What year are you living in that tattoos are a serious detriment? Like yeah, a tattoo on your face when applying to a government job wont do you any favors but an easily concealed by office attire isn't a game changer.

With any kind of public facing customer service or retail role, there's still a quite a lot of stigma, and that's without getting into tattoos with subject matter might be a bit more controversial.

They'd have to write JACKIE NEWMAN because it's there in the photo duh

I dunno, that DC villains tattoo that someone ripped off and even copied the guys nipple implies that they would do that.

Outlines don't exist in real life so outlines suck in representational art.

I'm guessing I've found the thread with the tattoo artist goons

This sure is an opinion.

This can't be real. Is this a troll? This is a troll.

Very clearly yes.

Like, I can draw an outline around it if you want it any clearer.

Not buying it. Using outlines is poo poo art.

You're arguing this point in a medium which has several disciplines which are entirely focussed around nothing but linework.

Like, you're not very good at this at all.

Also, what's with the disney princesses tits thing people keep saying about you, that sounds pretty bad?

These are great examples of tattoos that don't use linework, and no one mentioned anything about the ink fading over time or some poo poo. Stop being bad I guess

Ok, maybe we should take this a step back now.

Do you know what linework is?

We call it "First Tattoo Syndrome" where someone in their mid / late 20's has been thinking about getting a tattoo for 10+ years and then wants all of them ideas cramed into one piece, but not too big because they wanna know how they feel before committing to a big piece.

I'm so glad I reached the point where my thought process is "gently caress it, why not" for new tattoos.

Anybody have a link to the Jezebel article written by somebody who had a meltdown when they wanted to get a really stupid tattoo design in a really bad spot and an artist had the gall to say no to them?

And here's the artist's response (quoted at the bottom)

This is pretty great. I know a decent number of artists and have heard a lot of stories about people who only have a tattoo or 2 wanting full neck or throat pieces, and getting mad when they are denied.

I don't get the jump straight to job stoppers. I have enough pieces done now that I've stopped counting how many tattoos I have and I'm still holding off on hands and neck until I at least have my mortgage paid off.

Also, I don't want to go in the other tattoo thread yet, but I figure some people here might know: Have you ever heard that when you get a tattoo in memory of someone that you shouldn't put the complete date of their death? Someone was telling me this, and I'd never heard of such a thing. I asked him why -- like is it bad luck or something. But all he said was that's what he had heard.

Personally I'd memorialise someone with something that means something to your connection with the person, not just some boring dates. Represent your relationship.

That's the barber who makes SOOO MUCH MONEY and smokes lots of cigarettes. I don't know about the pegging, but I do remember him being into Latinas and their feet but also being racist. Maybe his name is Greg? I thought about him a while ago and was wondering what he was up to, actually. Did he ever open his barbershop in Russia?

He's a loving piece of poo poo.
