I change my mind much too frequently to ever get a tattoo.


Heck, I got sick of my last avatar after how long? Like a couple months?

I stand by the first part...over a year later. So at least there is one thing I don't change my mind about...

Mind you, I'm fairly positive that this is the same avatar too...

Updated List:
right shoulder: Marine Corps custom tattoo (skull missing lower jaw with elongated fangs, red pupils, EGA on forhead, Kabar through skull, scroll reading "Death before Dishonor" and a pair of pissed off cobras through it all, their skins in MARPAT and DESPAT camo
(busy shoulder right?)
LeftPec: Superman S-Shield
Right Torso: Meat-tag (for body id in event of the worst)
back: Celtic Cross w/ Irish flag(behind heart), stencil style writing that says "Property of the United States Marine Corps, Made in the USA" (slightly above shoulder blades)
left leg: cross with my two favorite verse numbers inside (psalm 144:1 and I think it's psalm 21:4)

edit: the tat on my right shoulder is freakin ironic given what bella posted

i dont think its wrong i just think its weird that u could be like 98 and have a huge snake on ur arm

On the day that i turn eighteen i'm getting treble clef tattooed on the inside of my left wrist.

I think that i won't regret it. ever.

Tattoos aren't the problem. It's that people walk into a random tattoo parler, look around to make sure its clean/sanitary, then pick some random thing off the wall. I know that I'm getting a tattoo when I turn 18, in 3 years. I'm not going to jump into it because I know tat it would cost a lot to get it removed in the future so I'm just thinking. If I find something I like, I'll take a picture of it or write it down and put it in this folder I have for my ideas. Then in a week I go through everything in the folder and take out the ones I don't like any more.
But back to my point. Tattoos aren't the problem. I mean, If someones best friend or family member died and they decided to get a memorial tattoo so that they could feel that the person was always with them, would you put him or her down for it? I wouldn't.

It's not that God will judge you for having a tattoo...it's what tattoos use to symbolize...ever heard of paganism? Pagans worshiped idols and things like that instead of God...and they would tatoo and pierce their bodies. I personally want one too...like on my lower back...something meaningful though...so I don't regret it later.

wow! my first post. i don't think God gives a shit if you have a tattoo. that's so bizarre to me to think he'd judge you because of that. i've got two. guess i'm screwed.

Amp's Updated Tattoo List:

Left/Right Calf: Cross with the numbers of my favorite verses and psalms on it
Right Shoulder: EGA or other Military Reletaed Tattoo (depends on service branch and if I join up)
Left Upper Back (right over my left shoulder blade): Yin Yang being circled by a dragon and a tiger
Right Upper Arm: Celtic band

Tattoos are cool I wanna get one that says "Azeroth or Bust" and maybe a Star Wars tattoo as well and "South Carolina" across the back of my forearm.

In the Bible...it does say not to pierce you're body or mark your body with ink (it's something like that)(in Leviticus)...but also in the New Testament...Jesus Christ came and set us free from the bondage of the Old Law...some people say that that part is still in tact and some say it's passed. I believe that you're body is a temple of God and you shouldn't abuse the privilege of Him allowing you to live in this body for a short period of time by over piercing and over tattooing* (if that's even a word)...and as long as the piercings are in a suitable place and the tattoos are suitable images...I belive it's ok.kountry_kate3@hotmail.com

I'd be too afraid of tattoos looking ugly when I got older. i think one or two small ones looks okay, but when they're massive I think it looks terrible.

One of my friends just got the Coheed and Cambria Symbol or something, which I think he will regret when they're no longer popular...

Ohhh I want a tattoo. I once danced with a guy who had this sweet red and black dragon tattoo on his upper arm.

Björk has a tattoo of a rune-like compass character the vikings used to navigate the seas on her shoulder, it's cool and since I love Björk, the Vikings, and my Scandinavian heritage, it would be cool to something like it.

I want a tattoo...but just one. And on the back of my right shoulder so that I can choose whether or not to show it.

I hate needles too but from what I've heard about the pain of tattoos (throbbing type), I think I can handle it.....I think. I really want one, anyway.

I hate needles.

I really want to get a belly button piercing and I also want a little butterfly tattoo on my lower back. I think that would be super cute. Saddly, my mother won't let me. Damn mother. I will get the piercing in a few months when I am 18.

tattoos rock! end of discussion!
