How does Veeky Forums feel about tabletop related tattoos?

Tattoos are ugly.

thats a pretty cool one

I want an Aquila but I worry about people thinking it's nazi related.

Do people who get tattoos like this just think they won't live until they're 50 or so? It looks pretty cool now I guess but for the rest of her life she is going to have to explain it every time see wears something that doesn't cover it completely. That might be nice if she only attends magic events, but workplaces, social events, weddings, etc., etc...why would you do that to yourself. Especially because once your skin starts to sag or you gain weight or the tattoo fades its going to look much worse.

I think tattoos that have personal meanings to people are great and if they think they can handle the repercussions (covering up, maybe regretting it later on), more power to them. It just seems a little shortsighted, but who am I to judge I guess

tattoos on the back are a pretty good choice because back skin doesn't sag very much

Have you been to social events? It's 2016, nobody cares about tattoos.

I've thought about it never did it.

>A Tyranid ripper swarm burrowing into my shoulder $150 an hour covers whole shoulder
I was looking at about 3-4 hours depending how much I moved.

That was the closest one, I also wanted a cleric/paladin tattoo, holy light divinity and stuff, but I could never figure out what I wanted.

Seriously though. If you want a tattoo. Get one

>repercussions
There is not many repercussions were I live. It's not a big deal.

And I don't get the "until you're 50"
Old people look like shit. Tattoo or not, you will look like shit, unless you're exceptional.

>Not injecting yourself with nanotech to dissolve the tattoo and harden under pressure
Fucking plebs.

T H I S
No one gives a shite. I've got random ones everywhere, and no one cares about them unless you're on the topic of tattoos.

As long as you don't have "fuck the police" across your neck, in a very legible font mind you, no one cares.

If it's really an issue, cover up isn't as expensive as you'd think.

Life is temporary and you'll be forgotten ten years after you die, if you're lucky.

Live it up while you can.

Mom, why the hell are you posting on Veeky Forums?

I wouldn't want one myself but that one looks fantastic

As long as you get them somewhere where you can cover them and don't get something absolutely stupid on a whim tattoos can be really cool

Everyone is secretly judging you, you stupid fuck. Nobody takes you seriously. They're too polite to say it to your face so instead they just silently drop your application in the trash bin, where it belongs, because you are millennial trash and should die in a fire you fucking faggot. You probably hang out with classless poorfags anyway.

Man up wimp.

How to spot NEETs that never looked for a job

OR you go the yakuza path and have sleeves that are hidden under the standard shirt. Work as a contractor for it no body blinks an eye as they never have the opportunity to see them while I fuck computers up in my suit.

I dont know about tabletop ones, but I got several in prison. Shits fucked.

>Butthurt underage NEETs get mad because it has been noted that they are fucking retards who will never, ever get a real job
>"lol u underaeg band man"

kek. Enjoy your overpriced laser removal in 10 years when you realize how retarded you are.

If you wear a suit 100% of the time and none of them are visible that's different. If you're in business casual or any of that shit, and/or your tattoos are always visible, then you are an irredeemable faggot and should consider suicide immediately.

>not getting Bruno to tat up your arm based on contraband MtG cards

Top kek. I'm rolling up my sleeves at work tomorrow just for you kiddo.

>NEET
>on Veeky Forums

You'll find that most people on Veeky Forums have jobs, if only because our hobbies are often expensive.

Also, you'll find that there are a lot of fa/tg/uys that are in the army, for some strange reason. And a clown. Never forget the clown.

Enjoy your stay

>I'll roll up my sleeves while making some pleb-tier hourly wage, that'll show him

top kek

I've almost certainly been here longer than you, my friend. The shitposting is warranted because tattoofags are fucking retarded and this thread is only tangentially related to Veeky Forums in the first place.

"Most of us have money" does not mean "the unemployed 40k flufffags with sick tatz brahhhh have hella dope cash yo!" or whatever you seem to think it means.

Please keep posting.

>once your skin starts to sag or you gain weight or the tattoo fades its going to look much worse
only a little worse

>not being so indispensable that no one cares about your appearance as long as you're washed and clothed

Okay :)

Is that a starfish?

It becomes even more obvious how every minute detail matters when you start interviewing people for employment.

No not that shit, I mean the posts where you're just spouting hot garbage that's completely wrong.

It's a sped up film of a fungus hatching.

Those posts didn't exist though, since I was 100% correct in every post I made, and you are an unemployable faggot who will only ever work jobs making hourly wages.

>Tattoos are ugly.

>I have enough wealth that I can pass for middle class, but not so much wealth that I won't be read as low-class if I don't aggressively avoid low-class signals.

Earn a couple of millions, suddenly tattoos will be the way to show that you're not middle-class.

At least here in Italy

I dislike tattoos in general.

They mark you as someone "trying to be cool", and in a way that says "I don't care about the future." It just sends all sort of bad messages, like "I don't really care about my body" or "If you don't like my tattoo, there's nothing either of us can do, so you just have to deal with it."

At best, the only positive messages are that you are willing to commit to things (even if what you're committing to is stupid) and that you want to preserve a moment of your life (even if it's done in a terrible way), but compared to all the negative messages like "I idealize criminals and whores" or "I spent hundreds of dollars for someone to doodle on my skin" or "I think getting poked with needles for a few hours makes me a badass" just makes the entire idea somewhat repulsive.

>in japan

)

Behold! A travel in time, arrived here straight from the '80!

Like, really, what the actual fuck are you saying.
Why the hell getting a tatoo is not caring about the future or your body, or idealizing criminal or whores?

Being obese is objectively worse than getting a tatoo in both of these respects, like many others habits.

You seem to have difficulties grasping the fact that people get tatoos because they like the esthetic part of it.

Most people in America have no idea about fascists using Roman iconography.

Kaiser to Caesar just doesn't connect here for some reason .

Have sum homemade oh see, made with a scratchbuilt tattoo machine. There's a lot of rough little details in it but nothing you'll notice without going over the whole thing with a magnifying glass.
>muh opinion!

Wow they really struck a nerve didn't they. Y'know I wouldn't mind tattoofags if they didn't get so needlessly defensive about them, not everyone is going to agree with your aesthetic sensibilities. how can you not understand that? Some people think tattoos look cool, others are kind of neutral or decide on a case by case basis and others just think the whole concept is kind of silly. It's called diversity you bigot.

>Why the hell getting a tatoo is not caring about the future

Because you don't really care what you'll think of in the future. You can't even conceive of the idea that you might regret having a tattoo, either because of a dramatic difference in tastes as you grow older (sometimes called maturation), or that the design might not come out the way you intended and you'll be left with a permanent testament to your lack of foresight.

>Being obese is objectively worse than getting a tatoo in both of these respects, like many others habits.

And being obese is bad too. I don't understand why you even bothered bringing that up.

>You seem to have difficulties grasping the fact that people get tatoos because they like the esthetic part of it.

The "aesthetic" aspect of a tattoo tends to be quite personal, and at the end of the day, living human skin is a poor canvas for art. While I can appreciate body painting and even temporary tattoos, I struggle to understand the rationale for a person to get a tattoo in the interest of aesthetics.

It would be like a painter deciding to paint only on one canvas, as well as to parade that single canvas around.

As an artist myself, the idea that you'd commit to something like that seems genuinely silly, especially because I have friends who have designed their own tattoos, and they really should have at least waited until they were actually good designers before committing to the pen like that.

Also, yes, historically tattoos were the marks of criminals and whores. They still largely are, which is half of the appeal. Do you think that people get tattoos and think "Oh yeah, I want to be like a sixteen year old girl getting her first 'I-hate-daddy' tattoo"? No, they compare themselves to pirates and gang leaders, prostitutes and porn stars.

Yeah, it's just the contrast and colour depth in them fading. And that "ancient fucker with tattoos from another lifetime" look has a certain charm to it as well.

As long as you're not aspiring to become Captain Obesity or something in your 40s/50s you should be alright.

They're definitely right that at the moment tattoos are really faddish and that makes them sort of lame, there's nothing cool about doing what literally everybody else is doing. Hopefully that'll settle down in a few years and they'll go back to being kind of cool as opposed to painfully cliche like they are now.

This thread reminds me of a question I had for a game. Would the Yakuza take offense to someone who isn't a Yakuza, getting a tattoo in the same style that they generally get? Would they consider him a pretender, or just accept that the look has kind of fallen into popular culture and there's not much they can do about it?

Life is going to be hard for you.
At least you can live with mom and dad until your 30.
Like the rest of the pathetic losers

I'm pretty sure that person would get murdered, that's what the bikies do at least to people who copy their club tattoos (or so I heard).

Military isn't a real fucking job for 99% of the fuckers in it. I would fucking know.
It's the government's biggest fucking job program.

I brought it up because, if that is the logic with which you apporach life, you must be quite miserable, as nearly everything can be viewed with that point of view:

>cigarette smoking
>alcool
>any kind of drug, regardless of legality
>listening to hip hop music

repeating the word "fuck" in every sentence does not make you look like a grizzled veteran

>cigarette smoking
>alcool
>any kind of drug, regardless of legality
You realize listing the first two is kind of unnecessary given what you wrote after the third right? Alcohol and tobacco are drugs, legal ones.

The true question is, why are you so butthurt about something that doesn't impact at all your life that you have to come on a website to shitpost about it?

Depends on the gang, arrangement of the tattoos, and how dumb you might be acting.

Having a tattoo of Thor wouldn't get you killed by a Pagan, but acting like you're tough ass in a biker bar with one might.

Someone asked me my opinion, and I offered it.

I'm just sad that you're offended at the idea that people can judge you based on your decisions. Trying to project your own butthurt on me is also kind of sad.

I just heard it was automatic death, even most bikies aren't allowed to get their club tattoos because you have to prove yourself first, serve the club for a long time etc. I'd go with death for your game personally, gangsters wouldn't take kindly to people apparently trying to impersonate them. This isn't like normalfag tattoos where they're just trying to look cool to impress people (fuck off that's not the reason, it's okay we all want to look cool you're just human) there tattoos have actual meaning to them.

Maybe this is just Australian bikies though and other countries are different, I dunno I just heard it would be a really terrible idea to get a bikie club tattoo unless that club okayed it.

>nearly everything

>drugs and bad music

That's the entirety of your life? Shit, and you wonder why people get the idea that only idiots get tattoos?

Nah didn't strike a nerve. I totally get that not all people like tattoos, and that's fine with me. I was just laughing at the little sperg out at the end there because I have no idea what he was trying to articulate.

Oh, you're talking quite literally about copying a piece like it's flash.

Yeah that's not a great idea. That's what I meant about arrangement. How a piece is put together is usually as important as what it features. Facing a certain way, numbers in a certain order or placement, color usage.

I was just referring to the Pagans using Norse mythology in general.

>bikies
You gave yourself away even before you mentioned you were from Vegemiteville. In the US we call them bikers.

...

K, are they much different over there?

Thinking that not doing those things makes you miserable just makes you delusional.

Not really, but they're also way less prevalent than they were even 20 years ago.

Aren't the Angels big down under?

Two of my ex's both had the Malkavian Mirror tattoo.

Both of them turned out to be batshit crazy feminazis.

Coincidence, or something more?

>Nah didn't strike a nerve.
Sure mate, I always interpret posts like this as an incredibly butthurt person desperately trying to do damage control for the sakes of their fragile ego, but that's just me, maybe you're the exception who makes passive-aggressive non-posts at people when they're perfectly happy and content.

Dunno, bikies in general are though.

Women who play Vampire in general aren't usually stable. God help you if it was LARP.

nearly every lifestyle choice can be judged on the same standards, I only offered a few.

Eating, alcool, dancing, being a vegan, sunbathing, not getting a serious degree can be counted has "not caring about your future or your body".

What are you, a 50 years old father living in the bible belt?

You took a minor detail on somebody life and built a sandcastle of prejudice and assumption on it. I merely said that if you live your life, using that kind of reasoning on everything you see, you're going to be miserable

>Eating, alcool, dancing, being a vegan, sunbathing, not getting a serious degree can be counted has "not caring about your future or your body".

I'm sorry, but all you've done so far is express how stupid you are. False-equivalency and all that, especially because you're hoping to use it to distract people from all the other points that were made.
It also sounds like you're a fat alcoholic druggy vegan with a bad tan and a bad job, who listens to hip hop music and doesn't feel bad about any of that.

At least the vegan part isn't too bad, though you being fat makes it more ironic than anything.

And, I don't think someone like you should be offering life advice, since it doesn't actually sound like you're older than twenty or so. It almost sounds like you just want to justify all the mistakes you've made in your life, hoping that if other people make them you'll also feel better.

Try more projecting man. People do not need to be part of something to defend it

I work in an science/export company, we sell really fancy laboratory devices to standards labs in places.

We're holding interviews, a colleague of mine is doing the first round of selections. Girl turns up, she speaks about 4-languages, and has a doctorate in Bio-Chemistry. I'm excited.

My colleague, lets call her Doris, comes back, guess what she says "she had silly pink hair, loads of tattoos and piercings"

She literally didn't comment on anything else, I flipped and asked about her CV, her experience, my colleague barely remembered anything about her other than "pink hair".

Moral of the story: no idea, maybe that people are idiots. Maybe "the nail that stands out gets hammered down". Maybe fuck my employer.

Meh

>does not listen to metal

that was meant to be "listen to metal"

Tastefully done, sure.

I've got one of the night shift tag line flanked by a trio of skulls. It's kind of neat.

Sounds like Doris didn't want to hire her replacement

>being this triggered by people who like tattoos
>assuming that user is all those things just because he has a tattoo
>being this retarded.

That's actually worse than anything else.

...

I'm a training Ambulance Officer, but nice try homie.
No, they aren't. Maybe the negative dregs that never learnt how to interact with humans through any source other than Veeky Forums do, but they don't matter. Continue your life being an elite member of society though.

However with this said, I do cover all my tattoos when in a professional setting. Not even sure why I took this bait desu.

>triggered

Sounds like you're getting a little upset about people telling you the common perception of people with tattoos.

Don't like it? Don't get a tattoo. Hell, half the reason people get tattoos is so people think they're part of some sort of "culture". You can't try to take only the good while pretending the bad doesn't exist.

>Ambulance

Every medic I've known is covered in ink. Definitely beats the stereotypes of being either morbidly obese or an alcoholic.

>I'm excited.
>oh shit, pink hair, easy lay

I'm sure you really cared about those four languages.

redpills please go.

People that insecure are a small enough minority of the population that I don't mind pissing them off with my one tattoo.

Fuck sake even my parents kinda liked the idea and at the time they were in their fifties and about as wild as a bread and butter sandwich.

Tristan?

I'm glad you think you are "so wild" for having one tattoo. A mark of pride for yourself, I'm sure.

Overall, I don't really think it's all that bad to judge you as a twat for having a tattoo, because it's kind of clear you'd be a twat with or without one.

There's a really interesting book "The Art of Pain" by a guy called Cyril Siorat which takes an analytic approach to the cultural background of why people get tattoos, as well as their value artistically.
Admittedly it is written by someone who practices tattoo but I think it's a worthwhile read if you're trying to understand why people value tattoo so much.

Also my tattoo was for deeply personal reasons to commemorate a turn in my life that saved me from being one of the pathetic NEETs you, or some other dipshit user, was claiming that I must be for having one. Not to be a part of some "culture".

>they compare themselves to pirates and gang leaders, prostitutes and porn
you're high as fuck mate

I never claimed to be wild, god knows I'm anything but, I was pointing out that you don't need to be some sort of drugged up reject to not judge someone poorly for having a tattoo. Perfectly reasonable, well to do business men are more than capable of seeing you've a tattoo and not caring because you've a fucking doctorate and have actually done something with your life.

I've noticed that too. A lot of the other guys, old and young have something somewhere. I wonder if the mad people ITT would let us scoop their sister off the road after a car crash :^)

Nah m8, sorry.

I don't have any tatoos myself but you just need to walk around any city for a day to realize they aren't stopping people because of tatoos anymore. Guy from our local game club is a big roided up fucker with tats up and down his forearms and knees- dude's an accountant.

I definitely wouldn't get a tabletop related tatoo though. That seems way too prone to regret when my interest in different games change.

I'm not a big metal fan, but you're on Veeky Forums. Power Metal is basically the official genre of all things Veeky Forums.

Unless you're playing something weird, like FATAL or AdEva, then it's weird weeaboo theme songs.

Pretty close. I'm the guy who doesn't take things anonymous people say on a Chinese cartoon image board too seriously.
