I don’t think of tattoos as trying to make anyone look particularly tough anymore. It’s a purely aesthetic choice without a lick of transgression left and I think that’s ok too.

I've already seen this thinking come back to bite a dude who got a confederate flag, skulls, roses, etc... a sort of popular aesthetic for awhile that didn't necessarily mean anything.

He had to explain himself to pretty much every black person we knew and I've lost touch with him but it's an even bigger deal now so I hope he got that poo poo covered up.

A short and to the point tale of why it may not be a good idea to get a tattoo in your youth.

Oh lord brother you dodged a cannonball there. I knew some wiccans who liked to get runes and nordic stuff. I'll bet you there are at least a few people rocking black suns with zero clue.

I went to a Burlington coat factory and copped a nice jacket but we also saw a dude who had brands tattooed on neck and body because I’m certain he thought that they implied a level of class. DC (the clothing brand), Mercedes Benz, etc. I don’t remember the others. Then other cringe tryhard tattoos on his neck that I truly hope were done in his youth, but who knows.

Agreed but at the time you could go to a kid rock concert and see that poo poo right behind a black guest rapper, duke reruns were airing and growing up my 50% black grade school with a black principal in a northern state we had history textbooks that were careful to "respect both sides of the story" if you catch my drift.

So I would have never gotten that poo poo but I didn't necessarily think it was racial commentary every single time I saw it.

Tattoos becoming more common has reinforced two things I already kind of knew but didn't have to think about too much.

First, art is completely subjective.

Second, most people's taste in art is complete trash. Whatever, you do you, if you wanna scribble all over yourself like a toddler on the hallway wall I'm not gonna tell you that you can't. Telegraphing your awful decision making ability is really just saving the rest of us time in the long run.

Looking awful is the point. Anyhow grills don't have to be expensive or permanent. I think they look like absolute deranged rear end but gotta respect the effort to troll normies.

It's weird seeing cops with full sleeve tats or neck tattoos. Used to be that stuff was an automatic no go for those jobs.

Now there's soccer moms rocking full sleeves.

When you see someone with cornrows, face tats, and a sharktooth grill this is exactly the judgement they want people to make.

I have awful tattoos and when I got them I had just gone to some of the worst places on the planet and was going to have to go to more awful places soon.

I considered that future me might regret getting these deliberately awful tattoos. I thought about future me and said "If that guy is happy then gently caress HIM! He owes me!"

and I got those awful tattoos and me and my pals laughed about it all night. For a few hours I was happy and it was one of the best nights of my life. I sort of regret it but I survived and sort of appreciate old me's sense of humor and if it wasn't for these tattoos, at present I would not fully comprehend just how little fucks I gave in that time and place.

You haven't seen what happened in that bathroom. We put up an out of order sign and told people it was a plumbing issue.

Then under cover of night we bricked over the door like it was never there and changed the sign on the men's room to unisex. This is the first time I told my secret to anyone.

Well I hear the thunder roll, I feel the cold winds blowing...
But you won't find me there, 'cause I won't go back again...
While you're on smoky roads, I'll be out in the sun...
Where the trees still grow, where they count by one...
I once thought of the perfect tattoo, and it ended up being an amalgamation of "lord, give me the...", and the tri-force. I am glad I didn't get it.

I also hope to continue to change, so present me better have something real drat important to say if they gonna tattoo it in future me's skin.

And, as always, gently caress you too past me!
