Piercings, Tattoos and Devil's Horns

Very lovely tattoo she has. Many companies are aware of the differences in todays generation and.......... But this is a different time and good for those that don't face the same stigmas.

She did pick a pretty one didn't she? And I think you're right that attitudes are changing quite a bit.

And I think the video you posted shows that you are a bit of a scamp April!

LOL, some might even say a bit of a tramp, but, their words wouldn't bother me since it's more of a reflection on those people. :D I do realize that your comment was said in a nice way and is appreciated, I do enjoy injecting humor where I can at times life's often way too short.
 

I don't know what started this whole "Gothic" thing, but what these people do to their face/head is pretty insane........IMO, anyway. What I'm wondering is, where do these people get the money to have this done???? Tattoo artists just don't do this stuff for free!

Never let it be said that being a 'scamp' is a bad thing! Humor is the only thing that makes this world bearable so we need people like you big time!

Thanks SeaBreeze. When she said she was going to get a tattoo I thought her idea for it was quite nice and the artist who did it was a real expert. There are some tattoos out there that certainly didn't turn out like the recipient wanted. But Holly's are pretty and I'll pass the message on. Don't we all love it when we get a compliment? Thank you.

That's a great story Rocky and you sound like an adventurous and open minded old lady! Hooray for you!

Love that! Thanks, Debby. And good on you, Jujube! -- mine was also a "bucket list" item.

I think I'll cross off the Polar Bear Watch in Churchill. It has become so overdone and touristy. ...sigh... But there's still one item and that's getting back to Butchart Gardens and the Empress Hotel for high tea. Did that once in 1950 -- about time to return, wouldn't you say? :D Will perhaps do one item [ still in the 'possibly on bucket list' stage ] when I go to Victoria, and that's to pretty much encircle the U.S. via AmTrak. [ I love flying; despise the airports and cramped planes ]
 
Here are some pictures of tattoos of folks that are older now. http://www.buzzfeed.com/alisoncaporimo/24-reasons-to-never-get-a-tattoo#.niRZ3rwjg4

I hope none of those folk ever get into a bar fight - too many rings/buttons/knobs to rip out!

They're a bit extreme, granted, but hey, it's their body.

I feel the same about the Care Bear I have on my left buttock ...

Two positive comments: The guy's above looks so much like an actual shirt I got fooled at first. May not be a bad idea because he can go topless and few will notice. And if you get the contour lines just right, like the woman with the green neck, you might be able to hide a turkey neck instead of wearing turtlenecks or neck scarves, when you get older. Otherwise, :yuk:

Surprisingly, for all the years I've had my ponytail and all the altercations I've been in, only one time was it ever grabbed - and that was by a woman whose brother I was restraining. :rolleyes:
 
Actually, these tattoo'd people may supply a major source of income in the future....when they mature, and recognize just how ridiculous they look...and seek out someone who can remove this nonsense. Tattoo Removal parlors may well become a common site, and employ quite a few people, in a few more years.
 
I do not have tattoos. I didn't even get my ears pierced (once) until I was 35. I have worked with heavily tattooed people in law offices (usually staff, not lawyers) and my hairdresser's arms are totally covered with them. This is a live-and-let-live issue for me. But I will never get one, even a little one.

My school girlfriend had a tatoo of her first two boyfriends on her breast. I can't help but wonder what long faces they must have now.:rolleyes:

But seriously, I Aways wanted a small tat but always chickened out. My skin is getting so wrinkly now that I don't know if I could get a decent one or not.

I see nothing wrong with tattoos - for other people - not for me. I never understood the point anyway - maybe its to make a statement - or to mark an event. By the time they came into vogue and tattoo parlors were around I was past the age where I cared.
 
I have a tiny tattoo to commemorate a personal triumph over a long and arduous struggle. It is not readily visible, and I have no regrets. I am considering adding another one on my next birthday.
 
You should see my private piercings, but I would have to charge you for the privilege...:love_heart:
 
Too much excitement can be stressful, even the pleasureable kind...:D
