re talking about. I’ve gone over every inch of her body and I don’t know what any of this is about. I’m sorry, what’s going on?
