The Whining and Bitching Thread

What is wrong with you people? Most people don't get tattoos just to get them, they usually hold some sort of symbolic or sentimental value, along with being masterpieces of artwork. For example:

I only have one (technically two) running vertically on both of my triceps. The left one says One Shot and the right says One Kill. It's a very common Marine Corps motto that I had tattooed to remind me of my time in the Corps and the numerous people I shot and/or blew up. Also, I designed it after Dying Fetus' logo, so it has a pretty metal looking text, which is also has some meaning to me because I like metal. The funny part is, Dying Fetus has a song called One Shot, One Kill so it made it even more appropriate.

I assume you guys think that's stupid too huh?
 
Any kind of body modification I usually find intolerable. I couldn't sit with my ex when she got her tattoo. Call me a pussy if you so choose; but the thought of a needle rapidly puncturing the skin and flooding it with ink makes my scrotum clench.

With tattoos, I was one and done. I can't think of any other one I'd want beside my SPQR Roman Eagle on my left shoulder. My girlfriend has multiple ear piercings and wants more, but they're not for me.
 
Last night was full of alcohol and the reefer and three of my greatest friends. I don't regret getting as fucked up as I did at all.

But this morning my sister decided to put her shoes in the dryer. She totaled her car yesterday and needed to be driven to school before the sun was up. And my dog fucking barked at me when I got up. God dammit. Hangovers play out terribly for me.
 
Just because you take your SERIOUS BODY ART THAT COVERS 50% OF YOUR SKIN seriously doesn't mean other people don't get to call them "tats."
 
I have almost half my body tattoo'd and it hasnt threatened my job opportunities at all. In the past decade, I think tattoos have come a long way in terms of being accepted, not only in the work enviornment but just in general. In another ten years, I dont think it will matter at all how tattoo'd someone is, so long as they are qualified for the job.

Interestingly enough, while the rest of the world is becoming more acceptant of tattoos, the USMC is becoming more restrictive of them. Probably something to do with remaining "different", the excuse being to remain "professional".

I'm actually not turned on by that body. In fact, the only thing that it does arouse is my suspicion, because the hand and the wrinkles on the neck appear strangely masculine for some reason...
