6. now where would this person get a job?
I find it hard to look at, even though I recognize his/her freedom to do so.

That scares me.

Related note: I'm hoping to get my first tattoo next month. Should be fun, if I can afford to get it.

4. I have no problem with people getting piercings, Tattoos, etc
But some of this crap like the two shown in this thread - one of these days these folks are going to wake and wonder "What the Fuck did I do to my body". I mean, this stuff is permament, when you're a little old man/woman you'll still have this stuff and for these two - it ain't gonna look pretty!

11. it ain't looking pretty now
that is sort of the point, if you do enough modifications, then you HAVE to succeed as musician, artist, club owner, whatever

if you have something to fall back on, you'll fall back on it

these dudes weren't pretty anyway, what did they stand to lose really?

14. for those of us with tattoos and piercings..
we really don't give a shit how we are gonna look when we are "little old men and little old ladies" with our tats and piercings to be honest.we have thought of this before we got them. that comment has always been a pet peeve of mine. many of us view our body mods as something more than a teenage fad which is what is implied with the "when you get older.." comment.

15. well i agree it's an odd remark

23. But sweetie, I've seen most of the stuff you've done
Edited on Mon Jan-23-06 07:22 PM by LynneSin
and it's not even close to anything like the cat person or the dude with like 200 piercings on his face.

It's one thing to be creative it's another to just go waaaaaay out there!

25. Preach on brother jonny!
AMEN!

Yes, there are a few people who don't think through the tattoo thing, but for most of us it's a long process to find the art we'll grace our bodies with.

22. Ouch.
but, hey, whatever.

Live and let live, I say.

If they wanna hurt themselves, that's their trip. Not my thang, but I can respect their desire to use their body as an artpiece.

People will start cutting off their hands and arms and call it body art.
